DS0000019318.V366243.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The Quality rating for this service is 3 star. This means the people who use this service experience excellent quality outcomes. This report draws on information obtained from: the recent Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) completed by the manager, questionnaires completed by the people living at the home and from a full inspection visit carried out on the 12th June 2008.The inspection process included speaking to people living at the home, visitors, staff and a full inspection of records relating to care planning, medication, health and safety, staff records of training and the general management of the home. Surveys from people who use the service and from staff are part of the ongoing inspection of a service and any issues arising from these surveys and other relevant information received by the Commission could then inform further regulatory visits in respect of Croxley House. What the service does well: The care provided to people living at Croxley House is maintained to a high standard and confirmed by people using the service with comments that include “ I wouldn’t want to live any where else” “ They couldn’t do enough for us” and “ We have lovely sing–songs and the activities are always well organised and enjoyable”. The well-managed and effective staff team further evidences these comments. People living at the home can enjoy the extensive grounds surroundings the home that have been further enhanced by the introduction of a variety of wildlife, including two aviaries; free-range chickens (which provide eggs that people go and collect on a daily basis) and some rescue ducks. This is one example where the manager has taken great care to listen to people using the service and enhanced their lives by improving and increasing their opportunities and experiences both within the home and with the introduction more trips outside of the home. The general standard of the environment is good, with a variety of areas being decorated and upgraded since the last inspection was carried out. People’s bedrooms reflect their diverse range of interest and have been personalised to a high standard. DS0000019318.V366243.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 The positive style of management of the home is also reflected by the satisfaction expressed by the staff team, many of who have been working within the home for several years and stated they feel supported and valued by the current manager. The home is in the process of further developing the care planning system and once completed this will provided an excellent profile and working document for individuals living at the home. To ensure peoples safety risk assessments are in place and are reviewed on a regular basis. Health and safety practices are carried out effectively and monitored by the manager, maintenance person and senior members of the staff team. The home creates a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere to everyone who lives at the home or who is visiting. This is truly reflected by the comments received from people using the service, staff, visiting professionals and families. The home is well established within the local community and holds annual fete’s to promote itself and to help fundraise for further projects. The inspector would like to thank everyone who took part in this inspection and helped make the process both enjoyable and rewarding. Also to extend those thanks to the two residents who invited her for lunch and who were able to give a great insight into what its like for someone living at Croxley House. What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better: The home currently provides a high standard of care. There is very little that needs to be done to improve the current service. Although, there are areas of the home’s environment that still require updating, including modernising some of the bathing facilities and general areas of the home.

During this inspection the manager and people living at the home took the opportunity of demonstrating the activity planner where daily events are recorded .The programme is drawn up from the questionnaire/survey that is sent around to everyone to complete in order to ensure everyone has an opportunity to become involved. Since the last inspection was carried out the home has obtained some rescue chickens from the RSPCA and has created a large chicken coup in which people living at the home can go out each morning and collect their eggs for breakfast/supper. This is one example where the manager and staff have DS0000019318.V366243.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 excelled at giving people alternative experiences to enjoy and become involved in. The home also has two aviaries, in the extensive grounds to the back of the home, which house budgerigars (bred at the home) and also some “love” birds, also home bred. Various people living at the home have the responsibility of feeding these birds daily. Another new addition to the home are two rescue ducks. The home has a large minibus, which is used every week to take people on trips to the seaside, garden centres, pub lunches and local places of interest. Every Thursday there is also a ‘mystery’ tour for people to enjoy. Several people we spoke to confirmed the social and leisure opportunities that are provided by the home and particularly enjoy the monthly entertainment provided. There are two activities workers who provide 32 hours per week for activities. It is encouraging to see that Greensleeves Home Trust see activities as an essential part of people’s well-being and provide a generous annual budget in which the manager can allocate on a monthly allowance. The home also has a committed and loyal staff team who are involved in supporting the various fundraising activities inside and outside of the home.

Comments heard during the lunchtime meal were all very positive. There is one main cook during the week and another cook who covers the weekends. Also there is a kitchen assistant covering every day of the week. The manager has re-arranged the staffing at mealtimes in order to ensure there is adequate staffing to assist people with eating their lunch, in a dignified and unhurried manner as well as ensuring there are adequate staff to assist people with leaving the dining room and with their personal care. The whole experience of mealtimes for people living at the home, appears to be relaxed, informal and a socially enjoyable.
