What the care home does well

All the residents said that they are well looked after and that they can do what they want. They said that there are no restrictions which stop them living independently within their own limitations. Residents were observed moving around the home quite freely and where assistance was required, this was provided by willing and cheerful staff. At the start of the inspection, the inspector found that most of the residents were in the 2 lounges and a few were sat in the porch. They were cheerful and chatty. They said that they are very well cared by the staff who are very kind and helpful. A written pre admission assessment is done to ensure that residents admitted to the home are provided with care to meet all their needs. New residents and/or their families are encouraged to visit the home before admission. This helps with receiving information and asking appropriate questions about the service. The staff have an awareness of equality and diversity and said that they treat everyone as equals and respect people`s different ways and habits. The staff were observed to be polite and respectful when talking and caring for the residents.

Fernbank Retirement Home DS0000009699.V339422.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. Under IBL (Inspecting for Better Lives) Fernbank was assessed as requiring a statutory key visit (inspection) between April 2007 and March 2008. An unannounced inspection was carried out on 22nd August 2007. The inspection lasted a total of 5.5 hours. The inspection was carried out against the National Minimum Standards for Older People. The inspection despite being an unannounced one was carried out in a friendly atmosphere and with the full cooperation of the manager, the staff and the residents. During the inspection, some records were looked at and several residents and staff were spoken to. The residents were very positive about the care they receive and the way the staff treat them. Every year we asked the registered person to supply us with written information about the quality of the service they provide and to make an assessment of the quality of their service. A questionnaire called the AQAA (Annual Quality Assurance Assessment) is sent for the manager of the home to complete and return. We use this information, in part, to focus our inspection activity. The completed questionnaire gave information about several areas such as staffing, checks that the home has made about the safety and maintenance of the building, information about residents and other useful information. The AQAA also requests information about good practices and developments. Survey forms were also sent to residents, relatives and other professionals like GP’s. By the time the inspection took place, 4 residents had returned their surveys and had made no adverse comments to make. One relative made some negative comments, but the manager was able to give satisfactory explanation to the concerns raised. There were 11 residents living at the home at the time of the inspection and there was an adequate number of care staff on duty. The staff were observed to be polite and attentive when talking and dealing with the residents.
