Advinia care home meets improvement notice requirements

An Advinia care home in Paisley, Scotland has met the terms of an improvement notice issued by the Care Inspectorate.

The improvement notice was issued to Elderslie Care Home in May following an inspection by the regulator which resulted in staff being brought in from Renfrewshire Health and Social Care Partnership to help with the service’s turnaround.

A spokesperson for the Care Inspectorate said: “We are in the process of carrying out a follow-up inspection of this service and have found evidence of improvement.

“We will report on this fully in due course but can confirm that the improvement notice issued on March 21, 2023 has been complied with.

“The Care Inspectorate and Renfrewshire Health and Social Care Partnership will continue to work with the service to ensure the improvements are sustained.”

An Advinia spokesperson said: “The safety and wellbeing of our residents is our highest priority, and so we are pleased that the Care Inspectorate has seen significant improvements at the home during their recent monitoring visits.

“While this process is still to be concluded we are confident that our robust action plan will continue to deliver on the changes that were required of the home.

“We would like to thank our residents, and their families, for their patience and trust during this process, which can be unsettling for some individuals. We recognise this and we look forward to a positive future as their care provider of choice.

“Meanwhile, Advinia has continually asserted to the commissioners, and the Care Inspectorate, that its mission is financially viable, safe quality care. Without the right fees for care, and for care needs, financial viability, safety and quality are all affected. We are working with the commissioners to ensure that all resident needs are assessed, and the right fees paid for the home to maintain its mission.”
