Working at Charnwood Lodge

Some medication errors and poor storage like unsecured oxygen mean safety checks aren't fully reliable yet, even though managers fixed them quickly.

staff had not completed appropriate and ongoing training in safe oxygen storage and use; and oxygen was not stored securely. Medicines administration records (MAR) were not always completed accurately... staff were not accurately recording fridge temperatures

Staffing is adequate and flexible but nothing special, with no info on low agency use or stable long-term team.

There were sufficient staff to meet people’s needs and staffing was deployed flexibly

No dedicated activities coordinator or specialist programmes, so the role is mostly personal care with some community outings added on.

I go out into the community on a regular basis... like going to the cafe... shops... cinema... farm... play on my iPad
