It was rated good at a previous inspection in 2021
A specialist care home where staff "did not feel supported or appreciated” has been placed in special measures. Grafton Manor, in Grafton Regis, Northamptonshire, was looking after 11 patients with acquired brain injury when it was inspected but has capacity to care for 26 people.
Care plans did not always reflect residents’ needs or inform staff how to mitigate known risks, inspectors found. Two people who had insulin-dependent diabetes were found to have suffered "prolonged periods" of high blood sugar, which put them at increased risk of serious medical conditions. A resident told inspectors they "spent a lot of time sitting in their room as there was nothing to do” at the home. Physiotherapy sessions for another did not take place due to a lack of staff, a relative said.
