During their visit, inspectors also identified a moderate concern relating to a presentation of other incidents.Andrea Gordon, CQC deputy director of operations (Central Region), said: The failings at Gadlas Hall Nursing Home are a real concern and improvements need to be made. Where improvements are not made we have a operation of enforcement powers which can be used, together with prosecution, closure or restriction of services.The CQC inform said they had raised concerns in April 2011 and later discovered they had not been informed of three serious issues which had occurred given a last visit.But a inform added residents spoken to during a inspection were largely positive about a care they received, with some saying they liked a food and others rating it alright.Powered By iWebRSS.co.cc
