Madeira House

“Date of assessment: 10 March 2026. Madeira House is a residential care home for older people living with dementia, and physical or sensory impairment. The service can support up to 51 people. At the time of this assessment there were 22 people living at the service. We completed this assessment to follow up on information and concerns shared with us since our last assessment. At our last assessment, we found the service was in breach of legal regulations in relation to good governance and staffing. At this assessment we found enough improvement had been made and the provider was no longer in breach.”

“The service was safe. The provider and registered manager had developed a positive learning culture. They had responded to concerns raised at our last assessment and made improvements at the service. Prior to admission, an assessment of people’s needs was completed, and people were protected by effective safeguarding processes. Risk was mostly well managed, but in some instances, necessary guidance and risk assessing was not in place. Staff were well trained and safe recruitment checks were completed. Service cleanliness was good, but there were some infection prevention and control shortfalls in the kitchen. Medicines were well managed.”
