Westmead

Westmead, in Wakefield, is a residential care home providing accommodation and personal care for up to 9 people with learning disabilities and autistic people, supported in their own flats and bungalows. The CQC rated the home Good overall, a significant improvement following previous breaches around safe care, safeguarding, staffing and governance. This assessment found the home was no longer in breach of these regulations and it has come out of Special Measures.

Inspectors found people were kept safe, risks were well managed and staff had the right skills and experience. People and relatives spoke positively about kind staff and the registered manager, though some relatives gave mixed feedback on safety, activities and complaints. Well-led was rated Requires Improvement, with further work needed to embed recent progress.
