What the care home does well

The home has experienced a difficult few months but this visit showed that staff and the new manager are very keen to make improvements. Staff and the manager work well as a team and residents are satisfied with the care they receive. There are good numbers of staff on duty enabling them to meet the residents` needs. Residents enjoy good food that is well prepared and nicely presented. Residents are confident that any concerns they have will be dealt with properly. Residents felt they were treated with respect and their dignity was maintained, however, the chiropodist was attending to their feet in the lounges in full view of all and it was not clear if residents had agreed to this.

What has improved since the last inspection?

An unannounced visit was carried out in April 2006 and this showed serious failures regarding recruitment practices, staff training, induction, supervision, medication, quality monitoring and care planning. The July 2006 visit showed the newly appointed manager had made significant improvements to the recruitment process, ensuring that all staff are properly vetted before they start work. Medication management and administration has improved and residents are no longer at risk from poor medication practices. There is still a need for medication to be fully audited by the home. Care planning is in the process of being reviewed. The manager and the deputy manager are currently working on improving the way care plans are written. Some redecoration has been carried out since April 2006, and the new manager has eradicated the offensive odour in one of the bedrooms. The new manager has also improved residents` privacy and dignity by allocating a separate room for hairdressing.

Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. Care services are judged against outcome groups which assess how well a provider delivers outcomes for people using the service. The key inspection of this service has been carried out by using information from previous inspections, information from the providers, the residents and their relatives, as well as others who work in or visit the home. This has included a recent unannounced visit to the home and this report gives a brief overview of the service and the current judgments for each outcome group. The home has experienced some difficulties with management since the last full inspection visit in October 2005. The manager appointed in October 2005 failed to meet her management responsibilities and the Commission intends to refuse her registration, she resigned her position in May 2006. A new manager was appointed in May 2006 and has yet to apply to the Commission for registration. A total of 11 requirements 7 of which are repeated from previous inspection visits and 2 recommendations were made as a result of this visit. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection? Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 An unannounced visit was carried out in April 2006 and this showed serious failures regarding recruitment practices, staff training, induction, supervision, medication, quality monitoring and care planning. The July 2006 visit showed the newly appointed manager had made significant improvements to the recruitment process, ensuring that all staff are properly vetted before they start work. Medication management and administration has improved and residents are no longer at risk from poor medication practices. There is still a need for medication to be fully audited by the home. Care planning is in the process of being reviewed. The manager and the deputy manager are currently working on improving the way care plans are written. Some redecoration has been carried out since April 2006, and the new manager has eradicated the offensive odour in one of the bedrooms. The new manager has also improved residents’ privacy and dignity by allocating a separate room for hairdressing. What they could do better: Care plans need further improvement and must include the following: • • • • • needs that have been identified in initial assessments must be followed through in the care plan: full and clear guidelines for staff to meet residents individual needs, including social and emotional needs: more detail in the daily records about how residents have spent their day: dated nutritional assessments: accurate risk assessments identifying risks on an individual basis, particularly regarding use of bed rails. Garden space needs developing to meet the needs of the residents and the barbed wire along the top of both back walls needs to be changed to something less dangerous (to residents) and ugly. The two small patio areas at the front need tidying up. Staff must complete formal induction training and at least 50 of the care staff must achieve NVQ level 2. Quality monitoring needs to be undertaken. The poor attitude of one member of staff must be dealt with immediately to reduce the risks to the residents. Interaction and attention to residents social needs needs to improve. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 7 The physical layout of the home is confusing and disabling and needs to be adapted where possible and developed into one that assists confused and physically disabled residents to be as independent as possible. The manager needs to address the issue of the chiropodist attending to residents’ feet in the lounges in full view of everyone. The risk of cross-infection must be reduced by installing hand-washing facilities in all toilets and bathrooms. Pre-admission information must be updated and given to prospective residents. The home must make every effort to assess the needs of residents admitted for short-term care before they are admitted. Please contact the provider for advice of actions taken in response to this inspection. The report of this inspection is available from enquiries@csci.gsi.gov.uk or by contacting your local CSCI office. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 8 DETAILS OF INSPECTOR FINDINGS CONTENTS Choice of Home (Standards 1–6) Health and Personal Care (Standards 7-11) Daily Life and Social Activities (Standards 12-15) Complaints and Protection (Standards 16-18) Environment (Standards 19-26) Staffing (Standards 27-30) Management and Administration (Standards 31-38) Scoring of Outcomes Statutory Requirements Identified During the Inspection Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 Choice of Home 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 the following standard(s): 1, 3, 6 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. The outcome of this group of standards could be good if the home assessed all residents before admission with an assessment that includes reference to their social needs and if residents and relatives were provided with information in the form of an up to date service user guide to help them make their choice. Residents are not provided with enough information before admission and by not assessing the needs of the residents admitted for short-term care their health care needs may be compromised. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Care plans confirmed that the format for assessing residents before admission remains unchanged since the last full inspection (24/10/05) The format is good and covers all aspects of their physical and mental health, but omits reference to residents social needs. Residents (except those receiving short-term care) are visited before admission but the information provided about the home is only verbal. A requirement has been made regarding pre-admission information and a recommendation regarding assessments. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 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 the following standard(s): 7, 8, 9, 10 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. The outcome of this group of standards could be good if: • all care plans reflected needs identified in initial assessments • care plans gave full and clear guidelines for staff to meet residents individual needs • daily records were more detailed • medication was fully audited • nutritional assessments were dated and risk assessments accurately assessed risks on an individual basis Residents care is being compromised because not all care plans address residents care needs and use of bed rails has not been properly risk assessed. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 The random inspection visit carried out on 6th April 2006 set 3 requirements regarding care plans, falls risk assessments and for use of bed rails to be properly risk assessed & not used inappropriately. None of these have been fully met yet, but the home has seen a change of manager since the random visit which has caused a delay. The visit carried out in July 2006 showed some improvement to the way care plans were being updated and reviewed. Risk assessments for use of bed rails have not been updated and do not adequately identify or address the risks to the resident. Medication practices have improved significantly since the random medication inspection visit in April 2006. 5 requirements were made following that visit, 3 have been fully complied with and 2 partially complied with. At the July 2006 visit, one resident said the staff were good at maintaining her dignity, particularly when she was being moved in the hoist. Requirements have been repeated from the random inspection visits in April 2006 regarding care planning and medication. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 Daily Life and Social Activities The intended outcomes for Standards 12 - 15 are: 12. 13. 14. 15. Service users find the lifestyle experienced in the home matches their expectations and preferences, and satisfies their social, cultural, religious and recreational interests and needs. Service users maintain contact with family/ friends/ representatives and the local community as they wish. Service users are helped to exercise choice and control over their lives. Service users receive a wholesome appealing balanced diet in pleasing surroundings at times convenient to them. The Commission considers all of the above key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12, 13, 14, 15 Quality in this outcome area is good. The lifestyle experienced by the residents is generally positive and enjoyable, family contact is encouraged and maintained, and residents are enabled to make choices about their lifestyle. Meals are well prepared and nicely presented. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: The way activities are provided has changed little since the last full inspection in October 2005 and the random visit in April 2006. A recommendation was made following the random visit for staff to improve the way they interact with residents and not to leave it all to the activities coordinator, but because they were short staffed at the July 2006 visit, it was difficult to see if this had improved. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 The home continues to be welcoming to residents’ visitors and one resident said their relatives were made welcome and were allowed to visit at any time. Since the last full inspection in October 2005, two cooks have left and have now been replaced. Lunch was observed at the July 2006 visit which had been nicely cooked and well presented. Residents said they enjoyed it. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Complaints and Protection The intended outcomes for Standards 16 - 18 are: 16. 17. 18. Service users and their relatives and friends are confident that their complaints will be listened to, taken seriously and acted upon. Service users’ legal rights are protected. Service users are protected from abuse. The Commission considers Standards 16 and 18 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 16, 18 Quality in this outcome area is good. Residents are confident their concerns are listened to and acted upon and the home makes every effort to protect them from harm. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: The July 2006 visit showed that the home has a complaints procedure which is displayed on the back of the bedroom doors, it was slightly out of date as it contained the previous managers details. Residents and staff are aware of who to take concerns to and said they were confident these would be taken seriously and acted upon. The manager is aware of her responsibilities regarding the management of complaints and said none have been received since she took up her post in May 2006. A recommendation has been made regarding the complaints procedure. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Environment The intended outcomes for Standards 19 – 26 are: 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. Service users live in a safe, well-maintained environment. Service users have access to safe and comfortable indoor and outdoor communal facilities. Service users have sufficient and suitable lavatories and washing facilities. Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. Service users’ own rooms suit their needs. Service users live in safe, comfortable bedrooms with their own possessions around them. Service users live in safe, comfortable surroundings. The home is clean, pleasant and hygienic. The Commission considers Standards 19 and 26 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 19, 20, 26 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. The outcome of this group of standards could be good if the environment was more suited to the needs of elderly, frail, confused and disabled people and if the risk of cross infection was reduced by installing proper hand washing facilities in resident areas. The interior and exterior of the home is not ideal for the needs of older, physically disabled people as it does not create an enabling environment. However, the home is generally safe except for the lack of soap and towels in toilets and is reasonably decorated. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 Bedrooms are located over three floors and accessible (except ground floor) only via stairs or a lift. Most bedrooms are hard to find and access for residents is difficult without staff assistance although the previous manager had made some effort to improve signage. The home has varied their registration to allow the accommodation of two people with dementia, however, the confusing and inaccessible layout of the home prevents any further admissions of people with dementia. Two requirements were made following the visit in April 2006 regarding hairdressing facilities and odour. A visit to the home in June 2006 showed that the manager had made the 1st floor shower room into a hairdressing room and had eradicated the odour. The visit in July 2006 showed the home to be clean and pleasant smelling, however none of the toilets contained soap or towels. The back of the home has two concreted areas either side which are accessible via steps from one of the lounges and the kitchen but have yet to be developed into proper garden space. Requirements have been made regarding the premises, garden and hand washing facilities. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 27 – 30 are: 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users’ needs are met by the numbers and skill mix of staff. Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission consider all the above are key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 27, 28, 29, 30 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. The outcome of this group of standards could be good if at least 50 of staff had NVQ 2 (or above) and formal induction training was in place. Residents care is compromised because not all staff have received formal induction, there are not sufficient numbers of NVQ trained staff and one member of staff has a very poor attitude. However, the home does protect residents from harm by following safe recruitment practices. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: The visit of 13 July 2006 showed adequate numbers of staff on duty that were meeting the physical needs of the residents. The duty roster seen for the week of the July visit showed the home was meeting their registration conditions regarding staffing levels. Residents said they were satisfied with the care they received and did not have to wait long for staff assistance. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Observations made during the July 2006 visit showed that one member of staff did not interact well with any of the residents, some of whom indicated that they did not like her attitude towards them. She also demonstrated poor practice whilst feeding a resident. The manager said she was aware and was in the process of dealing with it. A requirement regarding induction training was made following the visit in April 2006 but this has not yet been complied with, however, new staff are being provided with a basic overview of the home and their responsibilities. The last full inspection in October 2005 showed the home was recruiting staff safely, which had changed by the visit carried out in January 2006. This showed the manager (employed following the visit in October 2005) had employed staff without following any safe vetting procedures. This had not improved at the April 2006 visit but staff files seen at the July visit showed the newly appointed manager was following safe recruitment practices. A requirement following the last full inspection was made about food hygiene training for all staff. Most have completed this and the new manager intends for the remaining 3 to undertake this training within the next 6 months. The July 2006 visit showed that 2 out of 14 care staff had NVQ 2 and 1 had NVQ 3 which is a significantly lower number qualified than at the October 2005 visit. Pre inspection information supplied in May 2005 by the previous manager confirms that 4 care staff with NVQ 2 had left the home since October 2005. A requirement has been repeated from the October 2005 and the April 2006 visits regarding training. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Management and Administration The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 38 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. Service users live in a home which is run and managed by a person who is fit to be in charge, of good character and able to discharge his or her responsibilities fully. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. The home is run in the best interests of service users. Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping, policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users and staff are promoted and protected. The Commission considers Standards 31, 33, 35 and 38 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31, 33, 35, 38 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. The outcome of this group of standards could be good if the home monitored the quality of service provided, set up and maintained systems regarding staff training, induction, supervision and care planning and properly assessed the use of equipment, particularly bed rails, for residents use. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. EVIDENCE: Visits to the home in January and April 2006 showed significant failures from the previous manager who had been appointed in October 2005 and left in May 2006. Carisbrooke House Residential Home DS0000064315.V304693.R02.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Requirements were made following the April 2006 visit regarding quality monitoring and staff appraisal and supervision. The visit in July 2006 showed that these requirements remained outstanding. Some staff files indicated that some staff supervision has been carried out. A new manager was appointed in May 2005 and has yet to apply for registration. The visit to the home in July 2006 showed the home to be well organised with staff working together as a team. The atmosphere was relaxed and calm and residents were well aware of who the manager was and knew they could go to her with their concerns. The visit in April 2006 showed residents finances were in good order and the July 2006 visit showed no changes made to the way this system is managed. Safety records showed the home is managed in a safe way except the use of bed rails (see detail recorded under Health and Personal Care). Requirements have been repeated from the April 2006 visit regarding quality monitoring, staff supervision and bed rails.
