Gainsborough Care Home

Gainsborough Care Home provides accommodation and personal care for up to 48 people, with 21 people living there at the time of assessment. The CQC rated the service Good overall. Inspectors found people were cared for safely, with lessons learned from past incidents and good links to healthcare professionals, though some aspects of medicines administration needed improvement.

Staff were mostly kind and attentive, and call bells were answered promptly. Inspectors did find some poor practice around storage of clothing and personal items, which the registered manager addressed immediately. Most people and relatives spoke positively about care, though one relative felt communication and visit frequency could improve.
