About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 8 November 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Brooklands Nursing and Care Home is a small residential care home providing personal and nursing care to up to 8 people. The service provides support to people with acquired brain injuries and complex care needs. At the time of our inspection there were 7 people using the service.

What inspectors found

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.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People were supported safely, and the provider had plans in place in case of emergencies. There were enough staff to meet people's needs and the provider ensured staff were of good character. One person told us, Staff are kind, caring, welcoming. They are good. Every single one of them." The premises were clean, tidy and maintained.

The service put people at the centre of the care they received and was focussed on delivering person- centred care and support which met people's complex needs. Feedback we received included, "I cannot fault them. They are absolutely fantastic." And, "I would say the care is excellent." Staff understood their roles and responsibilities. The provider monitored the quality of the service using a range of systems.
