These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People are confident that the care home can support them. This is because there is an accurate assessment of their needs that they, or people close to them, have been involved in. This tells the home all about them, what they hope for and want to achieve, and the support they need. People can decide whether the care home can meet their support and accommodation needs. This is because they, and people close to them, can visit the home and get full, clear, accurate and up to date information. If they decide to stay in the home they know about their rights and responsibilities because there is an easy to understand contract or statement of terms and conditions between the person and the care home that includes how much they will pay and what the home provides for the money. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Peoples care needs were assessed and they were given enough information to make a decision about moving to the home. Evidence: They told us that they have not had any admissions to the home in the past twelve months. We saw that they had developed a new assessment document. The document was detailed and allowed for a thorough assessment of peoples needs prior to admission. As part of the assessment process they gather information from people who know the person best. This could be a relative or other significant people in their lives. They do this to make sure they have comprehensive information to develop a care plan. People are invited to visit the home. The duration of the visits can vary to enable the person to familiarise themselves with the home and also for staff to assess if the placement is appropriate. The have a service user guide which provides good information about what people can
