A nursing home, where disposable adult nappies were washed and reused, has received a damning report.

Care inspectors found the Bay Nursing Home in Tywyn to be not compliant with regulations put in place to ensure that the care, safety and dignity of the county’s most vulnerable residents were upheld.

Chief among the criticisms found by Care Inspectorate Wales this October was a lack of staff, poor leadership, and a “lack of dignity and respect” for the home’s residents.

Inspectors noted that a bag of “generic disposable underwear” was found in a cupboard with no names on them.

There were also some one-use disposable underwear which had been washed and reused on residents.

Another resident, who was uncomfortable in the heat during the summer heatwave, was left exposed with the bedroom door open after removing their clothes.

The home, which is owned by JSB Healthcare limited, and is the responsibility of Rajdeep Tutt, previously faced a severe report in October 2017, before making improvements in February 2018.
