The Gables Rest Home

The Gables Rest Home provides residential care and personal support to up to 24 people, including older adults living with dementia, physical disabilities, sensory impairments, and mental health needs. At inspection, 21 people were using the service. Staff understood safeguarding procedures and had access to guidance to help people manage risks effectively. The home maintained adequate staffing levels, and the registered manager conducted thorough checks on new staff before employment to ensure suitability.

Medication management is handled by trained staff, though the manager planned to strengthen oversight of "when required" medicine administration and ongoing staff competency checks. The home has systems in place to prevent infection spread and worked with residents and visitors to ensure visits continued safely during challenging periods.
