Points to consider
No permanent manager in place, just an interim one, and oversight missed problems with medication and cleaning.
There was an interim manager in post who intends to register with the CQC, who was overseeing the day to day running of the home. We found the manager's checks on the environment and medication had failed to identify the issues we found.
Medication stock counts did not match records and some creams were left unlocked in bedrooms, risking wrong doses or harm.
There were five discrepancies identified in the number of medications stored in the home, at the time of the inspection. Prescribed creams were being stored in people's bedrooms and not locked away.
Staffing is adequate to meet needs but nothing special, with no details on staff staying long-term or agency use.
People felt there were enough staff. One person told us, 'They (staff) come when I need them, I don't have to wait long.' Staff were recruited safely in line with the provider's procedure.
