A troubled mental health hospital has been slammed by inspectors, whose 'worrying' visit uncovered 'disproportionate levels of restraint'; 'care plans not being followed'; and 'people spending most of their time alone in their rooms'.
The Breightmet Centre for Autism in Bolton has been deemed 'inadequate' for a second consecutive time by health watchdog the Care Quality Commission (CQC). A damming report has now been released.
"Vulnerable people were relying on all staff members to act as their advocates, to help them live their best lives and it is unacceptable the people they relied on were treating them this way," they wrote.
