This inspection took place over two days and a total of eight and a half hours was spent on the premises.

A good response was received from all sources, in that three relatives, four health care professionals, all five people who live in the home and five staff members returned their survey.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1, 2 & 4 People who use the service receive good quality in this outcome area. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. There is clear information about the home, which will help potential people and their relatives/ advocates understand what the service provides. Assessments are completed before people move into the home, in order to make sure that their individual needs can be met. EVIDENCE: The home’s Statement of Purpose and Service User Guide had both been updated and now give accurate information about the service. This helps people who are thinking of living there have a better understanding of what it is like. Also, interested people are invited to the home to view the premises and to meet the other people who live there. There is a comprehensive assessment procedure in place, which includes several visits to the home for the prospective person and their representative. From discussion with the people living in the home they confirmed that they had all visited prior to admission.

Care plans are signed and dated by both the staff member and the person who the plan is about. People spoken with are aware of their care plans and contribute to its content in the reviews. However, the plans should clearly detail involved activities, as well as individual’s short term and long-term goals how they are going to be achieved. Laetus Lodge DS0000066295.V350934.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Risk assessments are in place and include appropriate responses to minimise risks without denying the person the activity they wish to participate in.

There are suitable policies and procedures in place for the protection of vulnerable adults. A copy of the Local Authorities inter-agencies procedures was available in the home.

We ensure that the number of staff on duty and the shifts they work are consistently adjusted to enable us to provide the support the residents need”. This was evidenced in the roster, which is written weekly to allow for people living there being flexible and not having to plan way in advance what they wish to do, it also allows for special events e.g. Bonfire night, when more staff can be rostered on shift at short notice if need be. Laetus Lodge DS0000066295.V350934.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 People spoken to stated that they felt listened to with their wishes being carried out. Since the last inspection, no new staff has started work. However, the manager said that recruitment had recently taken place, as the home is wanting to increase the number of people living there.

Laetus Lodge DS0000066295.V350934.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Conduct and Management of the Home The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 37, 38, 39 & 42 People who use the service receive good quality in this outcome area. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The manager is committed to providing a person centred service to the people who live there and with the staff team, has worked hard to ensure that people receive a safe and effective service. EVIDENCE: The manager was registered when the home opened in May 2006. He is very experienced in the area of learning disability and mental heath. He has a good understanding of the needs of the people residing in the home and is committed to ensuring that the people living in the home live their lives as they want and with the staff team, supports them in all aspects of their lives. Laetus Lodge DS0000066295.V350934.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 Many comments were received from staff, health care professionals and people regarding the manager’s professionalism and management style. Observations and discussions with the people in the home and staff during the inspection were positive, indicating that the manager is respected and well liked by those living and working at the home. The manager must, however, undertake the Registered Managers Award. The manager and staff said that they are well supported by the provider of the service who is very aware of the people who live in the home and staff needs. Monthly Regulation 26 visits are carried out with copies being sent to the Commission. However, because the provider does not have a background in care, the manager should have access to an experienced professional consultant on a regular basis to provide peer support. Observation on the day and feedback from individuals confirmed that their views are taken into account, however, a quality assurance system, which formally seeks the views of the people living there, their relatives, advocates, professionals and stakeholders. During the inspection the manager was able to show the proposed questionnaire to the inspector that he wants to use. There are good systems in place for making sure health and safety checks are up to date. The Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH), assessments was seen to be in place. Gas safety and electrical installation certificates are up to date. Hot water temperatures are also recorded weekly. Fridge and freezer temperatures are taken daily.
