"Staff feel supported by nice managers and enjoy a positive culture with strong safety practices, although activities lack variety until the new coordinator starts."

Accidents and incidents were recorded, and we saw evidence of analysis and lessons learnt. Staff were aware of their safeguarding responsibilities. They knew how to raise concerns and were confident that if they raised concerns they would be dealt with promptly by the registered manager.

Programmes
5/10
!
An activities coordinator had just been employed and was waiting to start. We witnessed staff undertaking activities during the inspection to enhance the quality of life for the people living at Beech House.
Points to consider
Staff do basic activities for now, as the new activities coordinator is not started yet, so the role lacks variety from specialist programmes.
