Key Finding
"Staff feel well supported with tailored Namaste activities, but poor management oversight, low staffing, and medication safety risks hold it back."
Safety & Risk
1/10
✕
We found several safeguarding concerns related to medicines administration errors. For example, two people had missed their pain medication which was a controlled drug.
Staff Culture
6/10
✓
All staff we spoke to told us they felt well supported, sufficiently trained and could seek support from management if they required it.
Staffing Levels
1/10
✕
At times we observed no staff presence in communal areas and this impacted people receiving support in a timely way.
Training & Dev
3/10
✕
Staff had been trained on how to help people move safely; however, we observed unsafe practise from staff and were not assured that staff are skilled despite training provided.
Management
1/10
✕
We found widespread shortfalls in the way the service was managed, in particular a lack of management oversight.
Programmes
7/10
✓
The service provides Namaste care specifically tailored to people living with advanced dementia, namaste sessions are run by care staff who are trained and not by the activity staff at the service.
Points to consider
Staffing levels too low with no staff in communal areas so care is delayed and people have to wait for help.

Safety risks high from medication errors like missed pain meds and unsafe moving and handling.
