Key Finding
"Staff get good training, but no permanent manager, staffing pressures, and medicines safety issues hold it back."
Safety & Risk
3/10
✕
We identified several concerns with medicines management. Systems for monitoring fridge temperatures, where medicines were stored, were not being completed correctly... a topical medicine left unattended
Staff Culture
4/10
!
Staff told us that they did not always feel supported and shared mixed feedback. One staff member stated, “Sometimes there is low morale, there have been some divides. Certain staff members have been clickily.”
Staffing Levels
4/10
!
Staff provided mixed feedback regarding staffing pressures with some telling us they had enough time... “It's ridiculous. It's hard. They wanted residents to have three showers per week. Which is impossible”... staff recruitment records were not always fully completed
Training & Dev
5/10
!
Systems were in place to ensure staff received training, and staff had completed the required training
Management
2/10
✕
the service had not had a registered manager since 1 August 2025
Programmes
3/10
✕
Care plans and daily records showed people were encouraged to take part in activities such as playing board games and creative activities
Points to consider
No permanent manager in post, so leadership and oversight are not reliable.
the service had not had a registered manager since 1 August 2025
Staff often feel stretched and short of time for care like showers, and new staff checks are incomplete.
