What the care home does well

The home is well run by a dedicated and professional manager who is aware of his responsibilities and supports staff to provide a good standard of care to the residents. The stable staff team have a good understanding of the needs of the residents in their care and the vast majority of residents were very positive about the home. Residents have a say in how their care is to be delivered and the management of the home quickly responds to any concerns they may have. Residents are encouraged to live as independently as possible and can choose from a range of activities provided by the home. Relatives and friends of residents are made welcome.The building is clean, well maintained and decorated to a high standard. Health and safety is taken seriously by the home and potential risks to residents` safety are assessed and as far as possible reduced.

What has improved since the last inspection?

It is clear that lessons have been learnt from the recent complaint investigation and the manager is must more vigilant in assessing the needs of residents before they move into the home. Communication systems have been improved so that the relatives are kept aware of how residents are getting on. The deputy manager has worked very hard to improve the recording and monitoring of medication at the home. Risks to residents` safety are highlighted and ways of reducing these risks has now been recorded. Residents` recreational interests are now being recorded in more detail in their individual care plans. Three requirements issued at the last inspection and seven requirements issued from the complaints investigation have all been complied with.

What the care home could do better:

Three requirements have been issued in relation to health and safety and one requirement has been issued in relation to staff training. One requirement that all meals that need to be liquidized are done so separately has also been made. The inspector is confident that the registered manager will comply with all these requirements within the timescales given.

Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Each service user has a written contract/ statement of terms and conditions with the home. No service user moves into the home without having had his/her needs assessed and been assured that these will be met. Service users and their representatives know that the home they enter will meet their needs. Prospective service users and their relatives and friends have an opportunity to visit and assess the quality, facilities and suitability of the home. Service users assessed and referred solely for intermediate care are helped to maximise their independence and return home. The Commission considers Standards 3 and 6 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 3 (6 not applicable) The registered manager makes sure that all potential service users have a comprehensive assessment completed before they move into the home so that the service users know the home will be able to meet their needs. EVIDENCE: Three files were examined from the last three service users to be admitted to the home. As a result of a recent complaint made by a relative of a service user, a requirement was issued that no service users were to be admitted without first confirming that the home can meet all of the assessed needs of that service user. The files examined contained detailed assessments carried out by the registered manager and relevant professionals. The assessments covered all the topics of Standard 3 of the National Minimum Standards for Older People. The inspector also saw satisfactory evidence that the registered manager confirmed in writing to all potential service users that the home could meet all the assessed needs of service users before they moved in to the home on a trial basis. The requirement has now been complied with. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 9 Health and Personal Care The intended outcomes for Standards 7 – 11 are: 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. The service user’s health, personal and social care needs are set out in an individual plan of care. Service users’ health care needs are fully met. Service users, where appropriate, are responsible for their own medication, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. Service users feel they are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. Service users are assured that at the time of their death, staff will treat them and their family with care, sensitivity and respect. The Commission considers Standards 7, 8, 9 and 10 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 7, 8, 9 and 10. Individual care plans clearly record how the staff at the home are to meet the needs of service users. Service users have good access to health care professionals and are given the correct medication at the right times and by appropriately trained staff. Service users are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. EVIDENCE: The inspector examined six care plans during the inspection. All care plans seen included information regarding the interests of service users and how staff are to keep service users occupied during the day. This was a requirement from the previous inspection that has now been complied with. As a result of a recent complaint made by a relative of a service user, a requirement was issued that all risk assessments must include a detailed account of how risks actually identified are to be reduced. All individual risk assessments seen included this information. The requirement has been complied with. Care plans examined contained satisfactory written information regarding the treatment of pressure wounds. This was a requirement from the last inspection that has now been complied with. The inspector observed good communication between the visiting district nurse and the staff at the home. The registered manager said that service users are registered with a GP, many THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 10 with the GP who is contracted to make monthly visits to the home for consultations. All service users have access to district nurses; a dentist, optician and chiropodist visit the home to examine and treat service users. Service users are referred to the geriatrician, community psychiatric nurse, psycho-geriatrician, as necessary. The home operates a continence management system and receives advice from the district nurses. Armchair exercises take place weekly under the supervision of an occupational therapist. The inspector examined the records in relation to the receipt, storage, administration and disposal of medicines at the home. Since the last inspection the accuracy of recording has improved and three requirements issued at the last inspection and one from a recent complaint have now all been complied with. The deputy manager in the process of compiling a record of medication used at the home with information for staff on possible side effects. The registered manager described arrangements for personal care. Examinations are usually carried out in the service user’s room; staff are expected to knock at bedroom, toilet and bathroom doors and were observed doing this. Service users’ preferred form of address were recorded. Personal care was provided discreetly. Service users were observed to be appropriately dressed and clothes are individually marked. Service users that the inspector spoke with said that staff were respectful and considerate in regard to their privacy. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 11 Daily Life and Social Activities The intended outcomes for Standards 12 - 15 are: 12. 13. 14. 15. Service users find the lifestyle experienced in the home matches their expectations and preferences, and satisfies their social, cultural, religious and recreational interests and needs. Service users maintain contact with family/ friends/ representatives and the local community as they wish. Service users are helped to exercise choice and control over their lives. Service users receive a wholesome appealing balanced diet in pleasing surroundings at times convenient to them. The Commission considers all of the above key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 12, 13, 14 and 15. Service users can choose from a range of activities and entertainments provided by the home. Visitors to the home are welcomed and can visit at any reasonable time. The manager and staff encourage service users to exercise choice and control over their lives. Service users receive a wholesome, balanced diet in relaxed and comfortable surroundings. EVIDENCE: During the inspection there was evidence that service users were able to exercise choice in their daily lives. The home has introduced a formal activities programme to respond to differing interests: once a week, a visiting occupational therapist runs a session comprising reminiscence, general knowledge and chair exercises; about once a week staff provide an arts & crafts session. Both have proved increasingly popular with service users and participation has been good. In addition outside entertainers visit approximately twice a month. On the day of the inspection an entertainer had been booked and service users said they were looking forward to this. Case records recorded preferred times of rising and retiring, when service users wanted to take breakfast. Lunch and supper are served at set times. Records showed that choices are offered. The deputy manager has THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 12 implemented a new section of the care plan in which key workers build up a written life history for individual service users. As a result of a recent complaint made by a relative of a service user, a requirement was issued that all service users are asked if they would like their relative to be notified of any accidents during the night. This requirement has now been complied with and satisfactory records were seen. The manager informed the inspectors that visitors are always welcome. Service users can meet their relatives in their own rooms or in any of the communal rooms. The inspector examined a satisfactory record of visitors to the home. The registered manager said that none of the service users were able to handle their own financial affairs; some are handled by their relatives or the local authority. Service users are encouraged to bring personal possessions with them and evidence of this was seen in the bedrooms. The registered manager said that, although no service user had asked for this, access to their records would be facilitated on request. The registered manager said that relatives act as advocates for many service users; for those without families, he would approach the social worker. Breakfast is based on individual choices. The menu for lunch, drawn up by the manager in consultation with the cook, is based on service users’ known preferences with a range of alternatives. Supper consists of a range of cooked choices, sandwiches and cakes. Hot drinks and biscuits were served morning, afternoon and at a late supper. Fruit drinks are served at each meal and are available throughout the day. The inspector was able to have a general discussion with service users regarding the quality of the food. Service users stated that they liked the food and the inspector saw that the food was well presented and balanced nutritionally. One service users said the food was “always very good”. Lunch was enjoyable, relaxed and friendly. Service users and staff were laughing and joking with each other and after the meal the cook came out of the kitchen to ask the service users if they enjoyed the meal. Staff were sitting opposite service users and engaging them in conversation while providing discreet assistance when needed. This was done in a relaxed and friendly manner. It was noted that where meals had to be liquidised this was being done with all the food mixed together. The registered manager must ensure that where food is liquidised, that all parts of the meal are liquidised separately so service users are able to taste meat, potatoes and vegetables separately. A requirement relating to this has been issued in the relevant section of this report. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 13 Complaints and Protection The intended outcomes for Standards 16 - 18 are: 16. 17. 18. Service users and their relatives and friends are confident that their complaints will be listened to, taken seriously and acted upon. Service users’ legal rights are protected. Service users are protected from abuse. The Commission considers Standards 16 and 18 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 16 and 18 The home deals with complaints properly and all complaints are recorded and investigated in line with the home’s complaints policy. Service users are protected from abuse by clear policies and procedures and from a suitably trained staff team. EVIDENCE: The home’s complaints procedure, displayed on the notice board, specifies how complaints can be made, a 28-day timescale for a response and gives the details of the CSCI. The register of complaints was examined; the complaint is logged, together with the action taken and the outcome. As a result of a complaint made by a relative of a service user at the home a requirement was issued that all complaints received by the home are to be accurately recorded. Examination of the complaints register confirmed that this requirement has now been complied with. The home has a satisfactory Adult Protection procedure, which includes Whistle Blowing. The manager was aware of his responsibilities in regard to this issue and has obtained a copy of the Department of Health’s guidance “No Secrets”. The registered manager was aware of his responsibilities in connection with the Protection Of Vulnerable Adults list. There was evidence that staff have undertaken training in adult abuse awareness and staff spoken to had a good understanding of the issues of protecting service users from abuse. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 14 Environment The intended outcomes for Standards 19 – 26 are: 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26.

EVIDENCE: The home is accessible, with a shaft lift connecting all floors; small flights of stairs on the first and second floor have been replaced with ramps. The lounges and dining rooms are comfortably furnished and well decorated. A regular maintenance check is made by senior staff and faults rectified when reported. The laundry and sluice are situated on the second floor, thus the removal of soiled articles and clinical waste are kept separate from the kitchen and food storage areas. The registered manager said that the washing machines washed at 65°C and conformed to the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999; hand washing facilities were available. The flooring in the laundry area is in need of a though clean as a build up of washing powder has occurred. A requirement relating to this has been issued in the relevant section of this report. The home has a policy on infection control and dealing with spillages; latex gloves and protective aprons were seen being used and to be available in THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 15 appropriate places throughout the home. Continence management systems are in place to deal with incontinence. All areas of the home were clean and free from offensive odours. During the inspection of the kitchen it was noted that the back door was open as the day was extremely hot. This practice is obviously needed but the back door must be fitted with a fly screen. A requirement relating to this has been made in the relevant section of this report.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 27,29 and 30 Service users benefit from a positive, caring and competent staff team. The home has good staff recruitment policies and procedures that are designed to protect service users. In general the staff team receive a good level of training but the manager must make sure that all staff receive the required mandatory training needed for working in a residential home for older people. EVIDENCE: The registered manager said there are 5 care staff (including a senior staff) on duty during the morning and 3 or 4 in the afternoon; at night there are 3 waking night staff. The staffing rota confirmed this. The staffing establishment consists of: the registered manager, 1 deputy manager, 1 assistant manager, 22 care staff (including night staff), cook, domestic staff and administrator. The home meets the guidelines set by the previous regulatory authority on staffing ratios. One service user informed the inspector that the staff at the home are “very nice”. Another service user commented that the staff are “very good and like a joke”. It was clear from observations during the inspection that the staff were aware of the communication issues faced by people with dementia and how to communicate effectively with them. The home has a Recruitment policy and an Equal Opportunities policy. The records of six staff appointed were examined. All of these files contained the required information. The manager was well aware that no new staff could be employed until a satisfactory CRB disclosure has been received including a POVA check. There was evidence that all staff working at the home had received a suitable CRB disclosure. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 17 The registered manager has implemented an excellent induction and foundation work programme for staff which links in with NVQ and Care Skills requirements.

EVIDENCE: There was evidence that the home has good quality monitoring systems in place. A sample of the most resent questionnaires sent to service users and their families was examined. These were very positive regarding the quality of the service with comments such as “my relative is in good hands”. Minutes of service users meetings were seen. These were detailed and clearly identified were suggested improvements have been implemented. The home holds small amounts of money for most service users for hairdressing, chiropody and other minor expenses. THE GRANGE G59 S10446 The Grange V221430 23.06.05 Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 19 All records examined were accurate and included a clear audit trail. Service users money is being stored appropriately. As a result of a complaint made by a relative of a service user a requirement was issued that all service users have a accurate inventory list in their file. Satisfactory inventory list records were seen in all files examined. This requirement has now been complied with. Overall there are good policies and procedures in place at the home to monitor compliance with health and safety requirements. The fire alarm and emergency lighting were last checked on 07/05/05 and the fire extinguishers were checked in June 2005. The boiler was last checked on 14/07/04. The home has risk assessments for safe working practices at the home including fire safety. The registered manager informed the inspector that these fire risk assessments will be reviewed by the home’s fire consultant. Records indicated that fire training took place in the last month, which included a fire drill. The manager informed the inspector that he carries out night-time visits to the home and during the last visit all fire doors were closed.
