About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 1 December 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Ash Grove is a residential care home registered to provide accommodation and nursing care for 48 people. There were 32 people accommodated in the home at the time of the inspection. The home is set in its own grounds in a residential area of Burnley. Nursing care was not provided in the home at the time of the visit.

What inspectors found

People told us they felt safe living in the home, and they were happy with the service provided. Staff understood how to protect people from harm or discrimination and had access to safeguarding adults' procedures. There were sufficient numbers of staff deployed to meet people's needs and ensure their safety. We found shortfalls in the recruitment of new staff. The provider and manager took immediate action to address these issues. Risk assessments enabled people to retain their independence and receive support with minimum risk to themselves or others. People were protected from the risks associated with the spread of infection. The premises had a satisfactory standard of cleanliness.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People received their medicines safely and were supported to maintain good nutrition and hydration. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice. People's needs were assessed prior to them using the service. The provider had appropriate arrangements to ensure staff received training relevant to their role. New staff completed an induction training programme. Staff felt supported by the management team.

Management and staff had developed friendly, caring and respectful relationships with people living in the home. People were treated as individuals which helped protect their dignity. People's equality and diversity was respected, and care was tailored to their needs, routines and preferences. Staff knew people well.

People were happy with the way the service was managed and staff told us they enjoyed working at the home. The management team monitored the quality of the service provided to help ensure people received safe and effective care. People asked for more opportunities to provide feedback about the service. The manager therefore agreed to increase the frequency of residents' meetings. The manager was supported by the provider.
