A care home has been told it must still do better after ‘poor communication’ was found to have put residents ‘at increased risk of harm’. Meavy View, in Rochdale, remains rated as ‘requires improvement’ by the Care Quality Commision (CQC) after an unannounced inspection.
The retirement home, on Milkstone Road provides care for up to 32 people, including those with dementia. A new manager was installed last summer and the home says her team provides ‘excellent care’ and is ‘working hard’ to achieve a ‘good’ rating across all five inspection categories.
Officials, who visited in April, concentrated on whether the service was ‘safe’ and ‘well led’ after concerns were raised over specific incidents involving residents at the home and management oversight of the service. The home remains rated as ‘good’ in the caring, responsive and effective categories.
