About Greenleigh

Greenleigh is a residential care home in Dudley, offering families in the area a local option for their loved ones at a time when finding the right place really matters. The team there understands how important it is for residents to feel at home, and the home's community setting means that familiar surroundings and connections are never too far away. If you are exploring care options in Dudley, Greenleigh may be worth getting to know a little better.

Greenleigh is a residential care home providing personal care and accommodation for up to 35 people, some of whom live with dementia. At the time of inspection, the service was supporting 31 people.

Inspectors identified improvements needed in systems for managing risks and medicines. Medicines were not always stored safely, and risk management processes required strengthening to reduce potential harm to residents. Equipment used in shared rooms did not consistently support privacy and dignity for people.

Infection prevention measures were in place but required further development to ensure comprehensive protection.
