## Resource

A Manchester care home hit with a damning “inadequate” rating after inspectors uncovered life-threatening medication errors, staff safety risks, and neglect of vulnerable clients — including missed care visits and a worker with untreated respiratory illness whose contacts couldn’t be traced. The director apologized and pledged sweeping reforms, while nearby services in Bolton and Bury earned glowing “good” ratings for compassionate, well-managed care. The CQC remains vigilant, with other providers still working to fix critical gaps in medication handling and staff support.
