Ridgewood House

Rigewood House accommodates up to 21 people in Chesterfield, with bedrooms spread across two floors, communal living areas, and an outside garden. The registered manager leads by example and ensures everyone has a voice in running the home. People, relatives, and staff consistently praised the leadership, though governance systems, while in place, are not always documented.

The manager was recommended to review these systems to better demonstrate the ongoing work maintaining safe care.

Residents are safe and protected from harm, receiving medicines as prescribed. Staffing levels are adequate to meet people's needs and preferences promptly, with safe recruitment practices in place.
