We carried out this inspection under Section 60 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 as part of our regulatory functions. This inspection was planned to check whether the provider is meeting the legal requirements and regulations associated with the Health and Social Care Act 2008.
We received information of concern about visiting arrangements at this service. This was a targeted inspection looking at the infection prevention and control measures the provider has in place. We also asked the provider about any staffing pressures the service was experiencing and whether this was having an impact on the service.
This inspection took place on 26/01/2022 and 01/02/2022 and was unannounced.

About the service: Cleveland View is a care home that was providing personal care to 49 older people and people living with a dementia at the time of the inspection.
People’s experience of using this service: People told us they were happy and spoke positively about the support they received. People’s independence was promoted and they felt their voice was heard.
Risks to people were assessed and addressed. Emergency plans were in place. Medicines were managed safely, however, we have made a recommendation about the management of some medicines.
Staff were supported with training, supervision and appraisal. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible. The policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
People received personalised support based on their assessed preferences and needs. A wide range of activities took place, which people enjoyed.
The management of the service was committed to monitoring and improving standards. Feedback was sought and acted on. The service worked in close partnership with external professionals to develop and share best practice.
