About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 17 September 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Crecy Care Home is a 'care home'. People in care homes receive accommodation and nursing or personal care as single package under one contractual agreement. CQC regulates both the premises and the care provided, and both were looked at during this inspection.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Crecy Care home was registered for 40 people. There were 35 people living in the home at the time of our inspection. People had a variety of care and support needs related to their physical and mental health.

What inspectors found

People were supported by staff who knew them well and were committed to ensuring they had good lives. People received support that was relaxed and familiar and we observed care and respect between staff and people living in the home. Staff often went out of their way to make people's lives happier.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

There were enough staff and they were deployed to meet people's needs.

People were supported by staff who understood the risks they faced and how best to reduce these risks whilst encouraging independence. Staff were confident that any concerns they had about a person's welfare would be acted on and they knew how to contact safeguarding agencies if this was appropriate.

People received their medicines as prescribed for them, and in a safe way.

People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives, and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible, and in their best interests. The policies and systems in the service supported this practice.

People lived in a home that was kept clean and infection prevention and control measures were in place to reduce the risks associated with Covid-19. Staff were fastidious about hand hygiene.

Staff felt supported and understood their roles. The systems in place to monitor the quality and safety of the service were robust and the registered manager was responsive to people's requests made during our visits.
