About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 5 July 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Cumberland Court is a residential care home providing accommodation and nursing care to up to 20 people. The service provides support to older people, some of whom are living with dementia. At the time of our inspection there were 17 people using the service.

What inspectors found

People's care plans and records were not always well completed. The quality of the service was regularly monitored through audits. Where shortfalls were identified these were not always addressed in a timely way. We identified areas where further improvements were needed in relation to people receiving appropriate oral care and the general tidiness of the environment.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People were not supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff did not support them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service did not support this practice.

People's risks were managed safely. Staff knew people well and understood the risks associated with their care and support. People were protected from the risk of infection. Staff understood safeguarding risks and procedures and knew what to do if concerns were raised. People were supported to receive their medicines when they needed them. There were enough staff, who had been safely recruited, working in the service.

People were supported to have enough to eat and drink throughout the day. Staff received regular training and supervision to ensure they had the knowledge and skills to support people. People were supported to maintain and improve their health with support from health care professionals.

There was a positive culture at the home. Feedback from people, visitors and staff was good. The provider and care manager were committed to improving and developing the service.
