Safe
This means we looked for evidence that people were protected from abuse and avoidable harm.
At our last inspection we rated this key question Requires Improvement. At this inspection the rating has changed to Inadequate.
This meant people were not safe and were at risk of avoidable harm. Staff did not ensure wards were safe, clean, well equipped, well furnished, well maintained and fit for purpose. Staff did not always assess and manage risks to patients and themselves well. Staff did not understand how to protect patients from abuse and the service did not always work well with other agencies to do so.
The service was in breach of regulation for:
Regulation 12 Safe care and treatment
Regulation 15 Premises and equipment
