"Excellent management and varied activities create a positive culture, but medicines safety issues and recruitment gaps need attention."
We identified concerns with medicines... two people were at risk of seizures but within their medicine risk assessment and care plan there was no information recorded for staff... no information recorded in people’s care plans on how to manage and monitor side effects... staff did not always monitor the medicines refrigerator appropriately.
Staff overwhelmingly told us they enjoyed working at the home and they felt supported by the registered manager... 'The culture of the home is good we are an honest hard-working team, and we are very supportive team, we are a big family.'
There were enough staff... However, we found gaps in the employment history in the three records we reviewed, we brought this to the providers attention, and they took prompt action to address this.
Staff had received training about the MCA and Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS). Records showed staff had completed relevant safeguarding training.
People and their relatives spoke well of the management team, one person said, 'The manager is very nice, very pleasant, always available to be seen if her door is open.' Staff also spoke very positively... 'She is amazing'
The home had a variety of activities which were developed in response to people’s interest... summer of sport activities to coincide with the Olympics and Wimbledon... resident animals such as ducks and a dog... inhouse gym and local shop... monthly supper club.
Gaps in medication care plans mean staff might not know how to handle seizures or side effects for some people.
