Mountview care home, located on Loughborough Road in Rothley, has been given an outstanding score of 100% in their recent Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) audit.
Performed by Leicester County Council, the IPC audit reviewed three areas of practice in the care home – environmental cleanliness, IPC practice and governance.
Mountview, operated by Ideal Carehomes, passed the audit with flying colours, scoring 100% in each category.
The audit report stated that the standards of cleanliness in the care home were ‘outstanding’, and complimented the ‘exceptional condition’ of the décor, carpets and furnishings.
The Registered Manager of the home, Stacie Weaver, demonstrated the ‘extensive auditing process’ she performs each month to maintain the high standards in the care home. Residents were found to have detailed, person-centred care plans in place.
In the resulting IPC audit letter, Senior Infection Prevention and Control Advisor, Helen Goalby, ended her findings by stating that the residents at Mountview ‘looked happy and comfortable within their surroundings’, while also being ‘supported to live an independent life’.
Thrilled with the results of the audit, Stacie said ‘I’m extremely proud of our team for making Mountview such a great place to live and work.
It’s our priority to ensure our residents are safe, happy and protected in our home, so we’re over the moon to receive such a fantastic score from the Community IPC Service.’
