A failing Wirral nursing home did not test residents for Covid-19 often enough and placed one person at increased risk of choking or contracting a form of pneumonia.
Sandrock Nursing Home, at 1-3 Sandrock Road in New Brighton, was given the worst possible rating, inadequate, following a report by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).
At the time of the inspection, carried out over four dates in December and January, 22 people lived in the home, some of whom lived with dementia.
