What inspectors found
Kingsgate had a homely, caring environment and promoted a positive culture. The atmosphere in the home was warm and welcoming and staff were friendly and considerate. They treated people with kindness and had developed positive relationships with them. There were systems and processes in place to keep people safe. Staff supported people to have maximum choice, 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
The premises were very clean. National guidance was being followed with regards to Covid-19 infection prevention and control; to ensure practice was safe and people were protected as much as possible from contracting Covid-19.
There were systems in place to check the quality and safety of the service. However, quality assurance systems needed further development to give a full overview of the service and inform an ongoing improvement plan. This would complete the quality monitoring cycle and show the service was continually driving improvement.
