RMBI home, Devonshire Court in Oadby, has received an overall rating of 'outstanding' following a recent inspection by he Care Quality Commission (CQC).
The home, which provides residential care and dementia support for up to 69 residents, was found to be offering an 'outstanding' caring, responsive and well-led service to its residents and was rated 'good' in two further categories. CQC also praised the excellent end of life care provided.
According to the report, published in September 2018, people at the home enjoy life with their social and physical needs extremely well met by a dedicated staff team that is kind, caring and compassionate.

This includes deciding which activities and hobbies they wish to take part in. Devonshire Court offers a vast range of activities for people's individual needs and abilities, from gardening to arts and crafts, to day trips and gentle physical exercise.
The inspection found the registered manager and her team to be providing excellent leadership to staff, ensuring good staffing levels to meet the needs of residents and pursuing a long term vision for the home with excellent standards.

Our residents' health and wellbeing is always at the forefront of our work at RMBI Care Co and it is fantastic to see this reflected in our regulator's report."
