Managers of a Highland Perthshire care home have been told to address “serious concerns” raised by inspectors about a lack of activities for residents who told them they were “bored” during a recent assessment.
The Care Inspectorate has recommended bosses at Balhousie Pitlochry Care Home review the way in which activities are organised and arrange for “sufficient staff” to be on hand to help people engage in them after residents complained there was “not a lot to do”.
The body has also advised managers to draw up more detailed personal care plans for residents after inspectors said they saw several examples of documents during their time at the Burnside Road home that were not up to the standard expected.
