2023-02-09Requires improvementnewUnratedRequires improvementAlandale Residential Home was rated 'Requires Improvement' because of significant gaps in safe care management and leadership oversight. Whilst people reported feeling safe and staff were available, the home failed to manage medicines safely, maintain proper infection control practices, and effectively monitor accidents and incidents. The registered manager and provider lacked formal audit systems to identify risks and ensure quality improvements across the service.
