Moorland Garden Nursing Home

Moorland Garden Nursing Home provides personal and nursing care to a maximum of 21 people. The service provides support to people who have nursing or residential care needs. At the time of our inspection there were 21 people using the service. We carried out our on-site assessment on 27 March, off site assessment activity started on 25 March and ended on 9 May. The inspection was prompted in part by information shared with CQC by The Local Authority following which a person using the service died. This incident is subject to further investigation by CQC as to whether any regulatory action should be taken. As a result, this inspection did not examine the circumstances of the incident. However, the information shared with CQC about the incident indicated potential concerns about the management of risk of medicines administration and pressure care. This inspection examined those risks. This service was registered by CQC on 19 December 2023. New services are assessed to check they are likely to be safe, effective, caring, responsive, and well-led. We looked at 5 quality statements, Safeguarding, Involving people to manage risks, Safe and effective staffing, Medicines optimisation and Governance, management and sustainability.
