Inspection history
| Published | Overall | Change | Transition | AI summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015-10-14 | Inadequate | new | Unrated→Inadequate | Lymewood Nursing Home received an Inadequate rating because it failed to provide safe care due to persistent staffing gaps and unsafe management of people with choking and swallowing risks. Critical concerns included incomplete staffing rotas with unfilled shifts, some staff unaware of residents' choking risks, incomplete nutritional records, and lack of continuity in care provision. The home was already subject to enforcement action from previous inspections, and these ongoing failures meant safety risks remained unresolved. |
