There are individual activities programmes to meet persons interests, abilities and needs. The home has an open visiting policy and visiting is encouraged. Staff care for residents in a friendly, dignified and professional manner, promoting good relationships between residents and staff. The food provision at the home is good and varied, and residents choices are ascertained and respected. The heathcare needs of the residents are identified and met, to maintain their well-being to the optimum level. Staff were seen to communicate effectively with residents and there was a good atmosphere in the home. Overall medications are being well managed and the one shortfall identified should be easy to address. Clear procedures are in place for the management of complaints and safeguarding adults issues, and these are adhered to, thus protecting the residents.

Infection control procedures are in place and are being adhered to. The home is being appropriately staffed to meet the needs of the residents.

A list of residents food preferences is recorded for each person and the weekly menu is drawn up to reflect this. Residents are weighed each month, and where there is a marked change action is taken to refer them to the dietician via the GP.
