Malsis Hall – Mental Health Care Home with Nursing

“The service did not always make sure the management of medicines and treatments were safe. The records did not always support staff to safely administer medicines While improvements had been made, we found the quality of record keeping was not always consistent. For example, some people continued to not always have consent recorded and people who were unable to make their own decisions did not always have mental capacity assessments and best interest decisions in place. We found not everyone had up to date risk assessments in place.”

“We found the living environment to be clean, tidy and hygienic and there were enough staff to provide safe care. We found staff had up to date training and they were safely recruited and inducted. Leaders had a shared vision with staff of improvement needed to make sure people living at the service received high quality care. Leaders were visible in the service, and they had a clear plan to drive improvement and consistency.”
