The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 5 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1,2,3,4,5 Quality in this outcome area is good. The judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Prospective service users benefit from a range of information to enable them to make an informed choice in relation to where they want to live. Service users are given the opportunity to test drive the home prior to deciding if they wish to move in which means service users can be confident they will make the right decision in relation to whether they wish to move into the home. Service users can feel confident that their needs are understood and can be met by well – informed staff that know how to support them which means their individual needs can be met. EVIDENCE: There have been no new admissions to the home since the last inspection. The home has a service user guide which contains the Purpose and Function document both of which the manager is in the process of updating. The areas covered in the service user guide include the arrangements for service users to continue or to undertake their chosen activities, the arrangements and times during which service users relatives can visit. The financial arrangements in relation to fees which specify what is included within the agreed fees and those services that are not covered for example, visiting the hairdresser. The document also provides information in relation to meals, medication, leaving or temporary vacating the premises, and clear information in relation to the complaints procedure. These documents ensure that service users are provided
Glasson House DS0000010444.V307749.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 with adequate information in relation to the service, which enables them to make an informed decision as to whether the service can meet their individual needs. Four service user files were inspected. The assessment process was very detailed and for one identified service user this took a number of months to complete over a period of six visits, which included visits to the service users previous address and overnight stays. The manager and staff team had acuminated detailed information about the individuals past history, current needs including the views of the service user in relation to what they regarded to be their strengths and weaknesses, this information included opinions of relatives and relevant professionals. Service users can feel confident that staff will have a good understanding of their individual needs, which will ensure that individual service users needs can be met as a holistic approach in relation to service users needs is provided. Four service user files were inspected and one did not contain the required service user contract, which sets out the terms and conditions on which the accommodation is provided which means that this particular service user does not have clear expectations in relation to the service they can expect and what their fees cover which means their individual rights are not fully protected. A requirement has been made in relation to this. A minor variation to the conditions of registration has been applied for via the commission and been agreed which means the home is now operating within its conditions of registration in the case of the particular service user who is over sixty-five years of age. The inspector asked one service user if they had enough information when they moved into the home. The service user said, “it was good and they felt very supported by the staff” Glasson House DS0000010444.V307749.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Individual Needs and Choices
