What the care home does well

Detailed documentation is available about the services and care provided at Seaview House. The manager and staff have the best interests of people in mind throughout their work.

The manager and staff seek the views, advice and skills of other related professional personnel to achieve this. There is a robust recruitment policy in place. Staff training and development programmes are comprehensive and kept up-to-date. The manager and staff work very hard to maintain a comfortable home for people and do so with the views and wishes of service users.

What has improved since the last inspection?

There is very clear evidence that the manager and staff continue to provide and improve the services and care provided in a very proactive and inclusive manner. Care planning methods continue to be developed.

What the care home could do better:
