What inspectors found

Eden House was exceptionally well led and caring. The provider continued to deliver outstanding care. People, relatives, staff and professionals gave especially positive feedback about the care and compassion management and staff showed. The provider's vision and values placed people, relatives and staff at the heart of the service. Staff were enthusiastic and motivated to go above and beyond to meet people's needs and wishes.

Read the rest of CQC's summary

An enthusiastic and dedicated management team led the home with compassion and respect. The home had an extremely positive ethos, with people, relatives, staff and health professionals describing the home in exceptional terms. People and relatives felt their views were valued and listened to. The management team similarly valued this feedback and used it to enhance people's care.

Staff knew how to identify and report safeguarding concerns. Potential concerns had been referred to the local authority and investigated. Management also investigated incidents and accidents and acted to help keep people safe. The home was clean and tidy throughout. There were enough staff to meet people's needs and new staff were recruited safely. Medicines were administered safely.

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.

Questions to ask when you visit
