CQC prosecutes care home manager for failing to provide safe care

A care home manager has been ordered to pay £2,333 after failing to provide safe care and treatment to a resident which exposed them to a significant risk of avoidable harm. This was as a result of a prosecution brought against them by the Care Quality Commission.
Rosalind Sanderson CQC’s deputy director of enforcement, said: “This is a distressing case, and our sympathies are with Laura’s family and those affected by her death. Suzanne Kirkbride failed in her duty to protect her by placing her in an unsafe service where staff weren’t trained to understand her condition and manage her complex needs.”
