Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2019-07-16Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementLydfords Care Home received a 'Requires Improvement' rating due to inconsistent staffing deployment, failure to properly monitor call bell response times despite having the system in place, gaps in staff training particularly around dementia and nutrition, insufficient activities for people who stay in their rooms, and variable staff attitudes towards people. Whilst medicines management, safeguarding, and risk assessments were sound, and the home delivered good care outcomes, concerns about dignity, respect and leadership governance prevented a higher rating.
