|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-01-19 | Requires improvement | new | Unrated→Requires improvement | Allington Court Care Home received a Requires Improvement rating because risk assessments were not always detailed or communicated to staff, creating safety gaps including unwitnessed falls and medication administration issues. Additionally, governance systems failed to identify these quality failings through audits, and some people were restricted through inadequate access to call bells and bed sensors without proper justification. |
