| 2016-12-06 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Briardene Care Home received a 'Requires improvement' rating due to significant concerns around staffing levels that compromised safety and responsiveness, incomplete medication records for topical treatments, lack of supervision and appraisal support for staff, and poor governance systems that were not consistently used to monitor the service. Whilst the caring nature of staff was praised and most people felt safe, systemic management and compliance issues prevented a higher rating. |
