That's all from us. Now it's time for the news where | :00:00. | :00:12. | |
The Care Quality Commission has served a number of formal notices, | :00:13. | :00:15. | |
after concerns were raised about the treatment of elderly | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
and vulnerable patients, at a care home in Peterborotgh. | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
Werrington Lodge has been told it must improve | :00:21. | :00:21. | |
after inspectors originally found eight serious breaches. | :00:22. | :00:23. | |
Residents were not protected from the risk of infection `nd some | :00:24. | :00:38. | |
Cambridgeshire police is also investigating after a series | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
The care home under increashng scrutiny. Today, the Care Qtality | :00:42. | :00:55. | |
Commission gave its verdict on Werrington Lodge. Some of the | :00:56. | :01:01. | |
report's shocking findings hnclude patients left in wet and sohled | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
beds. Calls from patients for help ignored. And patients were `lso at | :01:08. | :01:12. | |
risk of falls and injury. The commission visited the home back in | :01:13. | :01:17. | |
May. So concerned with what it found, it contacted the council | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
safeguarding team. Warning notices were served. After initial concerns, | :01:23. | :01:30. | |
city councillors made their own unannounced visit. We wanted to make | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
it clear to the people who `re now looking to rectify the situ`tion | :01:35. | :01:38. | |
that as a local ward councillor we have a role to fulfil. And we are | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
there to support them, if they themselves require it. But the mood | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
was positive. And we cannot ignore the fact that the CQC report | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
highlights significant concdrns The management of the care home said | :01:56. | :02:01. | |
it was deeply concerned that standards had fallen well bdlow what | :02:02. | :02:05. | |
they expect from residents. The company running the home has | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
declared to be interviewed. But they have issued a statement sayhng that | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
as soon as they were mere aware of the findings, they take immddiate | :02:14. | :02:18. | |
action. Investment has been made. They movie has dashed they know they | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
have made progress and this has been recognised by external parthes. We | :02:26. | :02:31. | |
were very concerned. We havd taken robust enforcement action using our | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
powers to warm the provider of the action they need to take to make | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
sure that residents are getting the quality of care and support that | :02:41. | :02:45. | |
they have every right to expect The Care Quality Commission says while | :02:46. | :02:52. | |
some progress has been made, much work still needs to be done. The | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
plan more unannounced inspections. Flash flooding left commuters | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
stranded at rush hour in Cambridgeshire this evenhng, | :02:58. | :02:59. | |
some of them for several hotrs. March, Wisbech, | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
Dry Drayton and Bar hill ard worst affected, with police warning | :03:02. | :03:03. | |
drivers not to venture out tonight. Fourteen hundred homes were without | :03:04. | :03:06. | |
power earlier ` Our reporter has been out tonight | :03:07. | :03:08. | |
in March, where one couple tried in vain to stop the storm flooding | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
their new bungalow. This gives you an idea of how bad it | :03:13. | :03:31. | |
has been for some people. This bungalow in March has been flooded. | :03:32. | :03:44. | |
The carpet is absolutely so`king. This all happened this afternoon. | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
Let's speak to the owners. How quickly did this happen? Wh`t damage | :03:50. | :04:01. | |
occurred? It started at 2pm. We don't have an upstairs to ptt | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
anything. We had to hope th`t the best. We are insured, thankfully. We | :04:07. | :04:13. | |
have been in touch with thel and were waiting for the assessor to | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
round. We have lived here shnce February. This was our retirement | :04:19. | :04:31. | |
home. We thought, great. Were back square one with the decorathng. We | :04:32. | :04:40. | |
were going to buy a carpet tonight for the lounge. We won't be doing | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
that now. It has not just bden peoples homes that have been | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
affected. It has caused real problems on the road. This road left | :04:50. | :05:01. | |
cars stranded, the A428. Also the Tesco supermarket at bar Hill needed | :05:02. | :05:09. | |
to close. The Fire Service said they have received hundreds of c`lls and | :05:10. | :05:17. | |
have been pumping water out of dozens of homes across | :05:18. | :05:17. | |
Cambridgeshire. The number | :05:18. | :05:20. | |
of parents being fined for taking their children out of school in this | :05:21. | :05:21. | |
region has risen dramatically. Since September last year, | :05:22. | :05:24. | |
headteachers can no longer grant pupils up to 10 days leave | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
in special circumstances. Now each parent is | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
fined ?60 per child. The BBC asked all of our local | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
authorities how many parents they As you can see | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
from those that replied, all In Luton alone they fined over ,200 | :05:34. | :05:43. | |
parents ` an increase of ovdr 6 %. And in Bedford they prosecuted 32, | :05:44. | :05:53. | |
an increase of more than 1000%. But there are concerns that | :05:54. | :06:00. | |
the system isn't fair. I think if I would be critical of | :06:01. | :06:14. | |
the policy as it stands, it is that the guidance to headteachers of what | :06:15. | :06:18. | |
constitutes exceptional circumstances is not clearlx defined | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
are we doubtful stop one arda where government could make a difference | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
is to make it clear to headteachers what does and does not constitute | :06:26. | :06:27. | |
exceptional circumstances. More than 100 Royal Mail st`ff | :06:28. | :06:29. | |
in Peterborough walked out today The action began at the firl's | :06:30. | :06:32. | |

resolve the dispute We have an area of heavy and | :06:42. | :06:59. | |
thundery rain moving across the region over the next few hotrs. That | :07:00. | :07:02. | |
will start to clear north`e`st words. Tonight will be cooldr than | :07:03. | :07:12. | |
last night. Tomorrow, it is shaping up quite nicely. There will be some | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
sunshine around. Workload for the afternoon. Possibly an isol`ted | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
shower. For most of us, it should stay dry right through the day. It | :07:23. | :07:25. | |
is looking pretty pleasant for the afternoon. Here is our outlook. | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
Turning wet and Good evening. We saw some torrential | :07:32. | :07:42. | |
thunderstorms earlier today. Tomorrow looks like a better day for | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
most places. It will go downhill into Sunday. This is heading our | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
way. This is a couple of day's worth of satellite imagery. This is what | :07:50. | :07:56. | |
was the hurricane. Moving from North America, heading towards the United | :07:57. | :07:59. | |
