This service was dormant on the date we wrote this report. Dormant means that is not providing a service to people. This is because it was temporarily not providing a service (for example closed for refurbishment). We inspect services by using information from people who use the service. If there is no one using the service, we cannot do a full inspection and award a quality rating. Until people start using this service, we will follow our guidance on dormant services. This means we will do a random inspection every twelve months. You can read more about this in our guidance called How we manage dormant services, which is available on our website www.cqc.org.uk What the care home does well: What they could do better: If you want to know what action the person responsible for this care home is taking following this report, you can contact them using the details set out on page 2.
