Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2023-02-08Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementSt Clare's Care Home requires improvement because of significant gaps in care planning, risk management and governance oversight. While staff are caring and well-trained, inconsistencies between speech and language therapy advice and care records created choking risks, pressure area care lacked documented plans, and falls management wasn't properly recorded. Quality assurance processes failed to identify these issues before inspection.
