Points to consider
Staff vacancies mean some shifts get covered by agency workers, even after reducing beds temporarily to manage it.
there were a number of staff vacancies and this had meant at times using agency staff to help cover some shifts. As a result they had voluntarily put a temporary stop on one bed to reduce the capacity to three people until more staff were recruited.
Only basic activities like trips to parks and arts and crafts, so the role is mostly routine care.
