| 2015-10-15 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | The Island Residential Home received a 'Requires improvement' rating overall because whilst many areas showed good practice (caring, effective, responsive), there remained unresolved safety and leadership concerns. Key issues included incomplete recruitment checks with significant gaps in employment history for one staff member, missing records of which staff were trained to administer medicines, inadequate audit systems that failed to identify these gaps, and failure to display the CQC inspection rating. Although medicines management, safeguarding, staffing levels, and premises had improved, these governance and recruitment failings prevented a higher rating. |
