What the care home does well

The quality of information provided for prospective service users is good. The homes Statement of Purpose and Service User Guide have recently been reviewed. The home offers plenty of activities both in the home and in the community. Staffing at 7 Hall Road is provided on a one to one basis and the home employs ten therapists who work alongside the staff team at the home to devise individual programmes for the service users. These include a speech and language therapist, occupational therapist, music therapist, reflexologist, complimentary therapist, physiotherapist, nutritional therapist, drama therapist and a psychologist. The nutritionist works with the cook to ensure that service users allergies and dietary needs are catered for. A large number of positive comment cards were returned to the Commission from relatives. The home manager commented on the good relationship that has been built up between relatives and staff at the home.

What has improved since the last inspection?

The home has been opened since July 2003 and the home manager has done well in establishing systems and procedures for the efficient running of the home. There have been some "teething" problems with the reporting of incidents although the home manager plans to discus policies and procedures at the staff team meetings, which should increase awareness of issues such as confidentiality. The home has two requirements from the unannounced inspection on 10th February 2005. The first requirement was to obtain a copy of the local authority Adult Protection Policy and the second was to compile a service users guide. The home has met both these requirements.

What the care home could do better:

The service users contracts were not available at the time of the inspection as they are held at "Independence Homes" head office. A copy of the service users Contracts should be held on service users files at the home. Although the home manager has attended the in-house training course on adult abuse it would be beneficial to the home for her to attend the training run by the local authority. The home does not currently have a business plan in place. The home should implement a business plan, which will set out the home aims for the year and can tie in to the staff annual appraisals and the homes quality assurance systems.
