JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6, 8, 9, 10 Residents can expect that their assessed and changing needs and personal goals are reflected in their individual plan and that they are supported to take risks as part of an independent lifestyle.

Care plans identify the resident’s goals, intervention required for each activity and are evaluated regularly as residents progress and their needs change. Evaluation records for each activity are signed and dated by staff members, clearly identifying how activities were progressing and adapting. One resident record viewed evidenced that the resident has been involved in their care planning, they have signed evaluation records. Residents records viewed identify where specialist help has been required, such as with health issues, and when this has been accessed.

Records evidence that residents are provided with a monthly key worker meeting with their key worker where they have discussed and evaluated the care they receive and their activities programme. Residents attend monthly house meetings, where they can discuss aspects of the home and the care they receive.

Records viewed also show care that staff should take with ensuring residents safety, and well being, for example when using the toilet and bathing. Risk assessments were also in place for aspects of the environment residents live in. The previous inspection report identified that risk assessments should be in place for residents who horse ride; these risk assessments are now completed and included in resident’s records. Records viewed include the information staff may require when reporting residents unexplained absences from the home. One staff member was spoken to about actions taken if a resident wished to undertake an activity, the staff member confirmed that the activity would be risk assessed, ensuring the residents safety and support would be provided to the resident in undertaking their chosen activity if it was safe to do so. Resident’s records were observed to be stored securely within each home. When the inspector had viewed records, they were promptly stored away in a locked cabinet by staff members.
