‘Outstanding’ Foxgrove Residential Home helps to keep families in contact

Congratulations go to the team at Foxgrove Residential Home ome in Felixstowe, Suffolk, following a successful interim inspection by the Care Quality Commission (CQC).

The inspection, which took place this month as part of CQC’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic praised good practice, including correct use of PPE, high standards of cleanliness and infection control and clear guidance for all  visitors to the home.

The team at Foxgrove – which inspectors noted was clean and well-ventilated –  were praised for supporting residents to keep in contact with their relatives, reducing the risk of isolation as well as providing regular activities.
