A resident suffering an infection at a Merseyside care home was given the incorrect dose of medication for six days.
Following a damning CQC report, Millvina House in Anfield has been rated inadequate with the report outlining that the safety of residents is not up to standard. A lack of risk assessment meant that people were exposed to serious risk of harm, with risk assessments not always being accurate or reflecting people's needs.
As part of the safety report, it was also found that people living at the care home were also wrongly administered medication, with one person being given the incorrect dose of antibiotics for six days to treat an infection. The report also states that there was not always a "sufficient supply of medicine" available, with one person being prescribed medicine for diabetes not being given their medication at all during the inspection.
