During a routine inspection
We found people were suitably supported and that their care plans were in place and up to date for staff to follow.
The medication procedures for ordering, receiving, administering and recording were checked by us and we found that the home carried out these procedures correctly and safely. However, the medication storage room temperature could be improved upon to ensure medication was stored at the recommended temperature.
We looked at the equipment used within the home to assist people with their day to day lives. We found that there was enough equipment that it was serviced and maintained correctly and that faulty equipment was dealt with appropriately.
The home dealt with complaints when they arose. People told us they would talk to the manager if they had any concerns and know they would be dealt with. We had not received any complaint about this home.
