2022-11-17Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementThe Firs received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because whilst the service demonstrates good care quality and effectiveness, there are persistent safety and leadership concerns that need addressing. Specifically, risk assessments and care plans are not always clearly coordinated, medication management protocols are incomplete, and quality assurance systems do not consistently capture lessons learned from incidents.
