Read the rest of CQC's summary
We found the following examples of good practice.
People were supported to socially distance in communal areas. A robust COVID-19 testing process was in place, and management had clear oversight of this. Management were aware of the steps to take should tests not be collected as arranged by pre-booked couriers.
The premises were clean and hygienic. There was a cleaning schedule in place with frequent touch point cleaning undertaken. A large, accessible garden was available for people living at the service.
The manager had researched and ordered clear panel face masks to support staff who would benefit from the ability to lip read.
Newsletters and information produced by the provider gave helpful information to staff, such as wellbeing suggestions and a COVID-19 vaccination 'myth buster' to encourage vaccinations.
A contingency plan was in place which detailed steps to take in case of emergencies during the COVID-19 pandemic, including useful contact details.
