Working at Riverdale Court Care Home Ltd

No activities coordinator, so the role is mostly routine personal care with basic untailored activities.

At the time of our assessment there were no activity coordinators in place, which meant staff were responsible for arranging activities.

Medication errors like late Parkinson's doses and missing daily checks on controlled drugs.

1 person who had Parkinson’s Disease was routinely given their medicines late... stock checks of Controlled drugs were not carried out in accordance with the organisation’s medicines policy.

New manager approachable but oversight gaps mean care records and risks are not always properly managed.

Systems for auditing the safety and quality in the service were in place but were not always effective in addressing areas for improvement.
