Medicines were not always managed safely, and robust infection, prevention and control procedures were not embedded.

“Staff did not always have the most up to date information they needed. Care records did not always reflect people’s current needs, and we found some conflicting information to some records. Improvements were required to ensure staff monitored people’s care and evidenced good outcomes for people.”
“People did not always receive person-centred care. An activities co-ordinator was in place; however, all staff we spoke with told us people lacked meaningful activities. We also observed a lack of activities taking place.”
“Improvements were needed to quality assurance systems to support ongoing improvement at the service. We received mixed feedback from people and relatives about the service being well led and if they felt listened to. Improvements were required to ensure the service sought feedback and gave staff, people and relatives opportunities to raise concerns or suggestions, to help improve the service. Staff felt supported in their roles and told us they felt able to raise concerns. Most staff and professionals told us the service had improved under the new registered manager.”
