During the last comprehensive inspection in August 2015 we found the service was meeting our regulations. The provider had a complaints process and we saw complaints were investigated and responded to in line with the provider’s procedure. Our mission is to promote the home as a centre of excellence, where our residents receive high-quality care and are the focus of everything we do. We are pleased to report that we have no further incidents of COVID at St Vincent’s Nursing Home. All staff and residents who had tested positive have now tested negative and the outbreak status finished on 11th November 2022.

A complaints procedure was in place and people said were confident to raise any concerns and that they would be addressed. People said the manager and deputy manager were approachable and dealt with any issues raised. People were happy with the care they received and they felt staff treated them in a kind, caring way and respected their privacy and dignity. People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and the policies and systems in the service supported this practice. All staff shall use and develop their knowledge and skills to improve our residents’ well being and to provide professional support to everyone.

EAC sees itself, and this website, as one source of ‘housing options’ information and advice for older people and their families. But there are many other organisations providing valuable services, both locally and nationally.

We have recently been able to open EAC Advice, a new 'housing options' advice service for older people.
Staff recruitment procedures were in place and these were followed to ensure only suitable staff were employed at the service.

Risk assessments for equipment and safe working practices were in place to mitigate risks to people visiting and working at the service and were updated annually. Input from people and, where appropriate, their representatives was not evidenced in care plan reviews.

If you have a home to sell, you may be able to use the proceeds to pay the deposit on a new property and take out a ‘lifetime mortgage’ to cover the rest of the cost.
