2023-04-25InadequatenewUnratedInadequateFarm Lane House received an Inadequate rating because the service failed to protect people from harm and abuse, did not manage risks effectively, and created a closed, disempowering culture that did not reflect best practice for people with learning disabilities. Multiple safeguarding concerns were not properly reported, essential care guidance was not followed (such as PEG feeding and pressure relief), medicines were stored unsafely, and staff lacked understanding of key legislation including the Mental Capacity Act.
