Louth care home in special measures faces closure as CQC takes action
A care home in Louth has been placed under special measures by the CQC and could even face closure should the service not improve, following an ‘inadequate’ inspection.
The findings were published in May, revealing that The Beeches had dropped from ‘Requires Improvement’ to ‘Inadequate’ – meaning it will now be placed under special measures until further notice. “The decline in these standards isn’t good enough and we’ve told the provider at The Beeches what they must do to improve, as nobody should ever have to live in a service which is unsafe.
Safety and leadership categories were labelled inadequate and effectiveness was deemed to require improvement at The Beeches.

The effect of virtual reality on cognitive, affective, and psychomotor outcomes in nursing staffs: systematic review and meta-analysis - BMC NursingBackground In the healthcare systems of the world, reinforcing the competence and professionalism of nurses has become a concern. Gaining clinical nursing competence in the healthcare system requires more effort, and additional training is required. Medical education and training have begun using digital technologies, such as virtual reality (VR). The purpose of this research was to examine the efficacy of VR in terms of cognitive, emotional, and psychomotor outcomes and learning satisfaction in nurses. Method The study searched eight databases (Cochrane library, EBSCOHost, Embase, OVID MEDLINE, ProQuest, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science) for articles that met these criteria: (i) nursing staff, (ii) any virtual reality technology intervention for education, all levels of immersion, [1] randomized control trial and quasi-experiment study, and (iv) published articles and unpublished theses. The standardized mean difference was measured. The random effect model was applied to measure the main outcome of the study with a significance level of p | .05. The I2 statistic assessment was applied to identify the level of heterogeneity of the study. Results A total of 6740 studies were identified, of which 12 studies with 1470 participants met the criteria for inclusion. The meta-analysis showed a significant improvement in the cognitive aspect (standardized mean difference [SMD] = 1.48; 95% CI = 0.33–2.63; p = .011, I2 = 94.88%), the affective aspect (SMD = 0.59; 95% CI = 0.34–0.86; p | .001, I2 = 34.33%), the psychomotor aspect (SMD = 0.901; 95% CI = 0.49–1.31; p | .001, I2 = 80.33%), and learning satisfaction (SMD = 0.47; 95% CI = 0.17–0.77; p = .002, I2 = 0%) aspects of the groups that received the VR intervention compared to the control groups. Subgroup analysis found that dependent variables (e.g., level of immersion) did not improve study outcomes. The quality of evidence was low which is affected by major methodological issues. Conclusions VR may favorable as alterna
