During a routine inspection
The atmosphere at Limecroft was relaxed and friendly; we observed service users and staff engaged in conversations and activities.
The home had garden areas and parking. Accommodation was provided on two floors. There was a passenger lift. All rooms were single and some were en-suite. There were several lounge areas and activities areas. There was a cinema room and memorabilia was displayed around the home although this was not observed to reflect ethnic diversity and the provider may wish to consider addressing this. A hairdresser visited fortnightly. Community links were maintained via activities provision from local groups.
Leaflets on safeguarding, feedback and complaints were displayed in the foyer.
