What the care home does well

From discussions with the manager and staff, it was felt that they have a good understanding of the needs of the residents and issues related to their mental health needs. Residents said that they feel settled within the home and that the support provided met their needs. Most of the residents pursue activities both in and away from home, which allows them to lead full and active lives. These are based on individual choices and wishes. Residents stated that "the staff are brilliant", "they take care of me" and "I`m able to do my own things". Additional support is available from other health and social care workers who also help residents maintain their mental health and well-being.

What has improved since the last inspection?

The manager has arranged for work to be carried out throughout the home, which is making an improvement to the environment. Further work is planned. Feedback received from one resident was that she was very happy with the changes that had been made within her bedroom and bathroom and that "things were much easier". Improvements have also been made with regards to the choice of activities being offered to some residents, encouraging them to take part in new activities or take part in things of interest. Care plans were better organised. Information was clear and gave staff details about the resident, their support needs and how they should be met. Further training has also been offered to staff giving them knowledge and skills in supporting residents with mental health needs. The medication system had been improved. Items were stored safely. Minor changes were needed to the records so that they clearly stated what medication is being given to the residents and practice is seen to be safe.

What the care home could do better:

The manager must make sure that all information and checks needed when taking on new staff is held on file before they start work, ensuring the service users are safe and protected. Several criminal record checks are also due for renewal, these are to be applied for. Medication records need to be improved. Hand written changes and new medication needs to be clearly written on the forms, dated and signed by staff so that practices followed by staff are safe and residents are not put at risk. As already stated training courses have been taken by staff. Files need to be developed to show what training has been completed.

Each resident has a communication diary, which is completed by the staff on a daily basis. This enables information to be passed within the team of individuals’ daily activities, if any issues have arisen or for monitoring purposes. The manager also completes a weekly update, summarising events from the previous week and if any follow up action is needed. This was seen to include the monitoring of service users dietary needs and mental health due to recent changes in their health and behaviour.

Encouragement is offered enabling individuals to pursue their own interests. For example one resident enjoys gardening, therefore several garden pots and flowers have been purchased, which have then been made up and sit in the homes back yard. Garden furniture has also been purchased so that individuals can sit outside and enjoy the good weather. Other residents have been encouraged to make use of the local park. The manager arranged for the use of a wheelchair for one person who has difficulties with mobility so that she too could visit the park. A number of residents choose to pursue their own interests visiting the local shopping centres, meeting friends and family. Several of the residents have planned a holiday.

Service users retain, administer and control their own medication where appropriate, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 18 to 21 The health and personal care needs of residents are consistently met ensuring their well-being is maintained.

Personal care support is provided in varying degrees depending on needs and information is recorded. In the main residents are prompted in maintaining their own personal care. Two residents who share a downstairs bedroom have an en-suite bathroom, which has recently been adapted with a walk in shower and chair. This enables staff to assist them in meeting their personal care needs. BROWFIELD RESIDENTIAL CARE HOME F56 F06 S8421 Browfield V212772 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 14 The medication system was examined. Improvements have been made by the home following an inspection by the CSCI pharmacist. Areas of development were found with regards to hand written records where changes have been made to medication. Where doses have changed or stopped information needs to clearly evidence when such changes were made and by whom. The same information is required for new medication and double checked ensuring what has been recorded reflects what is detailed on the prescription. This will ensure that medication is being administered as prescribed and practice undertaken by staff is safe. Practice in relation to controlled drugs was found to safe and appropriate records made. Recent medication training has also been undertaken by some members of the team. Residents’ medication is also regularly reviewed with health professionals ensuring the stability of their mental health. Generally service users do not self medicate. One resident held some medication. This involved the completion of a risk assessment, which was agreed by relevant parties and is monitored to ensure that the resident is able to manage. This gives residents further opportunities to learn new skills and take responsibility in maintaining their overall well-being. The manager has spoken with each of the residents with regards to their wishes in the event of ill-health or death. For those who have specific wishes this has been detailed on their care plan, others have preferred not to discuss the matter and this has been respected.

BROWFIELD RESIDENTIAL CARE HOME F56 F06 S8421 Browfield V212772 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 17 The home also has a dining room and three lounges, two of which are the designated smoking areas.

A programme of training has been identified equipping staff with the knowledge and skills needed in meeting the needs of service users. Recruitment and selection procedures need to be improved ensuring that the service users are protected. EVIDENCE: The manager of the home has recently been registered by the CSCI as registered manager for Browfield. Previously the owner had managed the home. The changes in management appear to have worked well and positive relationships have been developed within the team. The majority of staff have worked at the home for a number of years and have developed good working relationships with the service users who in the main have also been resident at the home for long periods of time. Staffing levels are sufficient to meet the needs of the residents. As the staff team is small with little turnover, recent recruitment has not been undertaken. The Manager is aware of the information to be held on staff personnel files as well as Criminal Record Checks. Staff files seen did not hold all information required. New recruitment information has been developed and should be used when recruiting new staff so that all necessary details and BROWFIELD RESIDENTIAL CARE HOME F56 F06 S8421 Browfield V212772 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 19 checks are carried out prior to commencing work. Criminal record checks have previously been carried out on all staff, several were identified for renewal and these should be applied for. Recent training has taken place and has included, Topss Internet induction (1 day), medication, food hygiene, vulnerable adults and mental health issues. Further training has been planned in relation to health and safety and dementia. Training records are held however some evidence was not found. These should be developed.

Five members of the team have recently completed the NVQ training and are currently awaiting verification of their results. The manager has already achieved the Level 4/Registered managers Award. A supervision system has also been introduced. From records seen not all staff had received regular 1-2-1 support session.

This practice is agreed as a form of support for all team members however there may be specific issues that staff members wish to discuss individually with the manager, therefore every effort should be made for supervision to be made available. Records are made of all supervisions and minutes of team meetings.
