What inspectors found
People felt safely supported and enjoyed good relationships with consistent staff who understood their individual needs. Recruitment practices were robust to help ensure staff were suitable to work with vulnerable people. Individual risk assessments were clearly detailed to ensure people had safe care and this information was known by staff. Medicines were managed safely although we made a recommendation about improving recording where people needed medicines 'as required'. The home was clean, with infection prevention and control measures in place. Clear information about COVID-19 was available in line with current guidance.
