Care team at Lower Meadow over the moon with improved CQC rating

The team at Lower Meadow care home have embraced the celebrations this week, following the positive news received from their recent CQC inspection.

The team were over the moon to receive their improved rating, which saw the service step up from ‘Requires Improvement’ to ‘Good’ following their most recent inspection from the Care Quality Commission.  

Rachel Walker, Home Manager at Lower Meadow, and her wider team have worked exceptionally hard to put in place strategies and processes to further improve the service and was delighted to see the hard work from everyone in the home reflected in their new official rating. 

Rachel Walker said: “We are so proud that our home has received its overall ‘GOOD’ rating from the CQC. At Lower Meadow care home, we focus on meeting the varying needs of every individual in a homely, comfortable and inclusive environment. We provide a variety of different activities, events and celebrations to get involved in, which encourage residents to build upon existing skills and hobbies and opportunities to try new things as well. The projects and activities we organise at our care home celebrate the close-knit community we have. Following the good news from our recent CQC inspection, I would like to say thank you to my brilliant team in working together to achieve a fantastic result,  we are all very much looking forward to the future and all the additional things we hope to accomplish.” 

Everyone at Lower Meadow is looking forward to celebrating their outcome with a party later in the week.
