Working at Brambles

Medicines were safely managed, however medicine administration records were not always completed according to the provider's medicine policy. Although best interests decisions had been completed they did not always specify the issues a decision was required for.

Staff told us there was usually sufficient care staff on duty to provide people with safe care. The registered manager told us in the event of staff being sick or unavailable they used bank staff who were familiar with the home.

Records and photographs showed us that people were offered the opportunity to participate in a range of occupational and social activities. Social activities included swimming, and visits to the beach and local attractions. On the day of our inspection we observed a group of people were going out for a boat trip.
