A care home described as 'clinical' and 'institutionalised' has been told to improve for the THIRD time by a watchdog. Hilltop Court Nursing Home, in Stockport, provides nursing and specialist care for up to 47 older people living with dementia.
It is run by Harbour Healthcare, which says the facility offers a ‘warm, welcoming and friendly environment’ for residents, as well as visiting friends and family. But it has now been rated as ‘requires improvement’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) for the third consecutive time in three years, having last been graded as good in 2019.
Inspectors visited the Dodge Hill home in March, and found it was ‘clean’, staff knew how to safeguard people from harm and health and safety checks had been completed. However, despite a recommendation at the last inspection, they ‘identified multiple and repeated breaches' of care regulations.
