Working at Red Court Care Home

No permanent manager in post, even though a new experienced one has applied to register.

At the time of our inspection there was no registered manager in post. A new manager had been in post for several months and had submitted an application to register.

Staffing is adequate but relies on regular agency workers who know the home, and they are still recruiting to fill vacancies.

There were enough staff to support people safely and regular agency staff were used who knew the home. Recruitment was taking place to fill vacancies.

Only standard mandatory training, no specialist courses or funded qualifications.

Per 2019 comprehensive inspection: Staff completed regular training... mandatory training covered subjects such as fire safety, food hygiene, infection control... In addition, staff received face to face training relevant to their role such as diabetes care and management and pressure ulcer prevention and management.
