✕
Very few activities on day of inspection, no activities coordinator yet though school visits weekly.
Points to consider
No activities coordinator and very few activities, so the role is mostly routine personal care.
We saw very few activities take place on the day of inspection and there was limited interaction with people.
Gaps in specialist training for dementia and challenging behaviours, leaving staff less equipped.
staff had not received specialist training in dementia awareness or how to manage behaviours as challenging.
Risk assessments and incident follow-up not always done properly, plus medication storage issues.
Risk assessments were not always reviewed and updated following incidents to mitigate further risks.
