About Fairmont Residential Home

Fairmont Residential Home is a residential care home in Lancashire, providing personal care to older people and younger adults, including those with physical disabilities, sensory impairment, and dementia. Details of the most recent CQC inspection are set out below.

This residential care home provides personal care to older people, younger adults, and people with physical disabilities, sensory impairment, and dementia. At the time of inspection, 18 people were living in the three-storey building, which features ensuite bedrooms, lift access throughout, and accessible outdoor space. Staff numbers were sufficient to meet people's needs, and residents reported feeling safe.

Staff understood how to respond to allegations of abuse.

The home manages risks to residents, though inspectors identified that risk assessments needed more detailed information about how to support individual needs. The manager confirmed plans to implement post-falls observations for residents and to improve staff recruitment processes by ensuring employment histories are properly reviewed during hiring.
