Representatives from CQC undertook an unannounced visit to the home on the 18th December, 2018. The report has rated the home good across all of the key areas for being safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led.
The home provides residential care for up to 96 older people, some of which are living with Dementia. The report highlighted the high standards the home has maintained since its last inspection, and praised the handover and work of the new manager. Resident and family feedback about the care they receive was overwhelmingly positive.
The report also highlighted positive interactions between staff and residents that were both friendly and supportive and that the dignity of the residents’ is protected at all times. A CQC oral health specialist also attended and reported that oral hygiene was of a good standard amongst the residents with access to Dentists when needed.
Ratings are given based on observations of the home by the unannounced CQC team, and on conversations with staff, residents and their relatives. The report is part of CQC's programme of inspections.
