From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 3 August 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Merstone House is a residential care home providing personal care to up to eight people. The service provides support to older people and younger adults with who have mental health diagnoses. At the time of our inspection there were eight people using the service.

What inspectors found

People were supported safely by staff who knew them well. People were protected from the risk of abuse by staff who had received training about safeguarding and who understood how to report any concerns. Infection control procedures and measures were in place to protect the people from risks associated with COVID-19.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

Staff had received medicine training and their competence was assessed to ensure they were following safe medicine practices. Staff were recruited safely, and pre-employment checks were completed to make sure they were of good character.

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 registered manager was accessible and approachable. The culture of the service was open and inclusive. People and staff felt supported by the leadership within the service. Quality monitoring and governance was effective, and people's views were used to make changes and improvements.
