During an inspection looking at part of the service

Maids Moreton Hall is a nursing and residential care home, providing accommodation, nursing and personal care for up to 60 people aged 65 and over. This includes people who are living with dementia, physical disabilities and/or sensory impairments. The home is one adapted building across two floors. At the time of our visit, the service was transitioning from one provider to another.

We found the following examples of good practice.

We observed the home was clean and hygienic. Staff completed enhanced cleaning of frequently touched surfaces, which helped to promote good infection control. We observed a member of the cleaning staff carrying out a deep clean of a person’s bedroom.

The home had a suitable system in place to support relatives and friends to visit people living in the home during the COVID-19 pandemic. This included checking people’s lateral flow test results and the wearing of personal protective equipment. A pod was set up in the grounds of the home to enable people to visit safely.

The provider had put measures in place to minimise the impact of workforce challenges related to the Covid-19 pandemic. The registered manager reported that workforce pressures did not impact on the quality of care people received.

There was a good supply of personal protective equipment (PPE) available. We observed staff wearing appropriate PPE in the correct way. Staff had received training and their competency had been assessed in the safe use of PPE.

Tests for COVID-19 were being carried out in line with government guidance, for both staff and people living in the home.
