Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2016-03-09InadequatenewUnratedInadequateThe Orchard received an Inadequate rating because it failed to make sufficient improvements following previous warning notices. Despite some progress on staffing and fire safety, significant breaches remained in medication management, staff knowledge and training, safeguarding understanding, and dignity in care. The registered manager's oversight was insufficient to identify or prevent poor practice, and the service continued to pose safety risks to residents.
