Silver Birch Care Home

Silver Birch is a residential care home providing personal care for up to 23 people, with 13 residents at the time of inspection. Inspectors identified concerns with the management of sharps, including needles and syringes, and found that some people did not receive their prescribed medication with no recorded reason. Additionally, some residents receiving medicines on a when-required basis lacked up-to-date medical reviews. The home needs to improve its risk assessments to ensure they accurately reflect changes to residents' health conditions and remain current.
