Assessments documentation was viewed in the three care files case tracked. One of the prospective residents assessments was carried out during their visit to the home. Care and support needs are identified and care plans were commenced at point of entry to the home. A full assessment of the residents’ individual needs has been carried out to cover all healthcare including medication, dental health opticians, hearing aids, mobility, GP or District Nurse input.

The residents’ care is reviewed on a fairly regular basis but some signatures and dates are missing in some of the documentation. Care management reviews are carried out and copies of these are on file. One recently admitted resident has a Person Held Record, which is issued by their social worker and all assessment documentation and their review processes are recorded in this document and held in the home. This is used for each review. Photos of residents are available when administering medication and there is a list of staff trained to administer medications in place. The deputy Manager has requested that residents GP’s review all their medication. Some of which is already done. This is good practice. The home continues to provide training on the management of medication in the home and the next one is booked for July.

Residents interviewed stated, “I’m happy and everyone seems friendly and helpful” and “put it this way, I can’t complain and staff are nice at night”. Residents are encouraged to continue contact with their friends and relatives with some residents receiving visitors on a regular basis. Other residents go out to spend time with their friends and relatives. Comments from residents includes, “I see my son and granddaughter a couple of times a week, they can come at any time and have a cup of tea if wished”.

EVIDENCE: All complaints and concerns are logged no matter how minor. This is good practice. The inspector viewed the complaints log and noted that many of the concerns raised were from residents about other residents in the home. The home needs to be aware of the residents’ dignity when recorded such concerns. A valuables book needs to be in place so that a record is kept of all valuables and the resident or their family would have a copy. The home has a lockable facility. The home has policies and procedures including a whistle blowing policy in place.

Some areas of the home require decoration, in particular the ground floor bathroom/toilet areas.

Ann Slade Care Home, The DS0000005316.V295927.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 The upstairs medi bath needs repair to the rubber seal. The home has also had a recent roof leak into the top floor, which has since been repaired. The ceiling tiles are in the process of being replaced.

At the rear of the home part of the garden is being used to store building materials as there are improvements being made to an outhouse.

Ann Slade Care Home, The DS0000005316.V295927.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 A visitor to the home commented, “I like the home, it’s very welcoming, always clean and fresh and residents are always happy”. Staff interviewed are very happy at the home with many of the staff having worked here for some years. Staff comments include “I’ve been in quite a lot of homes and this is a very nice home, I get on alright with Jenny and Edward (deputy and Manager)” and “Jenny and Edward are fabulous, they are always there for the residents if they need a chat in the office and I’m able to approach management, I have no problems”. A visitor to the home stated, “If I had to put my parents in a home I would choose this one, I visit sixteen each week”. Residents are canvassed for their views through questionnaires and also residents meetings take place on a monthly basis with results and minutes published. Minutes viewed evidenced various items up for discussion including, activities planned/requested, foods with the emphasis on salads and strawberries. Residents interviewed confirmed they attended the meetings, “I attend the meetings when there is one”. The most recent questionnaires completed in March 2006 showed a generally positive response. Relatives’ questionnaires were completed in March of this year and viewed as positive and included letters of thanks. Staff meetings also take place on a regular basis with items discussed including, 1 to 1 with residents, policies and procedures and care plans. Individual financial records are kept of all transactions with personal allowance books viewed and evidencing payments for chiropody, hairdressing and personal allowance receipts. Policies and procedures have been reviewed in January of this year. Servicing and certificates for all equipment, electrical and gas appliances is in place and up to date. Hot water temperatures are recorded and showers are sterilised weekly with records kept. The deputy was unable to produce the hoist servicing documentation and has therefore been asked to fax the appropriate certificates to the Commission. One of the residents’ bedrooms had a hair dryer attached to an extension lead in their bedroom. This was lying on the floor. This needs to be addressed to ensure residents and staff safety. Staff have a training programme that includes mandatory training with evidence of attendance in staff files. Induction training is in place for new staff. Accident records are generally completed but one recent minor accident was not recorded therefore staff need to be made aware that this has to be addressed.
