About Swansea Terrace

Swansea Terrace is a nursing care home in Lancashire, offering residential support to older people in a setting that aims to feel comfortable and familiar. Families looking into care options in the area will find a home with communal spaces designed to encourage a sense of community and connection. The team at Swansea Terrace understands how important it is for residents to feel at ease, and for families to feel confident in their loved one's new home.

Swansea Terrace accommodates up to 44 people in single bedrooms with partial ensuite facilities across ground and first floors, with communal areas and outdoor seating. At inspection, 36 people were resident in the home.

However, significant concerns were identified regarding safety. Assessed risks were not consistently managed, and alerts indicating missed repositioning support or insufficient fluid intake were not responded to. Medicine administration was unsafe, with stocks not properly monitored, leaving some people without adequate supplies.

Diabetes care was inconsistent, and staff lacked sufficient information to recognise blood sugar-related risks. Manager oversight of medicine records had not been safely maintained. People had not been adequately supported to drink enough throughout the day.
