Some staff training was out of date when checked.

We noted that some of the training had just gone beyond the expiry period.

some of these had not been done recently... neglected due to a period of the registered manager being away.

Care staff have to run basic activities like bingo and quizzes themselves.

We observed staff running an activity during the inspection which was carried out in an engaging and lively manner.
