This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The quality rating for this service is 2 Star. This means that the people who use this service experience good quality outcomes.
This unannounced inspection was carried out on Monday 11th may 2009 by one inspector who used the National Minimum Standards for Care Homes for Younger Adults, aged 18 to 65 years as the basis for the inspection. On arrival for this inspection the Care Manager was on duty, a support worker came on duty at 10 am. The Care Manager provided written information regarding staffing, staff training, menu and dietary provision that were observed to be in place at the home. On arrival at Long Eaves one person who uses the service was planning to go out with the support worker when they came on duty. One person who is moving to a bungalow was going out with another support worker who was coming in off duty, to help him with curtains and carpets. Remaining people were deciding on their plans for the day. Arrangements for the day were discussed with us to avoid disruption to people using the service enabling them to continue with their planned routine. We spoke to all the people using the service; all were fully involved in this inspection. We reviewed the care records of two people in detail. We discussed the food provision and menus with the staff and the people using the service. We also looked at the Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) this is a self-assessment tool, and had been completed and sent to us prior to the Key Inspection. Completion of the AQAA is a legal requirement and it enables the service to undertake a self-assessment, which focuses on how well outcomes are being met for people using the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. DS0000005112.V375203.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection?

The Commission consider Standard 2 the key standard to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): People using the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. People who wish to move into the home receive all the information that they require, and they are assessed so that they can be assured the home can meet their needs. EVIDENCE: The AQAA we received prior to the inspection told us that “ the services admissions policy ensures that all people undergo a comprehensive needs assessment prior to admission, the service provide a clear Statement of Purpose which outlines facilities and the provision of services; this is consistent with the services admissions policy. Admission is only agreed following an assessment of the services ability to meet individual need and the suitablility of the person using the service within the current home dynamics. All people have an individual license agreement”. We saw the homes Statement of purpose and the service user’s guide. The service user’s guide has been updated to include staff changes and service provided. DS0000005112.V375203.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 These documents can be provided on audio tape, in large text, photographs, pictorial format or in another language. Staff explain the contents to people using the service. All people using the service received a full assessment of their needs prior to admission to ensure that the service could meet those needs.

The original assessments have been archived. Detailed risk assessments and reviews are on file. Care plans were compiled and agreed with the person using the service following original assessment, ongoing reviews were on files and care plans updated. This means that people could be assured that the home could meet their needs. We talked to the people using the service who told us they were happy at Long Eaves and liked living at the home.

Care plans contained records of health care and dietary information. All people have nutritional assessments 12 monthly. We saw that all people have an individual fire evacuation plan.

One person is going on a visit to the Isle of Wight to see his family, supported by a staff member. We saw one person going to the shops with staff. When people are going shopping with staff, monies taken with people for shopping should be booked out of their cash held in the home. This will ensure peoples money is managed safely. Individuals are supported to take risks; we saw risk assessments on people’s files that cover the needs and wishes of individuals.

Three of them however do attend small work placements of their choice, window cleaning, paper shredding and one is part of a handy-care system locally. All three receive payment for their work.
