Date of assessment: 20 November 2025 to 5 December 2025.
Winsford Grange is a care home providing personal and nursing care for up to 60 people. At the time of our assessment there were currently 28 people residing there.
This focused assessment was carried out to follow up on previously identified concerns, and therefore, not all quality statements were reviewed. We assessed 7 quality statements: 5 under the ‘Safe’ key question, 1 under ‘Effective,’ and 1 under ‘Well-led.’
The provider remains in breach of the legal regulations relating to consent, safe care and treatment, safeguarding, good governance and staffing under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014.
Enforcement action is already in place, so no further action will be taken at this time.
We found systems for recording and investigating accidents and incidents were not robust, and there were limited investigations into unexplained injuries, such as skin tears and bruising.
People were not always repositioned according to their assessed needs, increasing the risk of pressure injuries.
Some care plans and risk assessments contained contradictory information, and essential equipment, such as sensor mats for fall prevention, were not always working.
Medicines were not consistently managed or administered safely.
However, staff spoke positively about the support they received from the registered manager and described them as approachable.
