Our view of the service
Date of assessment: 18th August 2025. Codnor Park Care Home is registered to provide residential care to adults, with a specialism in caring for adults above 65 years of age, people with dementia and people with physical disabilities. We assessed the key questions of Safe and Well Led. The reason for the inspection was due to an aging rating, as the last inspection was carried out in 2019.
At the time of the inspection there were 36 people living at the care home. The provider had no previous breaches and was rated Good at the previous inspection.
The staff and leaders were skilled, knowledgeable and compassionate. We found the provider ensured that a person-centred approach was used across the service, with care plans that were person-centred, people were supported in the least restrictive way possible. The provider ensured staff were aware of their vision and values and we found the management team to be knowledgeable and experienced; they demonstrated good management oversight of the service.
People's experience of this service
We spoke with 9 people and 10 relatives. All of the people we spoke with said they felt safe at Codnor Park and staff were helpful. The majority of people said the home was clean, tidy and comfortable. The food was of a good standard with plenty of choice. The majority of people confirmed they were involved in their care planning and had seen their care plan. One person said, “The home is very clean, I can't complain, and they are quick if you need them.” We observed leaders interacting warmly with people, who knew the leader’s names and knew them well.
All of the relatives we spoke with said they felt that their family members were safe, and the home was well-staffed. Relatives said staff were approachable and shared information about their family members in a sensitive manner. Relatives talked about a wide range of activities organised by the home, including local schools coming to visit and sing to their family members, pet therapy visits, and being supported to go out on trips such as visits to a local Tea Dance organised by the provider’s parent company. One relative remarked on how they had regularly seen the staff dancing with people who used the service.
“Staff talk openly and honestly when I ask questions about the service.” Relatives told us they were regularly in contact with leaders and leaders were always available if they had a concern. The majority of relatives said the provider communicated well with their family.
