Fairview House Care Home is owned and managed by Barchester Health Care. Fairview House is registered to provide a care service to a maximum of 103 older people. Within the maximum of 103 places above, seven places may be provided for named people under the age of 65.

Fairview House Care Home is a purpose-built home located within the residential area of Danestone, Aberdeen. The service is close to local amenities and transport links. The accommodation consists of a variety of communal sitting rooms and dining areas. The home is divided into six smaller units. The unit, 'Memory Lane', is specifically for older people with mental health problems. The home has well maintained landscaped grounds.

This was a follow up inspection to assess what improvements had been made, and whether the provider had met the requirements made at our inspections on 15 November and 23 November 2021. We evaluated the service based on key areas that are vital to the support and wellbeing of people experiencing care during the pandemic.

To prepare for the inspection we reviewed information about this service. This included previous inspection findings, registration and complaints information, information submitted by the service and intelligence gathered since the last inspection. To inform our evaluation we:

- spoke with ten people using the service in the passing
- spoke with staff and management
- observed practice and daily life
- reviewed documents.

This inspection was carried out by three inspectors from the Care Inspectorate.
