The inspector spoke individually with the home’s owner and her husband, the deputy manager, one senior carer, and two members of the care staff team. In addition, three service users were spoken with individually and in-depth discussion also took place with a relative who was visiting at the time of inspection. General discussion also took place with several other residents who were enjoying a social activity in the conservatory during the course of the visit. A number of records and policies and procedures were also examined and a partial tour of the building took place. What the service does well:
The home has a group of staff that are enthusiastic and work well together to provide a good quality of care for residents that live there. Residents spoken with felt staff had built up a good relationship with them and work hard to improve their quality of life. Routines within the home are flexible to make sure that the people who live there can enjoy the lifestyle they have chosen for themselves that includes social activities and outings.

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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 1 & 3 The home’s Statement of Purpose and Service Users Guide are good at providing service users and prospective service users with details of the services the home provides enabling an informed decision about admission to the home. The pre admission assessment information to identify what the prospective service user can do well and what help may be required is detailed in order to establish if current needs, wants and wishes could be met at the home. EVIDENCE: Prospective service users have the written information they need to make an informed choice about whether to live at the home. As recommended at the last inspection, the Statement of Purpose and Service Users Guide now incorporate the address of the home to supplement the existing information. Although there is evidence that service users questionnaires have been developed and introduced, service users views of the home have not been included in the Service Users Guide. The collated views of service users from the questionnaires should be incorporated in the Service Users Guide or alternatively if photocopies of the actual questionnaires are used for this
Briarwood Rest Home F57 F09 S63007 Briarwood Rest Home V228757 060605 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 9 purpose, this should be with the service users consent and any name or identifying detail removed to ensure confidentially. Service users are only admitted to the home following a pre admission assessment by the proprietor of current strengths and needs. In some instances, the information obtained by the proprietor is supplemented by a health and/or social services multi-disciplinary assessment that provides further information regarding the prospective service user. This collated information enables the proprietor to make an informed decision as to whether Briarwood Rest Home could satisfactorily address the prospective service users current strengths, needs, wants and wishes. The information obtained forms the basis of the initial plan of care. Briarwood Rest Home F57 F09 S63007 Briarwood Rest Home V228757 060605 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 7,8,9 & 10 There is a now a clearly written, holistic care plan for all service users that incorporated the outcomes of relevant risk assessments.

EVIDENCE: The service user plan of care that is generated from a comprehensive assessment is drawn up with each service user and provides the basis for the care to be delivered. Since the last inspection care plans have been redeveloped to good effect. Care plans evidenced at the time of inspection provided a holistic account of the individual service users health, personal and social care needs that incorporated outcomes of the risk assessment process. The content of the care plan is discussed with the service user and staff sign a form indicating that the discussion has taken place. However it is understood that on some occasions, the service user chooses not to sign the form indicating their understanding of and acceptance of the care plan. In these instances it is recommended that this information be recorded. There was
Briarwood Rest Home F57 F09 S63007 Briarwood Rest Home V228757 060605 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 11 evidence of the individual care plan being reviewed on at least a monthly basis and amended as required. A service user spoken with individually said she was aware of her care plan that had been discussed with her. Although somewhat vague as to the detail of the care plan, this service user was full of praise for the help and support she received from the staff team. It was evidenced through discussion, observation and documentation that service users health needs are fully met. There is a good relationship with health and social care professionals in order to maintain service users health and social well-being. Discussion with service users, staff and a relative who was visiting at the time of inspection confirmed that the maintenance of service users privacy and dignity is upheld at all times. Policies and procedures are in place that guide staff to ensure service users privacy and dignity is respected at all times. The preferred term of address of each service user is identified at the time of admission and always respected.

The Commission considers Standards 27, 29, and 30 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 28,29 & 30 Required recruitment processes had not been followed resulting in service users receiving care from three staff members who had not been properly vetted. This potentially leaves people who use the service at risk. Nationally recognised training for care workers is ongoing in order to provide a skilled and knowledgeable staff group that can offer a high quality service to residents accommodated. Further training should be made available to all staff that have not undertaken the required training in order to increase their skills and knowledge. EVIDENCE: At present two members of the care staff team have achieved an NVQ Level 3 qualification in care with another member of staff pursuing this award. In addition, the majority of the remaining care staff are currently undertaking NVQ Level 2 with recently appointed members of the care staff team hoping to begin this course of study in the near future. To supplement this nationally recognised training, a number of staff have also undertaken further short course training that includes, medication handling, health and safety training, dementia care and food safety. Whilst it is recognised that staff training has been given priority, all staff that have not done so must undertake the specific training required by regulation. Induction training to ensure newly appointed care staff have the basis skills is provided, however it could not be confirmed that the current induction training programme has been evidenced against the ‘Training Organisation For The Personal Social Services’ (TOPSS) specifications to ensure compliance. It is recommended that this be undertaken to make sure newly appointed care staff
Briarwood Rest Home F57 F09 S63007 Briarwood Rest Home V228757 060605 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 18 receive the recommended full induction-training programme. Whilst foundation training to TOPSS specifications has not been developed and introduced, it is expected that in future, all newly appointed staff who do not have a qualification will commence NVQ training within the first six months of their appointment. Three new members of staff took up employment at the home in recent months however a Criminal Record Bureau clearance and POVA first clearance that is required had not be submitted as part of the recruitment process. These clearances should have been obtained and deemed to be satisfactory prior to the applicants taking up post. An immediate requirement notice was issued for the proprietor to ensure that these checks are taken up retrospectively and that all appropriate clearances are taken up prior to any further new members of staff starting work at the home. Staff spoken with were enthusiastic about the training opportunities provided and felt that the training undertaken had had a positive effect in providing a high quality service for residents accommodated. Staff also commented that they felt that the home was well managed with a good staff group who supported each other. Likewise service users spoken with spoke highly of the staff team and of the support and care received.
