Mowbray Nursing Home provides personal and nursing care to 37 people aged 65 and over, with capacity for up to 39 residents. People felt safe living at the home, with staff understanding their responsibilities to identify and report potential harm. The management team consistently reviewed accidents and incidents to reduce risks, while staff had knowledge about preventing cross-infections.

Medicines were safely managed and administered by trained staff, and the home maintained close links with external health and social care professionals to support residents' welfare.

Residents were complimentary about how the environment was kept clean and free from unpleasant odours. Staffing levels were sufficient to meet people's needs without unreasonable delays, with the registered manager regularly reviewing staffing alongside individual care requirements to reduce risks to wellbeing.
