What the care home does well

Appropriate care and support was provided effectively to ensure the residents` needs were met and there was a consistent approach to the learning of new skills. The residents pursued a wide range of recreational and vocational activities both inside and outside the home. This enabled the residents to participate in the life of the home and gave them the opportunity to meet other people. The residents had access to an effective complaints procedure, which ensured they were listened to and their concerns were acted upon. Policies and procedures were also in place to ensure the residents were protected from harm. The residents were provided with a well-maintained and safe home, which was decorated and furnished to a good standard. The residents were able to personalise their rooms and create an individual space, in line with their choice and interests. Relationships in the home were positive and the atmosphere was open and friendly. The residents got on well with the manager and staff, who they described "approachable", "supportive" and "very nice". Systems were in place to consult both the residents and the staff and a means had been established to monitor the quality of the service.

What has improved since the last inspection?

A new care planning format had been introduced which was person centred. This ensured the residents were aware of the contents of their plan and they were fully involved in the overall care planning process. The residents stored their care plans in their rooms, to enable them to have access at any time. Since the last inspection, a new leather suite had been purchased for the living room. All the residents spoken to thought this seating was comfortable. Appropriate records and documentation had been collated relating to the recruitment of new staff, which meant that all staff were thoroughly checked before working with the residents. The manager had updated and issued a new job description for the care and support workers, which clearly set out their roles and responsibilities.

What the care home could do better:

The residents must be provided with appropriate written information and a contract, which reflect the current arrangements in the home. This is to ensure the residents are fully aware of the terms and conditions of residence and they have up to date details about the services and facilities available in the home. An application must be made to register a manager for the home. This is to ensure a specific person, deemed appropriate by the Commission, takes a specific legal responsibility for the day to day management of the home.

Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. A key unannounced inspection, which included a visit to the home, was conducted at 3 Edgar Street on 7th February 2007. During the visit the inspector looked at written information including policies, procedures and records, spoke to the residents, manager and staff and conducted a partial tour of the premises. As part of the inspection process the inspector used “case tracking” as a means of gathering information. This process allows to the inspector to focus on a small group of people living at the home. Prior to the inspection comment cards were sent to the home. 6 completed cards were received from the residents and 6 completed cards were received from the residents’ relatives/visitors. The manager also completed a questionnaire about the home, which provided useful information for the inspection. At the time of the visit there were 6 residents accommodated in the home. What the service does well: Appropriate care and support was provided effectively to ensure the residents’ needs were met and there was a consistent approach to the learning of new skills. The residents pursued a wide range of recreational and vocational activities both inside and outside the home. This enabled the residents to participate in the life of the home and gave them the opportunity to meet other people. The residents had access to an effective complaints procedure, which ensured they were listened to and their concerns were acted upon. Policies and procedures were also in place to ensure the residents were protected from harm. The residents were provided with a well-maintained and safe home, which was decorated and furnished to a good standard. The residents were able to personalise their rooms and create an individual space, in line with their choice and interests. Relationships in the home were positive and the atmosphere was open and friendly. The residents got on well with the manager and staff, who they described “approachable”, “supportive” and “very nice”. Systems were in place to consult both the residents and the staff and a means had been established to monitor the quality of the service.

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 and 5 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Not all the written documentation provided for residents was complete and up to date. The residents’ needs were properly assessed and reviewed. EVIDENCE: Written information was available for residents in the form of a service users guide and statement of purpose. The residents had contributed to the service users guide to inform any prospective residents about life in the home. However, the paperwork seen was presented as one document, rather than two distinct documents and had not been updated in line with the change of manager. All the residents had lived in the home for sometime and there had been no new admissions since the last inspection. However, it was clear from viewing the personal files, that the residents’ needs had been assessed prior to admission by a social worker and the previous registered person. At the time of the inspection the current manager was in the process of reviewing the Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 assessment documentation. All assessments were completed in consultation with the resident and their next of kin, as appropriate. The residents had been supplied with a contract with the previous registered provider, however, new contracts had not been issued by the current registered person. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Individual Needs and Choices The intended outcomes for Standards 6 – 10 are: 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Service users know their assessed and changing needs and personal goals are reflected in their individual Plan. Service users make decisions about their lives with assistance as needed. Service users are consulted on, and participate in, all aspects of life in the home. Service users are supported to take risks as part of an independent lifestyle. Service users know that information about them is handled appropriately, and that their confidences are kept. The Commission considers Standards 6, 7 and 9 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6, 7, 8 and 9 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The residents’ individual needs were addressed and they were supported to participate in all aspects of life in the home. EVIDENCE: Each resident had a plan of care based on their assessment of needs. The plans set out in detail the action needed to be taken by staff to ensure all needs were met. The care plans were supported by daily records of care and support. Any changes, issues or concerns were recorded along with appointments, events and activities the residents had been involved with. Since the last inspection, the care plans had been given to the residents to store in their bedroom. It was evident the residents were fully consulted about the development of their plans and they were aware of what was written in their plans. During the visit, two residents carefully explained the contents of their plan to the inspector. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Since the last inspection, a new care planning format had been introduced, which was person centred and clearly identified the responsibilities of the residents and the staff. The care plans were reviewed on a monthly basis with the residents. It was practice of the home to support responsible risk taking and policies and procedures supported this approach. Detailed risk assessments and management strategies covered activities indoors and in the wider community and were incorporated in the residents’ plans. During conversations with the residents, it was evident, they were consulted informally and formally and they were able to fully participate in the life of the home. Residents meetings were held in the home and it was evident a wide variety of topics were discussed. The residents fully contributed to the agenda and discussions. The residents were supported with their financial affairs and detailed written records were maintained of all transactions. A random check of money deposited with the home for safe keeping corresponded accurately to the records. One of the residents explained how she was assisted with budgeting her money and said she was happy with the support she received. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Lifestyle The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17.

Where necessary tasks had been broken down and achievable goals had been set. The residents had good access to a range of recreational and vocational activities. Activities outside the home included, bowling, swimming, shopping and going out to restaurants. The residents also attended the Hyndburn Neighbourhood Project, which was designed for all members of the local community. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 The residents pursued a number of occupational and educational activities. As such, one resident worked part time at a local school, three residents worked in a local charity shop, two people worked in a voluntary capacity in a home for older people and one person attended a college course. The staffing levels were flexible to accommodate the residents’ activities and appointments. The residents were supported to maintain relationships with their families and were able to use the telephone, to speak to their relatives. All the relatives/visitors who completed a comment card indicated they were satisfied with the overall care provided in the home. The residents had unrestricted access to the homes and grounds. The residents were also able to use their room at any time should they wish to spend time in private. All the residents had been issued keys for their bedroom doors and residents were seen using their keys during the visit. The meals were planned on an individual basis. The residents were allocated an amount of money each week, to enable them to purchase food of their choice. Separate storage facilities were available for each resident at the home. The residents spoken to were happy with the arrangements made for meals and felt they received good support from the staff. An individual record of meals served was maintained, which demonstrated the residents were supported and encouraged to have a healthy nutritious diet. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Personal and Healthcare Support The intended outcomes for Standards 18 - 21 are: 18. 19. 20. 21. Service users receive personal support in the way they prefer and require. Service users’ physical and emotional health needs are met.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18, 19 and 20 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The health and personal care received by the residents was based on their individual needs. EVIDENCE: The residents’ individual plans set out any personal support each resident required and provided details of how this support was to be delivered. All personal care was provided in the privacy of the residents’ own bedroom or bathroom. The staff told the inspector that the routines were flexible and were primarily designed to meet the needs of the residents and their plans for the day. The residents spoken to said their rights to privacy and dignity were closely respected. The manager and the staff ensured consistency and continuity for the residents by the use of a keyworker system. Healthcare needs were appropriately assessed and were included in the care plan. In addition to the care plan the residents had a health action plan, which Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 detailed their medical history and current health. There was evidence to indicate the residents had access to NHS services and the advice of specialist services had been sought as necessary, for example the speech therapist. All the residents were registered with a local General Practitioner. There was a set of policies and procedures in respect of medication and appropriate records were maintained of receipt, administration and disposal of medicines. Two residents were self administering their medication within a risk management framework. All records seen relating to medication were complete and up to date. Written protocols were also in place for the administration of medication prescribed “as necessary”. One person had completed accredited medication training and plans were in place for the other members of the staff team to complete this course. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Concerns, Complaints and Protection 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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 22 and 23 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The residents were able to express their concerns and had access to an effective complaints procedure. Written procedures and practice protected the residents from abuse and neglect. EVIDENCE: Both informal and formal arrangements were in place for the residents to express their views and concerns by means of the residents’ meetings, satisfaction questionnaires and everyday conversation. The complaints procedure was included in the service users guide and was verbally explained to residents, as necessary. All the residents spoken to were aware of the complaints procedure and felt confident their views would be listened to. The home had received one complaint since the last inspection, this had been investigated by the manager and the outcome fed back to the complainant. Three relatives/visitors who completed comment cards were not aware of the home’s complaints procedure. The manager therefore offered to send a copy of the procedure to all the residents’ relatives. A copy of “No Secrets in Lancashire” (The Joint Strategy for the Protection of Vulnerable Adults) was available, along with a specific procedure setting out the required response in the event of any allegations or suspicion of abuse. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 The staff were aware of the procedure and had received appropriate training. The staff also had access to a whistle blowing procedure.

Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. The home is clean and hygienic. The Commission considers Standards 24, and 30 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 24, 25, 26 and 30 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The residents were provided with a clean, safe and well-maintained home.

At the time of the inspection, the premises were well maintained, comfortable, clean and free from offensive odours. There were established systems in place for maintenance of the property and the renewal of fabric and decoration. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 The bedrooms had been decorated and furnished according to personal taste. Residents were able to bring in and purchase their own belongings, many of which were displayed in their rooms. All the residents spoken to liked their bedrooms, one person said “my room is really good” and another person said “I like having my own things round”. The residents were able to use their rooms at any time, should they wish to spend time pursuing their own activities.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31, 32, 33, 34, 35 and 36 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The recruitment and selection procedures were thorough and ensured the protection of the residents. Staff were well trained and skilled to meet the needs of the residents. EVIDENCE: Since the last inspection, staff had been issued with a revised job description, which set out their roles and responsibilities and a copy of the Code of Conduct set by the General Social Care Council. Staffing levels were in line with the needs of the residents and were regularly reviewed in line with any planned activities. Five members of staff had been recruited to the home since the last inspection. The personal files of three staff were inspected. The recruitment process included completion of an application form, face-to-face interview, obtaining two written references and a POVA first and CRB check. The personal files of three staff were inspected. These demonstrated that the procedures had been Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 followed and all relevant details had been obtained. It was noted that the residents had been involved in the recruitment process. The new staff had received in house induction training, which the manager confirmed covered the Skills for Care standards. Each member of staff had a training profile and an overall training and development plan was seen for the staff team as a whole. According to the pre inspection questionnaire four members of staff had achieved NVQ level 2, which equated to 66 of the staff group. Consultation with staff was ongoing and handover arrangements were in place. Staff meetings were held on a regular basis.

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 37, 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 37, 38, 39 40, 41 and 42 Quality in this outcome area is good.

The management approach promoted positive relationships between the staff and the residents and the overall atmosphere was open and friendly. Systems were in place to monitor and develop the quality of the service and the health and safety of the residents was promoted and protected. EVIDENCE: Since the last inspection the registered manager had resigned and a new manager had been recruited to the home. The new manager had completed the Registered Manager’s Award and had several years experience working in various residential settings. At the time of the visit the manager had not applied for registration with the Commission. Edgar Street Residential Care Home DS0000062212.V326102.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 23 The overall management approach was consultative and there were established systems in place to consult staff and residents on an ongoing basis. Relationships within the home were positive and staff spoke to and about the residents with respect. The manager had continued to develop the quality assurance process, to ensure there were systems in place to monitor the service. In addition a report was made every month by the registered provider. Whilst satisfaction questionnaires had been distributed to the residents, these had not been distributed to the residents’ relatives. The results of the survey had been collated and feedback had been given to the residents. An annual development plan based on the outcomes of the monitoring processes had been produced in 2006, which identified the planned developments for the service. All regulatory records seen were complete and up to date and the manager had reviewed the policies and procedures. There were plans in place for the new staff to complete the relevant health and safety training. The gas and electrical systems were serviced at regular intervals. To minimise the risk of scalding there was a central valve fitted to the hot water system. The fire log demonstrated staff and residents had participated in regular fire drills and the fire system was tested on a regular basis. Appropriate arrangements were in place to record any accidents or incidents in the home. The manager had formulated risk assessments for all safe working practice topics.
