A further targeted inspection was carried out in March over six days to ‘check on a concern we had about staffing and recruitment’. “Staff told us there were a sufficient number of staff to meet people’s needs safely but more time was needed to complete paperwork,” the report added. The service provides support to older people, some of whom are living with dementia, in one adapted building. At the time of the inspection there were 36 people using the service.
