The CQC has today published inspection reports for both The Limes Residential Home in Bembridge and Down House Residential Care Home.
The inspector has found the overall provision of both homes to be ‘Inadequate’.
Deborah Ivanova, CQC’s Interim Deputy Chief Inspector for Adult Social Care, said:
“People are entitled to services which provide safe, effective, compassionate and high quality care. We assess services against five key questions – Is the service caring? Is the service effective? Is the service safe? Is the service well led? Is the service responsive? – and rate each question and the service overall. Where we find a service meets our characteristics of good or outstanding then we will rate accordingly.
“If we find that a service requires improvement, we will expect them to provide us with a full plan setting out how they will address the issue. We will share our findings with local commissioners, and we will return in due course to check that they have made the required improvements.
“Whenever we find a service to be Inadequate, we will consider taking further action on behalf of the people who use the service. Providers of those services should take the publication of the inadequate rating as a signal that immediate action is required to improve the service.”
