The home is now in special measures after inspectors found a long list of issues that led them to conclude that residents 'were not safe'.
An inspector from the Care Quality Commission carried out an unannounced eight-day inspection of Caradoc House Residential Care Home, in Little Stretton, in the summer in response to concerns over the quality of care."The provider failed to ensure substances hazardous to health were safely stored, firefighting equipment was readily available or that window restrictors were in place on all windows.
Caradoc House provides support with accommodation and personal care for up to 11 people. At the time of the inspection 10 people were receiving accommodation and personal care, some of whom were living with dementia.It continued:"Confidential information was not secured and was accessible to those without authority. People's personal property was not safely or appropriately stored."
Mr Andal was criticised for not being a"positive example of interaction and engagement with people and did not value people's personal space". Failings with the way medicines were stored and given were also found. There were failings with having enough suitably qualified staff deployed at all times.
