Points to consider
Staff numbers are enough and they cover for each other when someone is off sick, but no info on long-serving staff or very low agency use.
Staff told us 'There are always enough staff, we cover for each other if someone is off sick' (per 2019).
Activities include group sessions, reminiscence, massage and a cognitive pilot, but no specialist programmes like Namaste care or staff trained in therapies.
