Highbury Nursing Home

“Date of assessment 16 December 2025 to 16 January 2026. The assessment was conducted to review the progress of the service since our last inspection in June 2023. The inspection team consisted of 3 inspectors, a specialist nurse and an expert by experience. At our last inspection we found 4 continued breaches of regulations. These were regarding how people’s safety and wellbeing were monitored, the training provided to staff, how people were protected from the risks of abuse and neglect and how effective the provider’s systems were in making sure people received good care.”

“At this assessment we found sufficient improvement had been made to the training provided to staff. This meant the service was no longer in breach in this area. However, we found 3 continued breaches regarding monitoring people’s safety and wellbeing, protecting people from the risk of abuse and neglect and how effective systems were at ensuring people received good care. In addition, we also found the service was in breach of regulation around seeking consent from people. We have assessed the service against ‘Right support, right care, right culture’ guidance to make judgements about whether the provider guaranteed people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices, independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. The rating of the service has remained requires improvement overall.”
