Interesting article in
http://nhsmanagers.net on shortcomings of current inspections from CQC.
The CQC is by no means perfect but on reading the CQC report it really is quite damning on this particular home. I would certainly want to know these failings if I was going to place a loved one there. Just one example....
"a diabetic care plan had not been maintained and the last record of the person’s blood
sugar levels was over seven months previously."
I am surprised that Mr Lilley could find no one that remembered when the inspection took place (Surely the activities coordinator who could not do that job as she was having to do the laundry would have had some recollection) as although the front page does not show the date inside it clearly states "This was an unannounced inspection, which took place on
4 June 2015." And was not the first to show similar concerns.
His attention to detail is rather troubling and I am always very suspicious of such "blogs" especially when written by a professional writer/speaker on NHS matters.
