This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. This key inspection took place March 13th 2007. The inspection commenced at 9.30am and was completed at 3.10pm. The manager Shelia Pickering was available to assist the inspector. Mrs Pickering was open to the inspection process and helpful through the day. Due to the complex mental health needs of the service users, gaining their views and opinions of the service provided was very limited. Therefore much of the inspection was based on observation. During the visit, the inspector observed staff interacting and caring for service users, toured the building, visiting many bedrooms. A number of records were reviewed such as care plans, medications and some health and safety records. All requirement set at the previous inspection had been met. Two requirements were made following this inspection and two good practice recommendations. The judgments contained in this report have been made from evidence gathered during the inspection, which included a visit to the service. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better:
The flooring in three bedrooms should be replaced to reduce the odours in these particular bedrooms, which has only occurred due to continence issues of the service users. The armchairs should be replaced, which are stained and the
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 raised toilets seats replaced. A policy and procedure should be put in place to address the issue of equipment being used across the site. Please contact the provider for advice of actions taken in response to this inspection. The report of this inspection is available from enquiries@csci.gsi.gov.uk or by contacting your local CSCI office.

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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 2 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. All service users are fully assessed by the manager prior to the admissiontaking place. EVIDENCE: All prospective service users are assessed by the registered manager, Shelia Pickering, prior to admission to the Old Vicarage to ensure that through the assessment process, the home is able to meet the nursing and social care needs of the service user. Due to the very often, complex mental health needs of the perspective service users, Mrs Pickering will always visit with service users wherever they are based in the country to ensure that the assessment is fully conducted. Service users may also be transferred following rehabilitation from another unit on site; again Mrs Pickering will conduct an assessment. Information will also be gathered from other health care professionals where possible to support the assessment. Two assessments were seen both of which were detailed and provided a clear picture of the service users needs. A copy of the assessment is kept on the service users records and used towards implementing a care plan. Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 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, and 9 Quality in this outcome area is excellent. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. All service users are provided with comprehensive care plans, which are reviewed monthly. The staff support service users in making decisions where possible. The manager and staff have established an excellent balance between independence and care needs. EVIDENCE: The care records of four service users were seen. The care records were comprehensive and provided clear instructions to the staff on how to meet all areas of care required by the individual service user. Due to the mental health needs of the service users group, behavioural issues had been well addressed. An integrated care pathway, which is a 12-week assessment tool, was in use for a service user with difficulties, used to provide staff and therapist of triggers that can create behavioural problems. The care records were reviewed monthly or when care needs change. All service users have a primary nurse who is responsible for the care records.
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Due to the high and complex mental health needs of the service user group decision-making could be very limited. However through observation of the staffs’ interaction with service users, it was evident how well the staff supported and encouraged service users to make decisions about their daily life within the home such as what they would like to eat, what activities they may wish to participate in and how they spent their day. The staff also were able to advise and guide service users when they needed support with a decision, which may of not have been be quite appropriate without being dictatorial. The manager and staff have established an excellent balance between independence and care needs. Following detailed risk assessments, service users are encouraged to takes walks independently around the campus, one service user is responsible for delivering all the post to the six units on site, other’s use the lift independently even though they may have some mobility problems to access their bedrooms when they wish. Given the complex mental heath needs of the service users these steps of independence are good. Two service users have recently been rehabilitated and discharged from the Old Vicarage, as this level of care was no longer required. Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Lifestyle
The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. Service users have opportunities for personal development. Service users are able to take part in age, peer and culturally appropriate activities. Service users are part of the local community. Service users engage in appropriate leisure activities. Service users have appropriate personal, family and sexual relationships. Service users’ rights are respected and responsibilities recognised in their daily lives. Service users are offered a healthy diet and enjoy their meals and mealtimes. The Commission considers Standards 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 the key standards to be inspected.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Service users are provided with appropriate activities to meet their social needs. Service users are encouraged to maintain links with family and friends. The staff respect the rights of the service users. New menus are in place, providing a range of nutritional meals. EVIDENCE: During the morning of the inspection, an Occupational therapist was providing and arts and craft group session. Service users appeared to be enjoying the session, with one saying “I enjoy these classes and making things”. The OT reported that she spent a lot of time with the service users at the Old Vic and has arranged trips out for the day, with the service users input. Other activities provided are social groups, home visits, the gym and trips to the theatre and cinema. Service users also had TV’s and DVD’s in their bedroom. A TV is provided in the main communal space and a pool table is situated in another
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 large communal room. The home provides good spacious communal areas, which the manager said were always used as the service users often needed space from each other. Service users are supported to maintain links with family and friends. Some service users have weekend home visits. Service users can receive visitors at any responsible time; this was evidence through the visitors signing in book. A visitor spoke with the inspector who said, “I am very happy with the care here and Shelia is marvellous”. The approach of the staff and routines of the home are flexible supporting the rights of the service users. At the commencement of the inspection service users wishing to remain in bed did so and could receive their breakfast where they wished. The staff were observed knocking on bedroom doors before entering and identifying themselves to service users. The staff were observed interacting well with service users and even when communication was limited, the staff were able to understand the service users’ requests. If the requests was inappropriate, staff would try and divert the service user but with respect. Mrs Pickering has been leading the menu change across the six homes. The menus have been changed to cater for the wide range of age groups living at Glenside. Mrs Pickering is now also going to introduce pictorial menus, so service users with limited communication or reading skills, can choose from the menus. The main hot meal of the day was served at lunchtime, which provided a good choice of food. The majority of service users had their meal in the dining area. The staff supported service users with their meal where needed. A service user said, “I like the food here” and another “They feed us well”. A service user with swallowing problems, was fed by a gastric feeding tube, all appropriate systems were in place to support this. Each service user had a nutritional risk assessment in place and weights were monitored monthly. Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 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. Service users retain, administer and control their own medication where appropriate, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. The ageing, illness and death of a service user are handled with respect and as the individual would wish. The Commission considers Standards 18, 19, and 20 the key standards to be inspected. 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 home provides a good standard of personal and nursing care. The medication procedure was safe and medications were frequently reviewed, with service users taking minimum amount of medications. EVIDENCE: The care staff work hard to provide a good standard of personal care, which was evident through the well presented appearance of the service user. Consideration should be given, that providing personal care to service users with challenging behaviours, due to mental health care needs can be difficult to achieve. All personal care is provided behind closed doors, either in the privacy of the service users’ bedroom or bathroom. A service user was observed being encouraged to place his dirty laundry in the appropriate place, again trying to promote independence. Evidence was seen in the care records of health care needs being closely monitored by the nursing staff and prompt, appropriate action being taken
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 when changes in health care needs occurred. All service users are registered with a local GP who visits the home weekly and when requested. A record of all visits is kept. A physiologist is employed by Glenside manor who is also involved with the care of the service users.

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 is judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. A complaints policy and procedure is in place and available to service users. There are polices and procedure in place to protect service users and the staff receive training in abuse awareness. EVIDENCE: A complaints policy and procedure are in place. The complaints procedure is openly displayed in the entrance of the home. A record of complaints is maintained along with the outcome of the complaint and what action (if required) was taken. Through discussion with the manager, it was evident she had an open and positive approach to complaints. A service user was asked who they would talk to if they had any concerns of complaints, the response was “I would talk to Shelia as she is in charge”. Glenside provides annual training in abuse awareness and vulnerable adults to all levels of staff and is part of the induction programme. Through discussion with the manager it was evident Mrs Pickering had a good understanding of how to make a vulnerable adults referral, if an allegation of abuse was reported to her. The employment procedure for the Glenside homes is robust and protects the service users as much as possible. Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Environment
The intended outcomes for Standards 24 – 30 are: 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users live in a homely, comfortable and safe environment. Service users’ bedrooms suit their needs and lifestyles. Service users’ bedrooms promote their independence. Service users’ toilets and bathrooms provide sufficient privacy and meet their individual needs. Shared spaces complement and supplement service users’ individual rooms. 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, 29 and 30 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The home provides a good standard of accommodation, which is appropriate to the service user group. The home is well maintained, apart from three bedroom carpets. The sharing of equipment across campus will need to be addressed. EVIDENCE: Good improvements had been made to the main communal area of the home since the previous inspection. The communal area had been refurbished and is now decorated in a more appropriate style for the service user group. New flooring has been laid which is easy to clean and maintain, whilst being hard wearing. The home offers two other large communal rooms, plus a conservatory with an enclosed garden to the rear of the home. Some of the armchairs are stained and are unable to be cleaned. The home is well maintained considering the complex needs of the service users living there. A
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 smoking room is situated on the ground floor. Bedrooms are situated on the ground and first floor. A communal room is provided for the elderly service users on the ground floor. The inspector was able to visit the majority of the bedrooms. Some bedrooms are very personalised, with photographs of families, small pieces of furniture brought in from home, this depending on the individual service user. All the bedrooms were decorated to suit the age group of the service users. However due to behavioural problems, furniture and personal items had been destroyed. In one case the manager was trying some very hardwearing bedroom furniture, which she hoped could not be destroyed. The elderly service users all had very cosy and personalised bedrooms, which suited their needs. A weighing scale suitable for wheelchair users is provided across the campus, for use by all homes on site. Discussions with the maintenance department also indicated that while industrial carpet cleaners were available, there were not enough for each registration. Joint use of equipment across the campus needs to be reviewed, as while it is appreciated that the sharing of equipment between units may be necessary, such sharing may also involve a range of risk to health and safety and spread of infection. This needs to be fully considered. Communal toilets situated off the large communal area had raised toilet seats, which were in poor condition and again could pose a risk of cross infection. The home was clean through out, apart from the flooring in three bedrooms, which was due to continence issues and did present with an odour. The carpet will need to be replaced. Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 Staffing

Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 programme when they take up their posts. This includes all relevant areas such as manual handling, health and safety, fire safety and infection control. Newly employed staff are issued with a standard induction booklet, which they and their trainer/mentor sign, once they have been fully inducted into each area. The Glenside Group supports NVQ training and approximately 80 of care staff are trained to NVQ 2 or above. Staff who work in the brain injury service receive additional training in the area, to enable them to fully support service users and be aware of the range of service users needs and therapies involved. All staff also undergo annual resuscitation. Additional training to meet service users needs also is provided in a range of other areas, for example prevention of pressure damage and diabetic care. Home managers are responsible for ensuring that their staff receives mandatory training. Information is freely available in each registration to show which members of staff need to attend training. The Glenside Group has a central human resources (personnel) department, which handles all applications for employment. Much improvement has been made since the previous inspection in a range of areas relating to employment of staff. All staff have a criminal records check and are checked against the vulnerable adults list. If positive results are identified, their suitability for their role is assessed and a risk assessment performed. All prospective staff complete an application form and health status questionnaire. At least two suitable references are now always obtained prior to employment. All staff are interviewed, using an interview tool. There is a clear system for regular staff supervision. All staff spoke with confirmed that they had received supervision at least six weeks and annual appraisal. Records relating to supervision and appraisal were seen on staff files. Supervisions and appraisal were individual in tone and issues relating to training and development were consistently included. Records showed that supervisions were also performed when it was considered that a member of staff needed additional support in a particular area. Supervision and appraisal records cross-referenced to training records, so that it was clear that where a member of staff has requested, or was assessed as needing training in a particular area, arrangement had been made for the person to attend training in a timely manner.

Shelia fully understands her role and responsibilities as manager and provides good leadership to the home, whilst creating a relaxed atmosphere for service users to live in.
Glenside Manor - Old Vicarage Wing DS0000015910.V329133.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Quality assurance systems are in place with audit visits from the senior management regularly taking place. Residents surveys are conducted, however Mrs Pickering stated that the service users are not keen to use them. When the menus across the campus were changed, Mrs Pickering conducted surveys for all service users who were able to comment prior to changing the menus, gaining their views of changes to be made and what they would like to see on the menu. The Glenside Group has systems to ensure that staff are trained as required in a range of matters relating to health and safety. A recent fire safety audit had taken place across service on site. At present night staff are trained in fire safety twice a year. The home is advised that, as fire officers consider the risk to service users at night, when there are fewer staff, to be higher, that all staff who work nights need to be trained in fire safety four times a year. A review of maintenance records and discussions with the maintenance manager showed that other area relating to health and safety, such as lifts, hoists and boiler servicing, fire safety checks and water temperatures testing takes place at the regularity advised.
