Ashfield Nursing Home

Ashfield Nursing Home provides nursing and personal care for older adults, including people living with advanced dementia and mental health conditions. It currently supports 39 people. The CQC rated the home Requires Improvement overall, finding breaches relating to the environment and governance systems, with equipment and maintenance issues that placed people at increased risk of harm.

Infection control also needed further work.

Inspectors found people were cared for by kind, attentive staff who knew them well and managed medicines safely. However, governance systems did not always identify problems quickly enough, and processes to protect people from financial abuse were not consistently followed. The provider responded promptly with an action plan and took steps to address the concerns raised.
