At the time of this unannounced inspection there were 20 people in residence including one person on respite care. The home has a high occupancy rate. The home has a good record of care provision and compliance therefore in the current year will have two unannounced inspections. This is the second of those inspections. As usual there was a very relaxed atmosphere in the home and the usual welcomes for all visitors throughout the morning. Arrival at 9a.m. evidence choice of retiring times ranging from 6 a.m. to 10.30 a.m. There has been a slight increase in the overall dependency levels of residents due to deterioration in health and physical conditions. The staffing levels are adequate for the present dependency levels with additional staffing provided at peak times of care need. There were three people on duty including manager and the deputy manager came to the home to relieve the manager for the inspection purposes. This is the usual practice in this home and other examples have been seen when additional staff have arrived for exceptional circumstances e.g. hospital appointments for residents. Visitors are always welcomed into the home in a warm and friendly way, this applied to a visiting Health Care Assistant arriving to dress wounds etc. The majority of residents were seen and approximately half spoken to. Some were enjoying the morning in their bedrooms, others sitting in the different lounge areas.

Plans were of good standard and based upon assessed need, they were reviewed regularly and where significant changes required in providing care, plans were re-written. In relation to recently admitted resident (three days previously) a Care Management assessment had been obtained, the homes own assessment carried out and documented all prior to admission. Documentation in care plans was comprehensive, adequate and contained all information required to provide care. There is a summary of care requirements with detailed information/instructions to meet needs. The home has recently introduced a new key worker system – allocation of two care staff as key workers to each resident involving where possible day and night staff to provide a more comprehensive cover of needs and progress. This has focussed further on the need to carefully assess and record progress and more readily ensures staff record and communicate changed needs. Key workers are responsible for monthly reviews - jointly and with residents wherever possible.

Six staff had attended funeral and family and friends returned to Davlyn House following the funeral for tea. This resident had been cared for over a long period in the home and her quality of life vastly improved due to the tenacity of staff.
