| 2019-11-22 | Inadequate | new | Unrated→Inadequate | Scarletts received an Inadequate rating across all five key questions because the provider failed to make sustained improvements despite multiple previous inspections, enforcement actions, and conditions placed on their registration. Critical safety failures persisted, including inadequate risk assessments, unsafe medication management, poor moving and handling practices, and fire safety issues that placed vulnerable residents at serious risk. The service also suffered from weak leadership and governance, with ineffective quality assurance systems that failed to identify or address significant shortfalls in care. |
