Hillbrook Grange residential care home providing accommodation and personal care to up to 41 people. The service provides support to older people.

There are a range of shared facilities including adapted bathrooms, lounge and dining areas and a secure outside space.
What inspectors found
Improvements have been made to the management of medicines since the last inspection; however, we found people were still at risk of not receiving their medicines safely. Staff had undergone safe recruitment checks prior to working the home. People were cared for by staff who understood how to safeguard people and how to report any concerns. The home was clean and tidy, and people were supported to receive visits from family and friends.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
We have made a recommendation about the implementation of individual risk monitoring charts and a recommendation about maintaining up to date staff training.
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.
Systems and processes to ensure oversight of the service were not always effective. Audits completed had not always actioned the concerns we found on inspection. We identified a repeated breach and a new breach of regulations. The management team were helpful and quick to investigate and provide assurances when we fed back our findings during and after the inspection. Staff were complimentary about the manager and people gave positive feedback about the care provided by staff.
