Clare Mount

“Date of assessment: 29 January 2025 to 19 March 2025. Clare Mount is a nursing home providing accommodation and personal care to 18 people with a variety of conditions at the time of our site visits. Most of the people at the home were living with dementia and other cognitive impairments. The home is registered to provide care for up to 29 people over 2 floors in one building. This inspection was carried out to follow up on warning notices issued to both the provider and the registered manager, at the last inspection.”

“We found the service was still in breach of 4 regulations and enough improvement had not been made. The provider had failed to ensure they consistently provided safe care and treatment, person-centred care, that they met the requirements for the need for consent and overall governance of the service. Medicines were not always managed safely, people’s risks were not always mitigated, the home environment was not always clean and safe, consent to care and treatment was not always in place, people did not always receive person-centred care to meet their individual needs and the home did not have effective governance systems to monitor and improve the quality and safety of the service. Clare Mount has now been rated requires improvement or inadequate for the last five inspections. This meant there was a of a history of failing to respond effectively to serious concerns raised by CQC or other stakeholders.”
