A care home in Sleaford has been placed into special measures after being given an overall rating of ‘inadequate’ by the Care Quality Commission , but it says action has already been taken to rectify the issues.
The care home, which was previously rated as ‘good’, said it has made “immediate, significant changes to rectify the issues raised by CQC” and is looking forward to the “return inspection in the near future”. Hoist slings, used to lift people to aid moving to a new position, were damaged, which CQC said “risked causing injury”. Topical creams were not stored or recorded appropriately and the report says that staff did not always record why ‘as ‘needed’ medicines were given.
CQC said it was “particularly concerned” about the sluice room, a closed room specifically designed for the disposal of human waste products. “We observed that unclean urien bottles and bed pans were being stored in the sluice room and the shelf underneath was dirty,” it said. However, it was also noted that a new manager had been employed but had only been in position for a week, so “their work was not yet embedded at the service.” At the time of the inspection the registered manager had left employment a week before so there wasn’t one in place when CQC visited.
