Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2018-05-02Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementSt Michaels Lodge received an overall rating of 'Requires Improvement' because whilst some progress had been made since the previous inspection—particularly in resolving a breach relating to Mental Capacity Act compliance—significant concerns remained around inconsistent staffing levels, incomplete quality assurance systems, and gaps in safeguarding procedures such as Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards applications. The service demonstrated good caring practices and responsive care planning, but leadership and governance needed strengthening to ensure sustained improvements.
