| 2019-07-30 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Alpha Community Care received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because critical safety and governance systems failed. Risk assessments were not followed (leaving one person at risk of accessing dangerous fluids), bathrooms and areas of the home were unhygienic with mould and damage presenting infection control risks, and quality assurance audits failed to identify or act on these concerns. Whilst staff were caring and people's care delivery was effective, these fundamental safeguarding and management failures meant the service could not be rated higher. |
