"Responsive management, friendly culture and strong safety practices, but staffing gets tight when people call in sick and activities lack a dedicated coordinator."
New electronic medication system reduced errors with daily checks; detailed risk assessments; all safeguarding reported to local authority.
All staff spoke with said they recommend the home and it was good enough for one of their own relatives; friendly homely culture.
Enough staff on shift per rotas and observations, but one person and staff said sometimes not enough, especially when staff off sick.
Staff trained in dementia and other subjects deemed necessary, confirmed good quality; supervisions every three months and Care Certificate-aligned induction.
The registered manager was responsive and had acted on feedback throughout our inspection; audits showed action plans completed when issues identified.
Activities were diverse with personalised one-to-one sessions using people's past jobs and skills; chapel and community services.
Staffing levels are adequate but staff say it gets tight when someone calls in sick.
Staff we spoke with also said sometimes there was not enough of them, however, it was only when staff went off sick.
No dedicated activities coordinator or structured programme, just some one-to-one sessions done by care staff.
Activities were diverse, and we saw how the staff had used some information about people's previous jobs and skills to develop some personalised one to one activity.
