Bloomfield Care Home
We were asked by the local authority to carry out enter and view visits to observe and gather feedback from staff and residents at a number of care homes in B&NES.
Recommendation
Concerned about clinical procedure being done in lounge and no privacy being given – recommend done in room/offered screen.
Registered nursing staff - to be working to ensure evidence that quality of care is continuously monitored and improved
Stabilise staff and staffing numbers before admitting further residents and to enable continuity of care
We have raised staffing concerns with the safeguarding team
Individual residents needs to be attentively met and achieved – again may require more staff
Risk of pressure sores – are patients being moved enough in their beds?
Should single sex toilets be provided?
