What the care home does well

Residents are fully involved in life at the home. Residents are able to make decisions on a daily basis and support workers encourage and enable the residents to be as independent as possible. The registered manager and the support workers have a very good understanding of the residents support needs and this support is given in a respectful and sensitive way. There is a relaxed and friendly atmosphere throughout the home and the support workers go about their daily work in a positive and lively manner. Families and friends are encouraged to be involved in the life of the home and visiting can be carried out at any time. Appropriate care planning is in place and records necessary for the health, welfare and protection of the residents are maintained.

What has improved since the last inspection?

A home safety questionnaire has been developed and this is completed with the residents every six months. This enables the manager to review the day to day tasks that the residents are able complete on their own. A healthy eating clinic has been held with the support of the community nurse. This gave the residents the opportunity to learn about healthy eating and the benefits this has. A nine seater mini bus has been purchased for when the residents go out together and a four door car has been purchased to enable the support workers to take smaller groups of residents out. A table football has been purchased. This is kept on the first floor landing and residents are able to play at any time. A quality of life board has been developed and is kept in the main hallway of the home. This looks at different aspects of the resident`s daily lives, includes statements about how they feel and includes photographs to confirm those statements.Statements include: `I take part in every day choices`. `People listen to my views`. `People treat me with respect`. `I am safe from bullying and abuse`. This is seen as good practice. Three windows now have Internal double glazing and one window has been replaced.

What the care home could do better:

Ensure that identified maintenance work is carried out. This would make sure that the premises continue to be kept in a good state of repair internally and externally.

This was an unannounced visit, which took place over a four and a half hour period on Wednesday 16th May 2007. When undertaking key inspections the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) focuses on the outcomes for residents living in a home. In order to do this, the inspector ‘case tracked’ three residents. This means the inspector checked their care records and met with them. Observation was also used to evidence whether care and support needs were being met. A further two residents were spoken with during the visit to gather their views of the home. The inspector was able to talk to the registered manager and three members of staff on duty at the time of the visit and observed them going about their daily work. Questionnaires were also sent to the ten service users currently living in the home and their relatives to gain their views of the agency. Comments received from relatives included: “Care Bagatelle provides a caring environment for our daughter”. “My daughter is very happy at Bagatelle, She would be very upset if she had to move”. “My daughter likes her independence, but staff are always their if she needs help”. “Bagatelle is a super place and our daughter is very happy there”. “I always feel fully informed of changes and developments both in relation to the organisation and issues relating to my daughter”. “A good team”. Comments received from residents included: “I can do my own thing”. “I am alright thank you, I am very happy”.

Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Prospective users’ individual aspirations and needs are assessed. Prospective service users know that the home that they will choose will meet their needs and aspirations. Prospective service users have an opportunity to visit and to “test drive” the home. Each service user has an individual written contract or statement of terms and conditions with the home. The Commission consider Standard 2 the key standard to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1,2,4,5 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Resident’s needs are assessed to ensure that their care and support needs can be met. EVIDENCE: All the residents living at Care Bagatelle have previously lived at Care Shangton, a sister home to Care Bagatelle. Whilst at Care Shangton their needs are assessed to determine whether they can move to the more independent living facilities offered at Care Bagatelle and whether this would be the lifestyle that the resident wishes to adopt. The registered manager explained that all prospective residents are invited to look around the home and stay for a meal with the other residents, they are then invited to stay for a night or two to enable them to get a feel of the home and to decide whether it is the right place for them. All residents spoken with confirmed that they were able to visit the home before moving in and comments included in the questionnaires received also confirmed that they had had the opportunity to look around and stay for a meal. CARE Bagatelle DS0000001642.V330026.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Comments received included: “I visited and came for tea” “I came to look around”. “I came to have a look before I made my decision”. “I looked around and said yes”. Once living in the home the resident’s needs are further assessed and the necessary risk assessments are carried out. The registered manager explained that if risks are identified with regard to day to day tasks, such as using the microwave, the support workers will work with the resident over a period of time to train the resident to carry out the task safely enabling them to be as independent as possible. This is seen as good practice. All residents have a statement of terms and conditions of residency. This document includes details of what services will be provided and is signed by both the resident and a representative of the home. A copy of this document is given to the resident and a copy is included in their paperwork kept at the home. All files checked on this occasion included a copy of this document.

This included one resident deciding what to have for lunch and a second deciding what to buy at the shops. All residents are fully involved in life at the home. Issues that arise are discussed on a daily basis and resident meetings are held once a month. Minutes of the last meeting held in April 2007 were seen. On speaking with one of the support workers on duty during the visit the inspector was informed that four or five of the residents had been involved in her interview when she applied to work at the home. Support workers enable the residents to take responsible risks on a daily basis and risk assessments are in place for all activities undertaken. An independent living home safety questionnaire is also completed with each resident every six months to reaffirm that the residents remain safe when carrying out every day tasks. If issues arise a number of training sessions are put in place to enable the resident to relearn the task and enable them to carry it out safely again. Residents are enabled to live an independent life style within the home and support workers support the service users to meet their individual goals. A relative stated in one of the questionnaires received: “The staff at Bagatelle care, support, promote independence and self worth, communicate and listen to people, both residents and carers and they put the residents needs and wishes first”. A second questionnaire stated: “Bagatelle and the staff have been most supportive to my daughter at all times, going I feel that extra mile to meet her needs”.
