Care home where medicines 'not always safely managed' told to improve

A care home where medicines 'were not always safely managed' has been told by inspectors it 'requires improvement'. Care Quality Commission inspectors visited Amberley Care Home in Sale in September when it was caring for 51 people.

The team found improvements had been made in the quality of the home's 'person-centred care' received by people and staffing deployment. But it went on: "Further improvements were still required in relation to the safe management of medication, infection control, consent and good governance.

"The provider continued to be in breach of regulations. We found medicines were not always managed safely across the service."
