Calway House

Calway House is a residential care home in Somerset providing personal and nursing care to up to 92 older and younger adults, including people living with dementia, across five separate suites. The assessment followed a specific incident involving concerns about choking risk management, though this was not directly examined as it remains subject to a coroner's investigation.

Inspectors found risk assessments around pressure damage, choking and nutrition were clearly recorded and reviewed regularly, with staff knowledgeable about people's dietary needs. Mealtimes were observed to be relaxed and dignified, with kind, attentive staff. The home was rated Good overall, though inspectors identified that responsiveness required improvement.
