Canwick House is a residential care home which has been run independently for more than 30 years. It provides care and accommodation for adults 65 years and older. The home is registered for care of people living with dementia. It has accommodation for a maximum of 20 older people in a single house. Bedrooms are arranged over two floors. At the time of our inspection there were 17 people living at the service. There were 18 health care assistant staff working at the home to provide care for residents. Staff were supported by a manager, deputy manager, housekeeper and administrative staff. There was an activities coordinator who led a range of activities with residents three days a week.

We found the following examples of good practice.
• There was a visiting pod in the garden which could be accessed without visitors entering the home. The pod had a glass screen to separate visitors and residents and was heated and had ramped access. This meant that visits to residents were supported in a way that ensured visitors to the home would not spread infection to residents or staff. • Staff wore appropriate PPE correctly and had made a video for visitors about how to wear PPE, which had subtitles in different languages. • Staff took additional measures to reduce the risk of infection such as using removable chair covers which were washed daily, social distancing of residents in communal spaces and cleaning of regular touch points with antimicrobial products. • Managers had adapted ways of delivering meetings, handovers and training to reduce unnecessary staff contact.
