Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2024-03-09Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementThe Knowle Care Home received a Requires Improvement rating because of ongoing breaches in safe medicine management and insufficient governance and oversight. Whilst the home demonstrates good care in some areas and staff recruitment practices are sound, issues around medicines administration records, lack of person-centred care culture, and inadequate management oversight of risks and incidents have persisted since the last inspection.
