About the service

Wentworth House provides residential accommodation for up to 14 older people who do not require nursing care. The home has two floors. Two lounges and dining areas are available on the ground floor. Parking is available on the forecourt of the home. At the time of the inspection 8 people lived at the home.

What inspectors found

We found shortfalls in the procedures for the recruitment of staff. We have made a recommendation about this. In addition, not all maintenance checks had been completed and were out of date. The manager was aware of this and took steps for the checks to be completed during the inspection process. There were sufficient staff to meet people's care needs. Safeguarding training was mandatory, staff were aware of the processes to follow to enable people to be safe. Designated staff kept the building clean and tidy. Staff were seen to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) as latest guidance stated. Risks were assessed and monitored to ensure individuals safety and promoted their independence within a risk framework. People received their medicines safely.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

The manager had a training programme to support staff to improve their skills and knowledge. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible. The policies and systems in the service supported this practice. The manager had systems to reduce the risk of malnutrition and monitor people's food and drink intake to ensure people received appropriate care.

There were auditing systems to maintain ongoing oversight of the service and make improvements where necessary. Surveys had recently been sent out to people, relatives and health and social care professionals. Quality assurance systems ensured people were able to give their views of the service. People spoke positively with the way the home was managed, one person said, "The manager is around now all the time which is helpful."
