2023-09-30Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementSnowdrop Place Care Home received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because there were significant gaps in record-keeping, risk management, and governance systems. Although staff were caring and responsive to people's needs, inconsistent documentation around medicines, repositioning, and fluid intake meant people's safety could not always be assured. Additionally, quality assurance systems failed to identify these concerns, and auditing processes were not effective or robust enough.
