| 2022-05-25 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Walfinch West Suffolk received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because of significant shortfalls in safe care, effective governance, and responsiveness, despite staff being caring and treating people with dignity. Critical breaches were identified in recruitment procedures with safety checks not completed before staff started work, inadequate risk management plans that failed to guide staff on managing complex needs, and weak oversight systems that did not identify these problems before inspection. |
