Morton Close

Morton Close is a residential care home providing personal care and accommodation for up to 40 people, though 16 people were using the service at inspection. The home is housed in one adapted building with bedrooms on the ground and second floors, and main communal areas on the third floor.

The provider had invested significantly in improvements since the last inspection, reducing risks and enhancing care quality. However, medicines were not always managed safely, which placed people at increased risk of harm. Further improvements were needed in this area and others to ensure the safety and wellbeing of residents.
