During an inspection looking at part of the service
We saw there were not appropriate arrangements were in place for recording the administration of medicines. We found omissions in the records made when medicines were given to people and there was no indication whether the medicines were given or not. We found some medicines which had been prescribed to people were not available at the home.

During a routine inspection
People we spoke with told us that the food provided was good with meal portions sufficient. They said they had a choice of dishes at each meal. One person commented 'the food is lovely and there's plenty of it." We saw people were offered a choice of meal, and were given support to eat where needed. We found the service had enough staff to meet people's needs.
We found several errors with the recording of medication. This increased the likelihood of mistakes been made when administering medication to people.
