Not covered in recent targeted inspection; older 2020 report too dated (>2 years).
New interim manager appointed while recruitment for permanent underway, staff positive and feel listened to, but leaders did not always address audit issues or mitigate risks timely (Governance score 1).
Noticeable effort for community access including remembrance service, ladies’ night, wish tree, pub/coffee shop trips, market visits.
Medication errors keep happening despite audits and fixes, so daily meds rounds carry risks.
repeated medicines errors which the auditing had not picked up on... the same issue had happened again
Only an interim manager with no permanent one yet, and audit problems not always sorted quickly.
new interim manager had been appointed while recruitment for a permanent manager was underway... issues identified through audits... were not consistently addressed, and risks... not always mitigated in a timely manner
Staffing is adequate for safety but rated low overall, so workloads might feel stretched sometimes.
Safe and effective staffing Score:3
