Review from Anne Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 16 October 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I often find the resident in another person's clothes and I see other people in the resident's clothes. Clothes and objects go missing. I have asked for them to be found, some have not been returned and it takes weeks for the items to be returned. I feel the resident is not washed, showered regularly and has dirty hair. I have given up with asking to shave, I do it each visit.
There are visits where I feel the care staff are very overstretched, mostly at the weekends. Maybe the management should help more and the manager should work weekends.

Overall Experience
Mom has settled in very well. I felt all her needs are being met and the staff are very kind and patient with all residents. We are informed when anything is different with mom we are very lucky to have mom in this home.

Inspection ratings
We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
