What did we do for this annual service review? We looked at all the information we have received, or asked for, since the last key inspection. This included: The annual quality assurance assessment (AQAA) that was set to us by the service. The AQAA is a self-assessment that focuses on how well outcomes are being met for people who use the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. Information we have about how the service has managed any complaints. What the service has told us about anything that has happened in the service, these are called notifications and are a legal requirement. The previous key inspection. What has this told us about the service? The service sent us their AQAA when we asked for it. The information was comprehensive and included clear plans for the next 12 months that demonstrate a commitment to continued improvement. The AQAA was completed in a manner that suggested the manager had a reflective and insightful approach to service development and delivery. The service has kept us informed of incidents at the home and shown that they dealt with these appropriately. We have not received any concerns or complaints about the service. What are we going to do as a result of this annual service review? We are not going to change our inspection plan, and will do a key inspection by 15th May 2011. However, we can inspect the service at any time if we have concerns about the quality of the service or the safety of the people using the service.
