Key points from CQC's visit

  • The home was divided into areas based on people’s needs, but staff were able to work across the whole home.
  • There were usually enough staff to keep people safe at Kingsland House and the home was clean.
  • Some staff had gaps in their knowledge about their responsibilities.
  • We spoke to people and relatives about care at the home and while some relatives said they felt staff numbers were low, people we spoke to, and care we observed, showed safe staffing numbers.
