What the care home does well

Blackberry Hill is friendly and comfortable home. Staff are dedicated to providing a good standard of daily living, support and personal care for the people in residence. Families comment included that their relative enjoys `a good quality of life` at Blackberry Hill. People living at the home looked well cared for and appeared happy and relaxed. Families commented that staff are `doing a good job`, `keep them up to date`, `staff are happy and friendly` and that there is a ` lovely homely feel with a consistent care staff team`. The management of the home is clearly organised and the home runs with the best interests of the people living there in mind. Staff have confidence in the management of the home. Staff are professional and knowledgeable about the people in their care. Staff commented that their induction was good and they have access to training. Professional feedback to CSCI indicated that there is individualised care and staff are professional, have good relationships with the residents and the home is a relaxed and friendly place. There was good evidence of work having been undertaken to ensure staff are aware of the issues around safeguarding vulnerable people in their care. Families commented that there is always `someone to talk to`, `comfortable with the staff`, regarding concerns the home staff `respond straight away`. Families felt that their relatives were `valued and cared for by staff with excellent care skills`. Blackberry Hill was described by relatives as `Home from home` and a `settled and secure home environment`.

What has improved since the last inspection?

The safeguarding issues raised at the last inspection have been addressed. The manager is actively trying to access more local banking for people in residence who require it.

What the care home could do better:

The recording onto medication administration records (MAR`s) should be carried out each time a cream application is due. Hand transcribed entries on the MAR`s should be countersigned as a safeguard to validate the entry being correct. Staff suggested communication could be improved with a verbal rather than written handover and earlier notification when a care plan is changed. One relative raised a concern that head office does not always respond promptly. Families suggested more use of the homes IT such as web cam and e-mail would be helpful to them to feel more in touch with their relatives.
