About the service

From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 16 July 2021. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.

Nesbit House is a residential care home providing nursing and personal care for up to 60 people. Peoples' needs were varied and included those living with dementia or requiring nursing in bed. The service was arranged across three floors with one floor dedicated to people living with dementia. At the time of the inspection only two floors were in use and there were 26 people living in the service.

What inspectors found

People told us they felt safe in the service. One person said, "I feel very safe because things are well organised here." Without exception, relatives told us they felt their loved ones were safe. One relative said, "[Loved one] is undoubtably safe there. They were very good during COVID and locked down early." Staff completed safeguarding training, and this was up to date. People received safe care and treatment, medicines and risks were both managed safely.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

People and their relatives were involved in decisions about their care and their dignity and privacy was respected. People were encouraged to be independent. One person said, "I can make my own choices and get up when I want." Another person said," I am very much independent and can do what I like."

The registered manager had an open-door policy and staff had a lot of confidence in the management team. One person said, "The manager is great. It is very well run and organised." A relative said, "They have a good manager there, he will always make time for you. I would definitely recommend it." There were robust quality assurance processes in place to monitor all aspects of the service.

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.
