The daughter of a woman living at a failing South Liverpool care home has hit out at her treatment.
The Care Quality Commission (CQC) last week confirmed it had placed Cressington Court Care Home on Beechwood Road in special measures after it was found that residents were at risk of malnutrition and dehydration while medications were not handled correctly. A litany of concerns were raised around medicine, staffing and clinical care.
These included one person not being bathed for four weeks as staff said “they didn’t have time” and another losing more than six stone in a six-month period. An inspection in March and April deemed the home’s overall rating as inadequate, with the safety, effectiveness, care and leadership of the service also called inadequate having already required improvement.
