What the care home does well This home had a friendly and a supportive atmosphere. Staff on duty were knowledgeable about service users support needs and the staff team worked together well. Service users are involved, as appropriate, in the day-to-day planning of their own care and in the way the home is managed on a daily basis. What has improved since the last inspection? Records kept included details of the food provided to service users. Staff had been trained in mental health awareness. What the care home could do better: Doors in some corridors were marked/dirty and need cleaning and/or redecoration. The carpet in the groundfloor corridor looked dirty and in need of cleaning or renewal. Staff induction training records should be signed and dated by the trainer and the trainee. - Please note that this information is included on www.bestcarehome.co.uk under license from the regulator.
