Mount Olivet Nursing Home

Mount Olivet provides personal and nursing care to up to 30 older people, with 22 residents at the time of inspection. While risk management procedures were in place, they were not consistently implemented. Monitoring charts for skin care and nutrition were not completed regularly, and topical medicines were not always applied as prescribed, with administration records failing to document application. Guidance for people using oxygen was insufficient. The home's quality assurance and governance systems had not identified these issues before the inspection.

Staff levels appeared adequate during the inspection, though residents and relatives reported sometimes waiting for care to be provided. The home's monitoring systems required strengthening to ensure safer, more effective service delivery.
