"Staff feel supported with sufficient staffing, but no registered manager yet and nurses behind on training hold it back."
There was a lack of consistency across the various parts of some people’s records... leaders and staff were aware of this issue and work had recently started to review... it will take a further period of time to complete.
Staff still felt fully supported in their role and said they could speak to the manager at any time. The recent staff survey showed 80% of staff felt they had access to good career opportunities and 79% felt they received the feedback they needed to grow.
Staff said there were sufficient numbers of staff to provide people’s care... Leaders said they were now fully staffed for nurses and only used agency carers to ensure they had a ‘buffer’... Thirteen of the 25 people... provided negative feedback about staffing levels.
Records showed not all nurses had completed their annual objective setting meeting or had a supervision in 2024. Not all nurses were up to date with their clinical skills training.
The manager told us they were in the process of submitting their application to CQC, in order to become the registered manager for the service.
