Read CQC's assessment overview

The following is CQC's published account of its assessment, published 26 March 2024. References to “we” mean CQC. It describes findings at that time.

Oban House is a 'care home' that provides care and support to older people and those living with dementia. People in care homes receive accommodation and nursing or personal care as a single package under one contractual agreement. The service accommodates up to 30 people in one adapted building. On the day of our assessment 19 people were living at the home. We carried out an off site assessment. Activity started on 04 January 2024 and ended on 31 January 2024. We looked at 3 quality statements. At our last inspection the service was rated inadequate. Following this assessment, considerable improvements have been made. Risks to people and the environment are now effectively managed. Accidents and incidents are recorded and investigated meaning people are now even more safe. Staff are recruited more safely and the general governance of the home has improved. As a result, the service is now rated good overall.
