Read the rest of CQC's summary

We found the following examples of good practice.

A visitors protocol was in place and everyone was temperature tested, completed hand disinfection prior to entering the home and completed a declaration of health.

People who came into communal areas were monitored by staff and all communal areas cleaned thoroughly after use. Staff actively encouraged people to be occupied in their own rooms throughout the day whilst isolating.

The registered manager was pro-active in following recommendations from the local authority. Infection control champions supported the registered manager to ensure infection control practices met required standards.

The service used people's individual communication methods in its approach to supporting people with learning disabilities to understand why the pandemic meant changes to their day to day lives.

The registered manager told us that the staff team has been consistent and they are proud of their efforts to keep people safe.
