Date of assessment 4th July 2024 to 12th July 2024. Little Oldway is a 'care home' that provides care and support for a maximum of 30 older people, some of whom may be living with a dementia and/or physical frailty. At the time of the inspection 28 people were living at the service. We looked at 7 quality statements; Safeguarding, Involving people to manage risks, Safe and effective staffing, Safe environments, Consent to care and treatment, Partnerships and communities, and Governance, management, and sustainability. We found 4 breaches of the legal regulations in relation to safeguarding, notifications of other incidents, notice of change and governance. We have made recommendations in relation to the environment and the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA). We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment.
