Magna House in Sleaford was examined after concerns were raised by police, inspectors say.
Health Correspondent, BBC Look North
The Care Quality Commission visited Magna House in Sleaford after concerns were raised by police, members of the public and service users.Owner Enbridge Healthcare Limited said improvements had been made and the report was "already out of date". Inspectors from the CQC visited the hospital in April and were told some people had experienced physical assaults by staff. Their report found there had been incidents involving police, but the CQC was not informed.Greg Rielly, CQC deputy director of operations in the Midlands, said: "We found the standards of care were well below what people have a right to expect. The service wasn't safe and people were at risk of avoidable harm.
A spokesman for Magna House said: "By omitting the full findings of its own subsequent inspection in June, it [the CQC] has presented an impression of the service that is no longer accurate."A review of our clinical model was already under way prior to the April inspection and some extremely complex patients have been transitioned to more suitable facilities, for their own safety and that of our staff.
