This 90-bed care home supports older people and those living with dementia across six purpose-built wings. Each wing features single en-suite bedrooms with adapted bathrooms and communal lounge and dining areas, alongside quiet spaces and shared facilities including a hairdressing salon and cinema room. At inspection, 83 people were using the service.

People reported feeling safe, with effective systems in place to protect them from abuse. Staff felt confident raising concerns with senior management. Health and safety risks were actively managed to minimise injury or harm, and the premises were well-maintained and regularly checked.

The home maintained adequate staffing levels to meet residents' needs, with robust recruitment procedures in place.
