What the care home does well

The home has a good system in place for assessing the needs of potential residents, planning their care and working to meet their health and personal care needs. Care is delivered in such a way as to uphold residents’ privacy and dignity. There were generally good practices in place around the storage, recording and administration of residents’ medication. Where any issues are found with medication administration these were being addressed with the staff team at staff meetings. The home provides a range of suitable activities and residents maintain links with the local community. There is good consultation with residents particularly around the meals provided. The home has a high percentage of staff with a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ).Manchester CourtDS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.docVersion 5.2

What has improved since the last inspection?

The statement of purpose has been reviewed and updated. Where placements have been made by the local mental health NHS trust, information has been obtained about residents’ needs. The fire door leading into the dining room has been prepared. Work has been carried out to maintain the environment of the home.

What the care home could do better:

A more detailed record should be kept of any special diets provided for residents. The adult protection policy should include the contact details for the local authority adult protection team. Dining room chairs should be replaced or refurbished. Staff recruitment procedures must be robust with all required information being obtained prior to employment and required checks made in order to protect residents.

This means the people who use this service experience adequate quality outcomes. One inspector carried out the inspection over two days in November 2009. The responsible individual was present for both days of the visit and the registered manager for the second day. The inspection visit consisted of a tour of the premises and examination of residents’ care files. In addition training was looked at as well as medication storage and administration and documents relating to the management and safe running of the home. Two residents were spoken with to gain their views of the service. An Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) form was received from the home prior to the inspection visit. This was gave us most of the information we asked for although lacked information in some areas about improvements to the service. The judgements contained in this report have been made from evidence gathered during the inspection, which included a visit to the service and takes into account the views and experiences of people using the service. What the service does well: The home has a good system in place for assessing the needs of potential residents, planning their care and working to meet their health and personal care needs. Care is delivered in such a way as to uphold residents’ privacy and dignity. There were generally good practices in place around the storage, recording and administration of residents’ medication. Where any issues are found with medication administration these were being addressed with the staff team at staff meetings.

Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 7 DETAILS OF INSPECTOR FINDINGS CONTENTS Choice of Home (Standards 1–6) Health and Personal Care (Standards 7-11) Daily Life and Social Activities (Standards 12-15) Complaints and Protection (Standards 16-18) Environment (Standards 19-26) Staffing (Standards 27-30) Management and Administration (Standards 31-38) Scoring of Outcomes Statutory Requirements Identified During the Inspection Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 8 Choice of Home The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 6 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Each service user has a written contract/ statement of terms and conditions with the home. No service user moves into the home without having had his/her needs assessed and been assured that these will be met. Service users and their representatives know that the home they enter will meet their needs. Prospective service users and their relatives and friends have an opportunity to visit and assess the quality, facilities and suitability of the home. Service users assessed and referred solely for intermediate care are helped to maximise their independence and return home. The Commission considers Standards 3 and 6 the key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 3 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. The homes assessment procedure ensures that all prospective residents receive a full assessment of their needs before they move into the home so that they can receive the care and support that they require. EVIDENCE: The assessment documentation for two residents who had recently moved into the home was looked at. With both residents the home had carried out their own assessment before the resident moved in to the home. These assessments had been reviewed and updated although with one of the residents the original assessment document could not be found. Information had been obtained from the NHS mental health trust where this was relevant to the resident’s needs. One of the residents had visited the home before they moved in. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 9 The home does not provide intermediate care and so standard 6 does not apply. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 10 Health and Personal Care The intended outcomes for Standards 7 – 11 are: 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. The service user’s health, personal and social care needs are set out in an individual plan of care. Service users’ health care needs are fully met. Service users, where appropriate, are responsible for their own medication, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. Service users feel they are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. Service users are assured that at the time of their death, staff will treat them and their family with care, sensitivity and respect. The Commission considers Standards 7, 8, 9 and 10 the key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 7,8,9 & 10 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. The home works well to meet residents’ health, personal care and medication needs whilst upholding their privacy and dignity. EVIDENCE: Care plans described specific needs and how these would be met through staff actions. They had been generally reviewed on a monthly basis and some had evidence of good evaluation of the care and support given. One care plan for nutrition showed an individualised approach giving information about the resident’s food preferences. Another care plan for dealing with a resident’s behaviour described how medication could be used to help with anxiety. A daily record is maintained for each resident. Risk assessments had been completed for such areas as mobility, moving and smoking. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 11 Where appropriate a monthly record of weight was being kept. There was recorded evidence of residents receiving input for health needs from visiting health care professionals such as community psychiatric nurses and General Practitioners (GPs) as well as attending hospital appointments. Residents had also been receiving visits from an optician and staff had been given training in conjunction with this. One resident who had diabetes had the management of this described in a care plan that included a reference of when to involve medical attention. Medication, storage administration and recording arrangements were looked at. Storage was secure and appropriate arrangements were in place for controlled drugs although there were none kept in the home at the time of the inspection. Topical medication such as creams and ointments were being stored separately from oral medication which is good practice. Temperatures for medication stored in the medication cupboard were not being monitored; this should be carried out to check that residents’ medication is being stored at the correct temperature. A notice on the front of one of the medication cupboards reminded staff to date medication on opening however a tub of cream and a bottle of liquid medication had not been dated when opened. Examination of the Medication Administration Charts showed that some hand written directions had not signed by the staff member making the entry or checked and signed by a second member of staff. This was also the case where one course of medication had been stopped. Medication administration or omission had been consistently recorded except for a topical cream for one resident. This was discussed with the registered manager who had addressed this with the staff team at a recent staff meeting. Where medication was prescribed on an ‘as requires’ basis then the use of this medication was detailed in care plans for two of the resident’s records that were looked at. It is recommended that a check is made if there are plans or protocols for all residents prescribed medication on this basis. An audit system was in place that checked on the recording for one medication round a day. This involved checking the amounts of medication left after the round to ensure that correct doses had been given. Any problems with medication administration were being discussed at staff meetings to ensure that staff were aware of them and were improving their practice. At the time of the inspection visit there were no residents self medicating although lockable storage facilities were in place if these were needed. Residents confirmed that staff knocked on doors before entering and were polite to them. There are no shared rooms in the home. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 12 Daily Life and Social Activities The intended outcomes for Standards 12 - 15 are: 12. 13. 14. 15. Service users find the lifestyle experienced in the home matches their expectations and preferences, and satisfies their social, cultural, religious and recreational interests and needs. Service users maintain contact with family/ friends/ representatives and the local community as they wish. Service users are helped to exercise choice and control over their lives. Service users receive a wholesome appealing balanced diet in pleasing surroundings at times convenient to them. The Commission considers all of the above key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12,13,14 & 15 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. Residents benefit from a varied activities programme, good social contact and a selection of meals planned through consultation about their preferences. EVIDENCE: The home had an activities programme that was described as following a “loose timetable.” This included film nights; bingo, games and Karaoke. There were also trips outside of the home including trips out in the evenings. Pub lunches and shopping trips to the town were popular. Photographs were displayed in the office of a residents’ trip out to a local preserved railway. A number of residents made frequent visits to two local social clubs. Some residents were receiving visits from representatives of local churches. During the inspection visit one resident had been shopping in Gloucester. Information about advocacy services is available in the home. One resident had an advocate and a care plan was in place for this. Consideration was also being given to arranging an advocate for another resident. Residents’ rooms Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 13 were personalised to various degrees. Some residents handled their own financial affairs. Meals in the home consisted of a cooked lunch and in the evening a cooked snack or sandwiches and soup. Breakfast was cereals and toast. Information about the main meal for the day was posted on a notice board. One resident spoken to was aware of what was on the menu for lunch on that day and described the meals as “Alright”. Another described the meals as “Very Good” and commented on the varied menu. Residents were observed eating lunch in the dining room while others ate at small tables in the lounge and some in their own rooms. At the time of the inspection visit the home was providing a special diet for one resident. Records of the meals provided had been kept although there should be a more detailed record of any special diets. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 14 Complaints and Protection The intended outcomes for Standards 16 - 18 are: 16. 17. 18. Service users and their relatives and friends are confident that their complaints will be listened to, taken seriously and acted upon. Service users’ legal rights are protected. Service users are protected from abuse. The Commission considers Standards 16 and 18 the key standards to be. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 16,17 & 18 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. Information is available if any resident or their representative should wish to make a complaint and the home’s approach to training staff should ensure that residents are protected from abuse. EVIDENCE: The home had a complaints procedure and this was on display on a notice board opposite the office. This was in need of review to include the most recent contact details for the Commission. The home had not received any complaints in the twelve months prior to the inspection. The management of the home had received training in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and information about the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards was displayed on a notice board. The homes adult protection policy was looked at this made reference to the Department of Health guidelines ‘No Secrets’. The policy also referred to the local authority’s Adult Protection team although would benefit from their direct contact details. All staff had received training in protecting vulnerable adults. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 15 Environment The intended outcomes for Standards 19 – 26 are: 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. Service users live in a safe, well-maintained environment. Service users have access to safe and comfortable indoor and outdoor communal facilities. Service users have sufficient and suitable lavatories and washing facilities. Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. Service users’ own rooms suit their needs. Service users live in safe, comfortable bedrooms with their own possessions around them. Service users live in safe, comfortable surroundings. The home is clean, pleasant and hygienic. The Commission considers Standards 19 and 26 the key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 19,20 & 26 People using the service experience adequate quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Residents live in a clean environment with personalised individual rooms. EVIDENCE: A tour of the premises was undertaken. Communal areas consisted of a lounge and dining room on the ground floor with a smoking lounge on the first floor. This had recently been redecorated. At the rear of the home there is a small patio area. During the inspection visit, the home’s maintenance man was carrying out routine maintenance. There was evidence of refurbishment and redecoration in a number of areas of the home. The responsible individual described plans for the refurbishment of the kitchen that was to include the replacement of kitchen units. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 16 Some dining room chairs were not in a good condition despite this being raised at the previous key inspection. These should be checked and replaced or refurbished depending on the condition. Residents’ individual rooms were warm and contained various degrees of personalisation. One resident commented that the lighting in his room was not bright enough and the maintenance man was looking into replacing the existing bulb with a brighter one. All individual rooms have washbasins although no en suite facilities are provided. The laundry room was looked at on the first day of the inspection visit; some work was needed on one of the wall surfaces to provide a washable surface. This work had been completed on the second day of the inspection visit. Hand washing facilities are provided in bathrooms throughout the home. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 17 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 27 – 30 are: 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users’ needs are met by the numbers and skill mix of staff. Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission consider all the above are key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 27,28,29 & 30 People using the service experience adequate quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Resident’s needs are met by the numbers and skills of staff with good training although recruitment practices have not been robust and have potentially put residents at risk. EVIDENCE: Typical staffing arrangements in the home in the home consisted of four or five staff in the morning undertaking care duties as well as cooking and cleaning. In the afternoon there was four care staff with an additional two hours being worked from 4pm to 6pm to cover a busy time around the evening meal. In addition one resident was receiving an additional two hours care for five days a week. At night there is one waking and one sleeping member of staff. The home had twelve out of fifteen permanent care staff with an NVQ at level 2 or above. Records for two recently recruited members of staff were looked at. Examination of the recruitment files showed that all of the required information had been obtained prior to employment except checks against the Protection of Vulnerable Adults register (PoVA) or as it is now known the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) adult first check. The home had started staff Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 18 working without a Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) disclosure and so were required to carry out an initial check against the PoVA or ISA register before the person started work in the home. Although it was reported that these checks had been carried out no supporting evidence could be found during the inspection visit or when requested after the inspection visit. It must be concluded that the members of staff had started work in the home without these checks being made. It was reported that staff were supervised until their CRB disclosures had been received. The home’s AQAA document indicated that satisfactory pre-employment checks had been carried out on all staff. New staff were given an induction into the working of the home. Although it was unclear if staff that are new to working in care are given induction training to the Common Induction Standards and the home should check this. Staff had also received training in conflict management, care planning and customer service. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 19 Management and Administration The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 38 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. Service users live in a home which is run and managed by a person who is fit to be in charge, of good character and able to discharge his or her responsibilities fully. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. The home is run in the best interests of service users. Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping, policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users and staff are promoted and protected. The Commission considers Standards 31, 33, 35 and 38 the key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31,33,35 & 38 People using the service experience adequate quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Despite good quality assurance work in a number of areas, there is still improvement needed and management input into recruitment practices to ensure the safety and well being of the residents. EVIDENCE: The registered manager had been registered for a year and has achieved the registered manager’s award and NVQ level four in care. She had recently undertaken training in the Mental Capacity Act 2005 and the related Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards. Manchester Court DS0000016498.V378653.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 20 A number of audits were in place looking at such areas as medication, cleaning, maintenance and health and safety as part of the quality assurance in the home. Despite this recruitment practices require some quality monitoring and management input to ensure the safety of residents. Feedback sheets had also been received and in the past the results had been analysed and included in an annual report. Residents meetings had also provided an opportunity for any issues to be raised and minutes of these were looked at during the inspection visit. Residents had raised issues such as meal choices, activities, staffing levels and choice of key worker. As discussed during the inspection visit, arrangements should now be made for visits and reports under regulation 26. The arrangements for looking after residents’ money was looked at and satisfactory arrangements were in place. A check on the money held for one person showed this to be accurate in relation to the records kept. Records were generally in good order although a record of an assessment made on the needs of one resident before they moved into the home could not be found. This should have been held in the resident’s care plan file. Staff had received training in infection control, fire safety, first aid, manual handling and food hygiene. Heating and electrical systems and appliances had been serviced and maintained as well as hoists and the lift. The storage of cleaning materials was checked and all containers displayed their correct original labels. Hot water temperatures were being checked and recorded on a monthly basis as were checks on window restrictors. A risk assessment had been completed for Legionella this should be checked against Health and Safety Executive guidelines to ensure that it fully addresses any potential risks. The home did not have a security risk assessment; this was discussed with the registered manager and is recommended following recent criminal activity in the area affecting care homes. The home has a fire risk assessment in place.
