Our view of the service
We carried out this assessment from 03 July 2024 to 15 July 2024 and visited the service on 03 and 04 July 2024. This assessment was carried out following concerns shared with us by the local authority. Widecombe Nursing Home is a residential care home. The service provides support to people living with dementia, people with nursing needs and people with a physical disability. We looked at 15 quality statements across 4 key questions. We found 3 breaches of legal regulations in relation to safe care and treatment, person centred care and governance arrangements. In instances where CQC have decided to take civil or criminal enforcement action against a provider, we will publish this information on our website after any representations and/or appeals have been concluded.
People's experience of this service
We spoke with 9 people and 11 relatives of people who used the service. People told us there was not much for them to do, staff did not spend much time with them but that they felt safe. We observed people's experience of the service and found staff were task based and people were not offered choice and control over their lives.
