Care home remains in special measures as residents still at risk

A Liverpool care home remains in special measures after a follow-up inspection found no improvement to the safety of people living there.

Millvina House on Hartnup Street was deemed to be unsafe and therefore providing an inadequate level of care when inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) between March and April last year. A follow-up visit by officials has found that little has changed at the facility which was initially built by Liverpool Council.

The follow-up report to the findings in 2022 at Millvina House, operated by Bloomcare, said at the time of the visit 42 people were in situ, with the ability to care for 60 individuals over three floors. Officials staged a second visit to monitor if warning notices previously handed out at the care home had been met.
