Ashfield Nursing Home

Ashfield Nursing Home provides personal and nursing care for up to 40 people, with 39 residents at the time of inspection. While staff demonstrated sufficient knowledge of people's needs and administered medicines safely, the home was not consistently maintained to a high standard. The provider addressed issues and concerns, though improvements could have been implemented more quickly. Risk assessments relating to personal and nursing care were detailed and in place, and staffing levels were adequate with skilled personnel present. Safety systems and professional relationships with external services were established, though governance processes required strengthening to better support ongoing service improvements.
