| 2019-08-06 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Friary Lodge received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because critical safety risks were not properly assessed or managed, particularly around choking hazards and modified diets, and quality assurance systems failed to identify these shortfalls. Whilst the service demonstrated good care standards, compassionate staff, and positive relationships with people, the lack of robust governance and safety monitoring meant risks to people's wellbeing were not adequately addressed. |
