Working at Barlavington Manor

Lots of medication errors and risks like choking or scalding not managed well, so you could be putting people in danger without realising.

Between March and June 2025, trained staff had made 65 medicine administration and recording errors... Risks were not always identified and mitigated

Managers do not oversee risks or quality checks properly, so problems like poor risk management slip through.

Governance systems and audits were not always effective... The provider did not have effective governance systems to assess, monitor and drive improvement

Staff get training but often do not use it right for things like safety or meds, meaning you have to figure it out on the job.

Staff received comprehensive training but had not always applied their learning to their practice. This included areas relating to health and safety, administering medicines and managing risks
