This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The inspection was announced and took place over one long day. The inspector met and spoke to all the residents. A partial inspection of the physical standards was undertaken. Residents care plans and risk assessments were inspected. Staff records were examined, and a number of Health and Safety records were inspected. The inspector had the opportunity to talk to the acting manager and four care staff. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection?
The home had introduced a system for making sure that risk assessments are kept up to date. New medication procedures had been put in place to inform staff of the required practice for the management of recording medication on the record chart and the safe storage and administration of prescribed creams. So that residents are protected by safe procedures. New procedures had been introduced regarding good practice for the handling of resident’s money so that the provider can demonstrate that residents finances are well handled and protected from potential financial abuse. Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 6 What they could do better:
The provider was in the process of having residents needs reassessed and making sure that residents receive the right support. Staffing levels must be increased. The home must improve the care plans that they have on residents. These tell the staff how to support each resident. They must be clear about what help and support each residents needs and what the staff must do to help the resident. These must be kept up to date. Some of the risk assessments required more information so that they are really clear about what the risk is and the support required from staff. It was really positive that the acting manager was keen with the support from the staff team to develop the complaints procedure so that they can demonstrate that all residents are listened to and any concerns are recorded and dealt with. Progress will be monitored at the next inspection. Staff must have training in adult protection, person centred planning, epilepsy and anti discriminatory practice so that they have the up to date skills and knowledge to support residents and meet their needs. The kitchens in both flats required replacement. Cupboards are worn and damaged and some of the tiles are cracked. The current facilities could pose a health hazard for residents. The garden had been partly developed there was a decking area that leads down to a grass area which was difficult for the residents who use a wheelchair to access. It is strongly advised that the garden is developed in accordance with the views and wishes of the residents so that they can fully enjoy and access all the areas of their home. It was recommended that the provider looks at the systems in place for the recording of when a resident has an accident. It was recommended that entries are made into a binded accident book, which will prevent recordings from being misplaced and ensure that only the information required is recorded.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 6, 9 Further development of residents care plans was required so that an up to date plan of care is in place so that resident’s needs, aspirations and goals are clearly documented and monitored. Some further development of risk assessments was required so that the home can evidence that the risk residents face are well managed. EVIDENCE: Two care plans were assessed. There was a care plan structure in place and a lot of information was on file. The care plans required further development and a review of the structure and layout. Information and guidance added to the care plan must be dated and signed. The care plan must be kept under review with evidence that the individual plan is reviewed at least every six months. A number of risk assessments were on file for each resident and there was evidence that these had been reviewed. Some of the risk assessments required further development so that they are clear and specific about what the risks are to the individual resident and the action required by staff to reduce the risk. For instance risk assessments regarding nighttime support must be specific about how night staff make their checks, are they audible checks from

EVIDENCE: Four of the residents attend a structured day centre and two residents are supported by the staff team to access suitable day time opportunities. One of the residents went through their weekly activity plan and explained the different college courses that they had done and the new courses that they hope to start in September, at a new college. They also talked about the different hobbies that they enjoy doing at home. At the time of the inspection Day Centres were closed for the summer break. Two residents had been out to Chelmsley Wood and in the evening two residents were going swimming. The home has its own vehicle and residents contribute towards the running costs based on their use of the transport. If there are no drivers on duty alternative transport options are used including ring and ride and taxies. Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 13 Three of the residents had recently been on holiday two went to Blackpool and one went to Breen with a resident who lives at 225 Coleshill Road. There were plans in place for the other residents to go on holiday. The acting manager said that some of the residents prefer a couple of short breaks rather than a week’s break. Staff stated and records indicated that where appropriate residents are supported to maintain contact with their relatives. Care plans had details of relative and friend contact arrangements. The visitor’s policy was on display in the entrance hall, and indicated that visitors will be made welcome to the home. Staff spoken to demonstrated a good understanding of the individual needs of residents and how residents communicate their different needs. Residents on flat one were observed undertaking a number of household tasks including helping out with food preparation, taking rubbish out to the bins, taking the washing off the line and putting it in the tumble drier and making drinks and snacks. Two of the resident’s spoken to said that they are enabled and supported to take part in a range of household tasks. On flat two, residents are less actively involved in household tasks staff said that partly this is because of their needs. Staff said they would sometimes take part with prompt and support from staff or sometimes the level of in put involves the resident just observing staff undertaking the tasks and staff verbally interacting with them. Two of the residents spoken to said that they could access all areas of their flat and the garden. They confirmed that they have a key to their door and staff will knock their bedroom door before entering. Menus were on display and indicated that a balanced and nutritional diet is offered to residents. Adequate food stocks were available in the home and food was stored and labelled with purchased and opening dates as required. Mealtime guidelines had been implemented for one resident as required at the previous inspection. These required some minor amendments so that the guidelines accurately reflect their needs and the supported required by staff. One residents weight was being monitored however, records of their weight was infrequent and the acting manager said the scales the home have are not accurate. The home must explore other options for monitoring the residents weight or provide scales that are adequate.

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. The ageing, illness and death of a service user are handled with respect and as the individual would wish. The Commission considers Standards 18, 19, and 20 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 18, 19, 20 Residents receive a good level of support with their personal care and healthcare needs. Some improvements to the recording of residents’ healthcare was required so that there is documented evidence that their health care needs have been met. EVIDENCE: Residents were well dressed and there was good attention to people’s personal care. The care plans required some further development regarding how to support residents with their personal care needs. Manual handling assessments were in the process of being completed. Risk assessments were in place for residents who require staff support to transfer from a wheelchair to the bath. Both flats had well equipped bathrooms and the service of equipment had been undertaken as required. There was a core team of staff who knew residents needs well and there was a keywoker system in place. Residents care plans had “OK Health Checks” which are a health action plan format. These required further updating and development so that the format is fully used and the action plan section completed and evidence that resident’s health care needs are fully monitored. Details of outcomes of appointments were documented. One resident bed requirements must be reviewed, in order to alleviate breathing difficulties pillows are placed under the mattress. It was advised that
Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 15 an appointment was made with the relevant professionals so that their needs could be fully assessed. CSCI must be informed of the outcome and any recommendations such as providing the relevant support equipment. The storage and administration of medication was generally satisfactory. The protocol/ guidelines in place for the management of one residents epilepsy required signing by the G.P and or consultant. Training for staff in epilepsy was required this must include an overview of epilepsy and training specific to the management of one person’s epilepsy. The risk assessment for one resident with epilepsy required some additional information including the required supervision during and after a seizure. The G.P or consultant must sign the epilepsy guidelines. The operations manger following consultation with CSCI pharmacy inspector had implemented procedures for the storage of “prescribed creams” and “writing on Medication Record Charts”. The Organisation has trained a staff member who is approved to train staff to the required accredited level in the “safe administration of medication”. It was agreed that this would be discussed with the CSCI pharmacy inspector for approval. The acting manager agreed to continue to review the location of the medication cabinet. Whilst accepting the limitations and potential problems with its current location in the laundry area there were limited alternatives. The temperature of the cupboard was being monitored so that it does not go above 25 degrees.

The intended outcomes for Standards 22 – 23 are: 22. 23. Service users feel their views are listened to and acted on. Service users are protected from abuse, neglect and self-harm. The Commission considers Standards 22, and 23 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 22, 23 The complaints procedure was in the process of being made available in a format more suitable for residents. The adult protection policy was comprehensive. Staff training must be provided in adult protection matters so that residents are supported by an informed staff team who can safeguard residents from abuse. EVIDENCE: Only two of the six residents would be able to verbally raise a concern or a complaint all other residents are reliant on the staff team to promote and protect their well being. There was a complaint policy and procedure in place. The provider had received no complaints. The acting manager had just received a revised procedure, which included an audio and videotape. Staff training is to be provided on the new package. The acting manager demonstrated a real commitment to promoting staff awareness of really listening to residents views and developing an open culture and supporting residents who are not able to verbally raise their concerns. The organisations Adult Protection Procedure was assessed and the appendix (iii) had been completed so that it contained a flow chart and boxes for relevant contact details in the event of a protection matter being identified in the home. There was a copy of the Birmingham Multi-agency Guidelines available to compliment the organisations own policy and procedure. The operations manager stated that Adult Protection training would be implemented into the induction training. The organisation will need to explore how up dates and refresher training will be provided for all staff. Staff spoken to demonstrated an understanding of what to do in the event of an Adult Protection matter arising in the home.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 24, 30 Residents live in a homely, comfortable and safe environment. EVIDENCE: Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 19 227 Coleshill Road consists of two, three bedded flats. The home was a purpose built property and therefore meets all the required standards. The two flats were generally well maintained, accessible and safe and free from offensive odours. They meet the current needs of residents. A previously raised concern was access to the laundry for residents; the inspector was informed that the layout of the laundry was under review. The kitchens in both flats required replacement cupboards are worn and damaged and some of the tiles are cracked. The current facilities could pose a health hazard for residents. CSCI must be informed of timescales for this work to be actioned. The garden had been partly developed there was a decking area that leads down to a grass area which was difficult for the residents who use a wheelchair to access. Residents have put some plans together with the help from staff of how they would like the garden to be developed. Two of the residents said they enjoyed spending time in the garden. It is strongly advised that the garden is developed in accordance with the views and wishes of the residents so that they can fully enjoy and access all the areas of their home. Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 20 Staffing
The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. Service users benefit from clarity of staff roles and responsibilities. Service users are supported by competent and qualified staff. Service users are supported by an effective staff team. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Service users’ individual and joint needs are met by appropriately trained staff. Service users benefit from well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 35 the key standard to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 32, 33, 34, 35, 36 Staffing levels must be reviewed so that the home has an effective staff team, in sufficient numbers to meet resident’s needs. Staff must receive regular supervision so that residents are supported by a well-supervised staff team. EVIDENCE: Staffing levels were three staff on duty at core times when all the residents are at home. This allows one staff in each flat and one staff member going between the two flats to support. The rota indicated that there was some flexibility with the rota and at time four staff are on duty to support evening activities. At night there is one person doing a waking night shift and one person on call on a sleeping in shift between the two registered homes 225 and 227. One week the person is based in 225 and the following week they are based in 227. The previous report required that a review of staffing levels must take place as two staff was required at core times on each flat. The Operations Manager stated that she was in the process of requesting reassessments of all residents with the relevant placing authorities, as part of the review process. CSCI must be informed of the outcome.
Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 21 There was a core team of staff who have worked at the home for a long time and more recent appointments have meant that the home has benefited from a good range of staff with varying experiences and both male and female support workers. Some staff were due to move on to positions for personal development reasons which will mean that the home will have some vacant positions. The acting manager said staff increasing their hours will cover some hours and the other vacant posts will be recruited to in the forthcoming months. Agency staff will cover any shortfalls. The acting manager said that regular agency staff are used and that they were in receipt of profiles, detailing their experience and CRB details. The staff training records were examined and indicated that mandatory training is provided to all staff. Some updates and refreshers were required and these were said to be in hand and are scheduled to take place over the forthcoming months, so that staff have the up to date knowledge and skills to support resident’s needs. Training was required on epilepsy, adult Protection, person centred planning disability equality training and anti-racism. Two staff files were examined and these contained the required information including application form, references, CRB check and proof of identity. Supervision records were assessed and indicated infrequent supervision over the last twelve. Regular supervision must be provided for all staff at least six per year with records kept. It was discussed with the acting manager how personal information that staff may share in supervision could be recorded and filed.

The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. Service users are confident their views underpin all self-monitoring, review and development by the home. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s policies and procedures. 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 are promoted and protected. Service users benefit from competent and accountable management of the service. The Commission considers Standards 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 37, 42 Health and Safety matters were well managed. Staffing levels must be reviewed so that the well being of residents is fully promoted and protected. EVIDENCE: The registered manager resigned in October 2004. There have been temporary management arrangements in place. The assistant manager has acted up in the manager position for a protracted period. For several months he was the only manager. Since March 2005 a support worker had been acting assistant manager. A new manager had recently been appointed and it is anticipated that they will take up post in September 2005. An application to register the manager must be forwarded to CSCI. It was proposed by the organisation and CSCI have agreed that the manager will be the registered person for 225 and 227 Coleshill Road. Throughout the inspection process the acting manager presented as open, positive and inclusive.
Coleshill Road, 227 E54 S16729 Coleshill Road 227 V239151 160805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.40 Page 23 A number of required records were examined including risk assessments for the environment, COSHH, fire records, and water checks and were all found to be in good order. Staffing levels required review as raised in previous reports and in section 33 of this report. Risk assessments regarding the care and support of residents required some further development as raised under standard 9 of the report. The accident procedure had been revised since the previous inspection to incorporate the date protection requirements. The home was still using loose sheets for the recording of any accidents or incidents. The recording sheet is lengthy and the use of loose sheets is problematic as there is the potential for information to become misplaced. It was strongly advised that this system is revised and consideration given to the using of a bounded accident book with numbered pages.
