Report published 16 May 2025
“We completed assessment visits to Windmill House on the 18 and 26 March 2025. This is a service for older people, people living with dementia and people with physical disabilities or sensory impairments. At the time of our inspection there were 53 people living at the service, and 1 person in hospital.”
“At our last inspection completed in May 2023, we identified a number of breaches of the regulations in relation to the provision of safe care and treatment, good governance, safe staffing levels and protecting people from the risks of harm and abuse. As an outcome of the last inspection, we imposed conditions on the provider’s registration at this location, requiring them to provide monthly updates to the Care Quality Commission (CQC) demonstrating a return to compliance with the regulations. This service has been in Special Measures since August 2023. The provider demonstrated improvements that have been made. The service is no longer rated as inadequate overall or in any of the key questions. Therefore, this service is no longer in Special Measures.”
