What inspectors found
From the Care Quality Commission's assessment published 7 October 2026 (assessment visit 13 July 2026). Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
This assessment took place on 12 of August and the 18 of August 2026 and reviewed the quality and safety of care provided at the service. The provider had made improvements since the previous assessment, including addressing previous breaches of regulation relating to person centred care, dignity and respect, need for consent, nutrition and hydration, safe care and treatment and good governance. Some improvements to quality were still needed but there were no breaches of regulation. People, relatives and professionals spoke positively about the service and told us they felt safe, supported and cared for.

People benefited from a safe environment with effective safeguarding systems, good partnership working and a strong focus on learning from incidents and concerns. Staff understood people's individual needs and risks well and worked closely with healthcare professionals to support positive outcomes. The service demonstrated particular strengths in supporting people's health and wellbeing, with access to a wide range of healthcare professionals and rehabilitation services. People and relatives gave highly positive feedback about the quality of care, support and end-of-life care provided.
Staff treated people with kindness, dignity and compassion. We observed positive interactions throughout the assessment and found people were supported in a person-centred way. Activities, social engagement and opportunities to maintain independence were promoted through a variety of approaches, including dedicated activity staff and innovative initiatives such as Namaste care. Staff morale was positive, and both relatives and staff spoke highly of the registered manager and leadership team.
However, improvements were still required to ensure all systems operated consistently and effectively. We identified improvements were needed to ensure processes and recording for medicines management, monitoring of care governance oversight, the application of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and aspects of record keeping were consistent and identified where improvements could be made.
The provider responded positively to feedback throughout the assessment and took immediate action to address some concerns identified. Further work was needed to embed improvements and ensure oversight systems consistently identified and addressed issues before they affected the quality of care.
