Burlington MewsCare Home is a newly registered service, registering with the CQC on 24 November 2025. Due to this, considerations were made during our assessment that understands the service is a work in progress. At the time of inspection, there was no registered manager in place, and the service was being overseen by the nominated individual.

There was a good learning culture where incidents were investigated and improvements made. We found that there were enough staff with the right skills and experience to maintain a level of safety. However, there were not enough staff to actively promote creative ways to improve people’s lives. People were protected and kept safe. Staff understood and managed risks. Managers made sure staff received training, but regular support to maintain high-quality care was inconsistent. Staff worked with all agencies involved in people’s care. The facilities and equipment met people’s needs. People were involved in assessments of their needs. They monitored people’s health to supported healthy living. Staff involved those important to people in people’s best interests where they did not have the mental capacity to make specific decisions.

People were treated with kindness and compassion. They treated people as individuals and supported their preferences. Staff protected their privacy and dignity. People had choice in their care and were encouraged to maintain relationships with friends and relatives.

Leaders and staff did not always have a shared vision and culture based on listening, learning and trust. Staff did not always feel valued, listened to or involved in decision making. The provider worked with the local community. The management team did not always support staff morale, wellbeing, development and progression.
