How long it has been running

CQC has published 3 overall ratings for it (2015–2019), starting at Requires improvement and improving to Good.

The rating is 7 years old. CQC decides when to return based on risk, so age alone is not a warning sign; still, ask who the manager is now.

The CQC website holds 3 reports for it, the latest from 23 July 2019.

Inspection findings in brief

  • People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives.
  • People were safely supported and protected from harm or abuse.
  • Staffing levels were safe, however staff told us they were extremely busy and felt more staff would benefit the home.
  • However, we did speak to the deputy manager to ensure all creams were labelled.
