Summary of report content

Healthwatch East Riding of Yorkshire conducted an Enter and View visit, as part of a planned set of visits looking at the quality of provision of residential care in East Yorkshire.

Healthwatch East Riding of Yorkshire visited The Old Vicarage Care, on 20/07/2015.

The summary of findings highlighted this home seems a good example of delivering care in a residential setting. The Staff are highly qualified and seem to be developing on a constant basis. Dignity and respect are at the forefront of service delivery and the residents are put first. There is enough activity for the residents to participate in and they are encouraged (not forced) to get out of their rooms. They spoke with two residents who said how well they were being treated. The environment in the home was pleasant and appeared safe for residents. Policies and procedures all were held in the highest regard. Safeguarding was also of huge importance. The home’s ‘no cash’ policy for the residents has proved most advantageous.
