Risks and safety monitoring systems were securely in place; staff understood safeguarding procedures and made appropriate referrals.

Programmes
6/10
✓
There was a lively, jolly vibe in the home, with a good range of activities available... chair exercises, singing and games... pet dog... local children's group had visited.
Points to consider
Staff numbers are now enough after they boosted them following the last inspection, but no details on staff staying long-term or agency use.
The provider had increased staffing levels immediately following the last inspection.
Varied activities like games, exercises, pets and children's visits make the day more fun, but no dedicated activities person so it depends on care staff time.
Staff engagement with people had been given high priority through increased staffing levels and training. There was a lively, jolly vibe... activities captured people's attention, and staff engaged people spontaneously as well as organised group activities.
