Ash Villa is a ‘care home’ providing personal care and support to people with a learning disability, sensory impairment, and dementia. At the time of the inspection, the service was supporting 8 people with their personal care needs. Ash Villa was last rated Good (published 5 February 2020). The report was published following CQC’s old inspection approach using key lines of enquiry (KLOEs), prompts and ratings characteristics. This assessment has been completed following the Care Quality Commission (CQC) new approach to assessment; Single Assessment Framework (SAF). We carried out our on-site assessment on 14 May 2024. This was an unannounced assessment, which means the provider was not told an assessment was going to be starting beforehand. We assessed a total of 4 quality statements from the safe, and well-led key questions and found areas of good practice. The scores for these areas have been combined with scores based on the key question ratings from the last inspection.
