About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 3 August 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

St George's Residential Care Home is a care home providing accommodation and personal care to up to 41 people in one adapted building. The home provides support to older people and older people who are living with dementia. At the time of our inspection there were 33 people using the service.

What inspectors found

People were safe and protected from abuse. Risks to people's safety had been identified and managed. People received the care they needed because there were enough staff to support them. People received their medicines safely and as their doctors had prescribed. The registered manager had systems to learn and share lessons from incidents to ensure people were safe. People were protected from the risk of infection because staff followed good infection prevention procedures.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People's rights were protected because the management team and staff understood their responsibilities under the Mental Capacity Act 2005. 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.

People received person-centred care which met their needs. People told us they would recommend the home. The provider had invested in making improvements to the accommodation and had identified further areas for improvement. The staff worked in partnership with other agencies to ensure people received the support they needed. The provider and management team were aware of their responsibilities under the duty of candour. They were open and honest with people and their relatives when incidents occurred.
