| 2020-03-17 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Oak Cottage received a 'Requires Improvement' rating because the provider lacked robust governance and oversight systems, failing to proactively identify safety issues such as medication recording errors and inconsistent staff adherence to risk assessment boundaries. Management was reactive rather than planned, with improvements mainly driven by external regulators rather than the provider's own quality monitoring, creating potential risk of harm to the young people using the service. |
