THE daughter of a resident at a care home rated inadequate for the second time in a row says she is “constantly worrying” about her parent.
The Ashton Care Home, in Hinckley, has again been given the lowest rating by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) due to safety and staffing concerns. It remains in special measures.
The daughter, who did not want to be named, got in touch after reading the report about the John Street home.
She said: “When you have had to make the heartbreaking decision that a parent is no longer able to cope, and needs to go into a care home, you expect they will be cared for and looked after – especially when you are paying over £1,000 per week.
“We are feeling incredibly let down by The Ashton, which has not made improvements despite two previous inadequate ratings following CQC inspections.
“The difficult situation of having a loved one in a care home during the Covid pandemic has been made much worse by what is going on at The Ashton.”
A total of 51 people were living at the Hinckley home when inspectors visited in December. Their report was published this month.
Inspectors said: “Due to our urgent concerns about the risk of harm relating to people whose physical and nonphysical behaviours may challenge, we asked the provider for immediate assurances about what they would do to make sure people were safe.
“The provider sent us an action plan telling us how they would address the issues quickly.
“We are continuing to monitor the progress of this plan.” Inspectors said the service was often short-staffed, medicines were not always managed safely – there had been occasions when time-critical medication had been given late and wrong doses had been administered – and systems for staff and management to report, review and investigate safety incidents, and act to prevent them reoccurring, were “not always effective”.
Inspectors said the home had made the required improvements with regard to PPE, but: “There were widespread and significant shortfalls in service leadership.”
