to address risks and monitor progress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It added the provider had told inspectors: &#8220;I know I&#8217;ve taken my eye off the ball, I don&#8217;t have a service improvement plan, it&#8217;s all in my head.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The CQC gives care homes an overall rating and also scores them across five criteria.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Rosehill House was judged &#8220;inadequate&#8221; overall, with safety and leadership also deemed as such.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Effectiveness and responsiveness were rated as &#8220;requiring improvement&#8221;, while the the caring criteria was judged &#8220;good&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The report said: &#8220;The provider always treated people with kindness, empathy and compassion and respected their privacy and dignity.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Ms Hill-Eades said she was &#8220;delighted&#8221; the CQC had recognised the good care given to residents and the home was &#8220;committed and focused&#8221; to improve processes. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;We aim to have all improvements in place prior to the CQC reinspection and hope we will once again attain a good overall status,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">A previous inspection in 2018 had judged the home &#8220;good&#8221; overall.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">At the time of the inspection, 18 people lived there, though the care home can accommodate up to 23 people with a physical disability, a sensory impairment or living with dementia. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">The CQC said it would return to check on the care home&#8217;s progress.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;We have told leaders where we expect to see rapid improvements and will continue to monitor the home closely to keep people safe while this happens,&#8221; Ms Marsden said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Ms Hill-Eades said residents and their families had been informed of the CQC&#8217;s findings and they were grateful for the support received from them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">She added: &#8220;I am truly sorry for any anguish we have caused our residents, their families, our staff and partner organisations.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The report said the care home had &#8220;no formal strategy in place&#8221;
