Inspection history

PublishedOverallChangeTransitionAI summary
2016-05-13InadequatenewUnratedInadequateValentine Lodge received an Inadequate rating because the provider failed to implement critical safety improvements following previous inspections, despite being issued warning notices. Medicines were not being administered safely, with dangerous discrepancies in anticoagulant dosing and incomplete medication records, and there was no effective quality assurance system in place to monitor or identify these serious issues. The Local Authority terminated their contract and moved residents due to ongoing safety concerns that the provider had repeatedly failed to address.
