Orchid Woodlands Healthcare Ltd

Orchid Woodlands is a residential care home in Atherton, Greater Manchester, supporting up to 38 older people and adults with dementia, mental health needs, physical disability or sensory impairment. The CQC rated it Good overall, finding earlier breaches around consent, complaints and training had been resolved, with people and relatives describing kind, respectful staff and a well-run home.

However, inspectors found continued issues with medicines management, including thickening powder and as required medicines, meaning the provider remained in breach of regulations in this area. Some monitoring gaps and inconsistent audits were also identified, though the registered manager took action during the assessment to address these shortfalls.
