Our view of the service
We assessed All Saints Hospital from 24 to 25 September 2025.
We assessed the service due to the age of the previous ratings.
All Saints Hospital was registered with CQC under its current provider in September 2018 to deliver the following regulated activities: Assessment or medical treatment for persons detained under the Mental Health Act 1983 and Treatment of disease, disorder or injury. The service had a controlled drugs accountable officer and a Registered Manager at the time of the assessment.
The service provided specialist care and treatment for 20 men with mental health needs who are also deaf or have impaired hearing and use British Sign Language (BSL) to communicate.
All Saints Hospital delivered two assessment service groups across two wards: forensic inpatient or secure wards and long stay or rehabilitation mental health wards for working age adults.
We visited the following wards as part of the assessment:
Braidwood ward - a specialist high-dependency rehabilitation ward for up to 14 male patients. The ward included four self-contained flats and four bedsits to help facilitate the recovery journey of patients.
Appleton ward - providing care and treatment in a low-secure environment for up to 6 male patients.
At this assessment we assessed both assessment service groups across all quality statements.
We identified a breach of regulation in relation to governance in the service.
We rated the service as Good. In the forensic inpatient or secure wards and long stay or rehabilitation mental health wards for working age adults, we found 1 breach of regulation across both in relation to the implementation of procedures and ensuring temporary staff received an induction into the ward they were working on.
We have asked the provider for an action plan in response to the concerns found at this assessment.
