About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 29 June 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Scarbrough Court is a residential care home providing nursing and personal care for up to 58 people. The service provides support to older people including those who may be living with a dementia and/or a physical disability. At the time of our inspection there were 48 people using the service.

What inspectors found

People felt safe and systems were in place to support staff to maintain safety across the home. People and their relatives commented on the very thoughtful and caring nature of the whole staff and management team.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

There were enough suitably recruited staff available to meet people's needs and keep them safe from harm. Staff were well trained and supported in their roles to maintain good skill levels and well being.

Medicines were generally managed well. We have made a recommendation about this to further enhance procedures.

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.

The home was clean and tidy, and staff followed effective infection control procedures.

People received a choice of food and drinks to meet their needs. We did receive a small number of negative comments regarding meals and the registered manager was going to address these. The home was well adapted to the needs of people. We have made a recommendation about outdoor spaces to enhance this.

A range of quality monitoring checks had taken place and were going to be reviewed after feedback to enhance processes.
