Stretton Hall Nursing Home, Chrurch Stretton - Enter & View visit report
This visit was part of a programme of visits to care homes that are registered by the CQC as providing Dementia care to learn more about the care they provide and identify areas of good practice.
Summary
The purpose of the visit was:
- To make observations of the home environment and interactions between staff, residents and their families.
- To understand the home’s approach to providing ‘person centred’ care (including Dementia care) and the support available for staff.
- To hear about how staff support residents to maintain their independence, make choices and maintain relationships with family / carers.
Key Findings
We suggest the following should be considered:
- Installing clocks in communal areas that display the day, date and time, which might be useful for residents especially those with Dementia.
- Improving communication and information for relatives and visitors, such as names of key workers.
- Ensuring that all corridors are clear and all areas odour-free.
