Points to consider
Staffing levels are okay to cover the basics but one resident said they wish staff could spend more time chatting with them.
People told us that generally there were enough staff available to support them... However, another person told us, 'I do wish they [staff] could spend more time with me.'
Activities are basic group things like bingo, crafts, and gardening with no full-time coordinator, so shifts can feel routine.
Organised activities provided included arts and crafts, games, bingo, cooking and baking, pamper sessions and gardening... Some people told us they wanted more activities provided for them.
