Cosham Court Nursing Home

Cosham Court Nursing Home accommodates up to 47 people requiring nursing care, with 32 residents at the time of inspection. Inspectors identified significant concerns around infection control management, with some areas of the home poorly maintained and staff not consistently wearing personal protective equipment such as masks. Care records including care plans and risk assessments lacked clarity and consistency, with some conflicting information that could lead to inappropriate care.

On the first day of inspection, prescribed topical medicines were not consistently applied as required, though this was immediately addressed when raised with staff. All other medicines were managed safely and appropriate recruitment procedures were in place with adequate staffing levels to support residents' needs.
