A care home has been told it needs to improve after inspectors found breaches in regulations had put people 'at risk of harm'. Stable Steps Care Centre, in Cale Green, Stockport, has been providing personal and dementia care for up to 50 people since last year and says it ‘always strives to deliver the highest standards’ for its residents.
The Adswood Lane West service was registered in March 2021 and first inspected by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in June this year. A new report notes that residents were treated with dignity and respect, while officials also observed ‘caring interactions’ between carers and residents.
People ‘generally spoke positively’ about staff. But there were also a number of shortcomings that were said to put people ‘at risk of harm’, resulting in the centre being rated as ‘requires improvement’ overall and in four of the five assessment categories.
