| 2022-10-20 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Donnington House Care Home received a 'Requires Improvement' rating primarily because of significant failures in leadership and governance. Although care delivery across Safe, Effective and Responsive areas was consistently good, the registered manager lacked essential knowledge of regulations and regulatory responsibilities, and the provider failed to implement adequate oversight systems to monitor quality and safety. This absence of governance and scrutiny meant serious concerns, including inadequate fluid monitoring records and poorly guided medicines protocols, were not identified by management. |
