Points to consider
Staffing is enough for basic safety but care staff rarely get time to chat with residents or give emotional support because they are stretched with other tasks.
Staff said there were enough staff to care for people safely, but they rarely had time to sit and talk to people or offer emotional support.
No activities coordinator anymore so care staff have to cover activities but often don't have time, leaving long gaps with no stimulation for residents.
an activities organiser was no longer employed at the service and activities were undertaken by staff... there were long periods of time throughout the inspection, where people were left unsupported in communal areas and lacked stimulation.
