The CQC is identifying the failure to follow conditions on DoLS authorisations on a regular basis in care homes. An inspection report published in August for Magnolia house care home (rated inadequate) stated: ‘We asked the management team about conditions on people's DoLS, and they were unable to clarify who the people were and what the conditions in place were. Therefore, we could not be assured these conditions were being met.’
