00:00 Here's today's Derbyshire Times video bulletin.

00:02 A Derbyshire care home has been ordered to improve by inspectors from the industry regulator

00:07 after safety failings were discovered for the second time this year.

00:10 An unannounced inspection team visited Lillibank Hamlet care home on Chesterfield and Road in

00:16 Matlock to assess progress on a number of safety issues first identified in January.

00:20 Their original report concluded with an overall rating of 'requires improvement for the facility'

00:27 based on the same rating of its safety and leadership criteria.

00:30 But in an update published recently it was downgraded to 'inadequate on safety'

00:35 however the overall rating was unchanged.

00:37 The new report states 'this means people were not safe and were at risk of avoidable harm'.

00:43 At our last inspection the provider had failed to ensure care and treatment was being provided in a

00:48 safe way for people. Mick Ogle who is compliance manager at the home's parent company Progressive

00:54 Care said 'we've considered the report in detail and have fed back to them on a number of areas

00:58 where we feel it does not reflect the reality of our service providing evidence. There is no

01:03 suggestion that any harm has come to our residents and we are pleased that all the feedback from

01:07 residents and relatives in the report is positive. However our primary focus is on addressing any

01:13 areas where improvements can be made so that we can continue to provide excellent care that the

01:17 CQC themselves describe as kind and compassionate'.

01:22 North Derbyshire residents enjoyed the sight of some iconic aircraft in our skies over the weekend.

01:27 Residents got to see both the world-famous Red Arrows display team

01:31 and the iconic Lancaster bomber as they flew over Chesterfield and North Derbyshire.
