Key Finding
"Strong safety and a supportive family team culture, but activities lack innovation and long-term staff stability is unclear."

7/10
✓
Per 2018: Staff: 'The [registered manager's] door is always open... approachable. The place is well managed... We are like a big family here... very supportive.'
Programmes
6/10
✓
2022: Activities co-ordinator 30 hours/week for one-to-one. Per 2018: Coordinator ran exercise, sing-alongs, doll therapy, knitting, pampering, in-house shopping, trips.
Points to consider
There's an activities coordinator with varied sessions like music and trips, but nothing specialist or innovative to really enrich the working day.
Per 2018: 'physical exercise session... sing-a-long... doll therapy... in-house shopping, trips to the local community'
Staffing covers needs well with extras for tough times and better pay, but no details on long team stability or unhurried care.
Per 2018: 'There were enough staff to meet people's needs... responded promptly'
