This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. This unannounced inspection took place on the 28 June 2007 and included a site visit. The inspection was carried out from 09.15 am until 15.45 pm. The inspector looked at records the home holds on residents (care plans) and other records it needs to keep to ensure that the home is being run properly. The inspector looked around the building at first with the home’s manager and also unaccompanied. To find out more information about the home the inspector spoke with number of residents, staff and visitors. Comment cards were sent to the home prior to the inspection asking people who use the services at those who visit the home what they thought about the care provided. Ten relatives returned comments cards, one from the palliative care nurse specialist and one from a doctor; there were no returned comment cards from residents. One relative said,” During my fathers time at the care home we have always found the staff to be dedicated, friendly and very caring. We appreciate them very much for all they have done and continue to do”. One relative made comment that staff are not always visible. This was discussed with the manager who confirmed that sufficient numbers of staff are on duty at all times, but staff may be seeing to a resident in their room so may not always be in view. Another relative said, “Staff always ‘go the extra mile’, I have no complaints in a long stay for my mother who I’m sure would be less contented elsewhere”. Other comment cards indicted overall satisfaction with the care provided. The doctor has not added any additional comments but is satisfied with the care his/her patients receive. A comment from the palliative nurse is with regard to communication and that this was difficult at times. This was discussed with the manager who confirmed that the comment was regarding overseas staff and their command of English also that she was not always informed of a change in patient’s condition. The manager said there had been no complaints made to the home. complaints had been to the CSCI since the last inspection. No What the service does well:
Carrington Court is a well-managed and well-run home ensuring high standard of care for the people living there. The manager and staff ensure that residents have everything they need to live a comfortable life. Carrington Court DS0000005675.V320011.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 The premises are clean and safe and the standard of the accommodation is good, there are effective systems for keeping the home maintained to a good standard. There have been few staff changes so residents are looked after by people they know and trust. Staff are well trained and show commitment towards giving good care to residents. Records are kept to a good standard and the manager is well supported by the excellent skills of the home’s administrator. There are additionally checks and procedures in place to ensure that everything is properly accounted for. The home does exceptionally well in seeking the views of residents, relatives, staff and others who visit the home so that the service can further improved. What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better:

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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1 and 3 were assessed. Standard 6 does not apply, as the home does not provide intermediate care. Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service.

A full pre admission assessment is carried out prior to admission to ensure the home can meet the needs of the individual. EVIDENCE: The home has a statement of purpose and a service users guide. This is available to all prospective residents and to residents all ready living at the home.
