It is situated in a residential area, well placed for travel into the centre of Croydon with its wide selection of community facilities. The house forms part of a terrace, and is indistinguishable from any other house in the road. The stated philosophy of the home is to ‘provide a secure, stable and comfortable environment where individuality of care and maintenance of dignity is paramount’. Fees for placements currently range from £450 to £600 per week. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The key Standards identified throughout this report were assessed at this inspection. This inspection also focused on following up on previous requirements and recommendations, and any new issues arising. This inspection was unannounced and started early in the day to allow the residents to be met, before they went to their day activities. During this inspection the manager was interviewed. Records, policies and care plans and the building were examined. Two of the three previous requirements have been met and there has been progress on the remaining requirement. See below for details. Concerns were raised about the availability of staff but were not fully confirmed {see Standard 33}. Staffing and availability of staffing will therefore continue to be monitored and requirements made if evidenced as needed. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection? Internal reviews now occur at least 6- monthly for those under 65, and monthly for those over 65 years old. This is needed to ensure that changing needs {and the more rapidly changing needs of those over 65} are identified and addressed in a timely fashion. The water supply bacterial analysis testing results have been acquired. These are needed to protect the service users and ensure a safe environment. The hallway on the ground floor has had new flooring installed.

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): 2 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Prospective service users’ aspirations and needs are assessed before admission to ensure that the home knows these needs so that they can be met. EVIDENCE: At this and previous inspections the service users’ files contained all of the assessment and pre admission documentation required under Standard 2. The files sampled contained assessments and care plans, and the home’s own extensive pre-admission assessments of need and comprehensive risk assessments. There was also evidence that the Registered Provider had also attended a variety of meetings that enabled both the home and the placing authority to establish that this was the correct placement for this service user. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6, 7, and 9. Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Service users’ assessed needs, changing needs and how the home meets these needs are not all fully recorded. This could affect the home’s ability to meet and show how it has met all a resident’s known and changing needs. Service users make decisions about their lives with support where needed. The service users are generally safely supported to take risks as a part of independent living. EVIDENCE: The last report contained the following requirement under Standard 6: A record of all of a service user’s needs {containing all the elements set out under Standard 2} and how they are to be met and by whom, must be recorded in plans of care. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Files were sampled and care plans were available for all These had improved greatly but they still did not reflect required under Standard 6.2., which is also listed under In particular, personal care and support needs were not The requirement will remain in force until fully met. service users. all the elements Standard 2. all included. The last inspection report also contained the following requirement under Standard 6: Internal reviews must occur at least 6- monthly for those under 65, and monthly for those over 65 years old. This has now occurred for all the service users and this requirement is currently met. {Please see Standard 19 where a minor and connected shortfall is identified.} The service users are offered the opportunity to participate in the day to day running of the home and to contribute to the development and review of policies and services through regular house meetings and individual discussions with their key workers. The current service users are more than capable of making their needs and wishes known, and they are encouraged to make their own decisions about their day-to-day activities, and their lives in general. This was demonstrated in discussions with a service user who regularly raises a number of these issues during conversations. The service user described how satisfied he was with the placement – there was nothing he would like to change, he said he was happy at this home on a number of occasions and said there was nothing he needed, and he had no adverse comments to make. All service users look after their own financial affairs. Advocacy information is available in the home, no service user has to date expressed an interest in using these services. All service users have a range of external professionals from whom they can gain support. Risk is assessed prior to admission and continually updated. There are currently no restrictions of liberty practiced which are required for the protection of service users. The registered manager has completed risk assessments including an assessment of risk to service users while outside the home as required in previous inspections. Risk assessments in relation to the new service user are well documented including assessments undertaken by a consultant psychiatrist and the service user’s forensic social worker. The current risks are assessed to be low. Discussion with the Registered Provider evidenced that she is well versed in the process for monitoring service users and of further engaging them with services should they become unwell. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12, 13, 15, 16, and 17. Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Residents are part of the local community and are able to take part in appropriate activities to facilitate a fulfilling life. Residents are encouraged to have a healthy diet and support is provided where required. Residents are supported in maintaining appropriate relationships, so that their social lives are maximised. The daily routines and house rules promote residents’ rights, to ensure equality and that all rights are enjoyed by all residents. EVIDENCE: One of the service users currently placed has told me that he attends two day centres, a club, and has the opportunity to participate in activities of his choosing. This service user had attended evening classes previously. This service user was positive about the choice of activities that were available, and felt that they were sufficient although he did express a wish to now consider expanding these. One service user has talked about going out to the theatre, Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 meals out, clubs, and using the library. Examination of care plans showed that the other service users also had access to activities. Service users access the community independently and engage in activities of their choice. Information about local community resources is available and known to the home. The service users are able to go out into the community unaccompanied if they so wish. They make good use of community facilities such as the local shops and library. Service users are well supported to maintain contact with friends and family. Previous service users have had a wide range of friends and family who have been made welcome in the home, and one service user had a boyfriend with whom she regularly visited. Service users have confirmed that they can receive visitors. No restrictions on having visitors were noted during the inspection. The daily routines do promote independence. All service users are offered keys to the front door and their rooms. Service users can choose when to be alone or when to be in company. Service users have full unrestricted access to all communal parts of the home. Independence skills are promoted as a part of the care plan where required. Service users are fully supported to develop and maintain independence skills. A joint decision between the service users and staff resulted in the home being a smoke free zone. One service user smokes, and is happy to go outside for this purpose. The menu of the home was available for inspection and is recorded along with a record of food actually consumed. The service users are consulted as to their meal preferences and while a menu is drawn up it may frequently change. The service users currently have confirmed this, and said they still liked the food at the home. A wide range of food is offered, this is usually a cooked lunch with a lighter meal for the evening. Where required support from dieticians was seen to have been sought by the home. A range of fresh fruit is also available. The home monitors weight as needed. See also Standard 19 regarding action taken to significant changes in weight. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18, 19, and 20. Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Service users personal support needs and emotional health needs are generally met well by this home. This ensures that the residents’ physical and emotional health is well maintained and therefore the quality of life experienced is also maximised. Service users currently self medicate with support from staff to ensure maximised good health. EVIDENCE: The service users are encouraged to be self-caring. Where required, guidance and support is given to service users to ensure that their personal care needs are met. All service users are able to shop for their own clothes. There are no specific times set for getting up/going to bed, meals or other activities. Personal care is not currently provided by the home or required by the service users accommodated. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 There are no service users currently requiring aids and adaptations although this need continues to be monitored. One service user had lost 6kgs in 6 months. This person needs monthly weighing to meet the Older Persons Standards. There had not been any record of weight for the last three months even though the regular previous weight loss had been identified. There was no reference to this weight loss in the accompanying reviews for these months and no amendment to care plans to show if this weight loss had gone too far or needed to continue. The following requirement is therefore set under Standard 19: Service users over 65 must be weighed monthly and records of action taken in the event of significant weight loss must be recorded and included in reviews, with the care plan amended as needed. Inspection of the service users’ files confirmed that all are registered with a G.P. and all have been supported to gain access to NHS resources as required. Regular health checks are also offered and specific referrals are made as and when identified as needed. Service users attend their health appointments independently and manage their own medication. The Registered Provider maintains a list of all current medication. All service users have their own keys to their bedrooms so that they can keep their medication safely. A British National Formulary is available for guidance for staff. All staff who administer medication have had accredited training and additional in-house training. In addition, the manager is a registered nurse. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Concerns, Complaints and Protection 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 22 and 23. Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Complaints are generally managed well so that service users feel their views are listened to. The home’s policies and procedures relevant to this Standard generally facilitate protecting residents from abuse, neglect and self harm. EVIDENCE: No complaints have been made since the previous inspection. Discussion with the service users have confirmed that service users are familiar with the complaints procedure. The home has a complaints procedure in place, which clearly states how complaints will be investigated, recorded and redressed. This procedure contained all the elements required under Standard 22, including a 28 day response time and details of how to contact the Commission. Records are kept of all complaints. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 The registered manager does not employ any permanent staff other than her husband who is also a provider of the service. The registered manager carries out most of the care duties, with assistance from her husband. The registered manager has attended the training in adult protection facilitated by Croydon Council and an appropriate in house policy has been written. The home has a copy of Croydon’s Vulnerable Adults Policy. All the policies relevant to this Standard were in place. These included the following: A restraints policy, an adult protection policy, a physical and verbal aggression policy, a whistle blowing policy, an access to files policy, and a gifts and wills policy. All the above policies were present and known to staff. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 24 and 30. Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. The environment is homely comfortable and generally safe, and the environment does promote the residents well being. The home is generally hygienic and clean. This environment therefore facilitates the residents’ health and emotional well-being. EVIDENCE: Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 One service user currently placed has said that the extension to the lounge was the area he preferred to frequent, other than when he is spending time relaxing in his room. The home’s premises are accessible to the current service user group, in keeping with the local community, and are suitable for their purpose. The premises were generally clean, and well maintained. Records are maintained of all decoration and renewal. There was suitable domestic lighting and ventilation. At the time of the inspection the premises were furnished and in an appropriate style. The home has specific policies covering the disposal of clinical waste, control of infection, use of cleaning materials, storage and preparation of food, and dealing with spillages. Laundry facilities have easily cleanable floors and easily cleanable walls. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. Service users benefit from clarity of staff roles and responsibilities. Service users are supported by competent and qualified staff. Service users are supported by an effective staff team. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Service users’ individual and joint needs are met by appropriately trained staff. Service users benefit from well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 32, 34 and 35 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 32, 33, 34, and 35. Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. There are no staff employed to activate the staffing qualification standard. Staffing levels at the home have been previously assessed as sufficient to meet the low level of need assessed for this service user group. The home’s recruitment procedures generally protect the residents through vigorous staff vetting. Induction and foundation training programme within Sector Skills Council training specifications and timescales could not be assessed as there are currently no permanent staff employed other than the original providers. EVIDENCE: As the home does not currently have any staff Standard 32 and staffing qualifications does not apply. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Twenty four hour staffing has been previously recorded as the agreed staffing level. Given the low support needs of the service users this staffing ratio was seen to be appropriate. This cover is provided by the Registered Provider and her husband. However, the 2004 inspection report recorded the following under Standard 33: It was of considerable concern to find a service user alone in the house, with no clear idea when a member of staff would return, or where they had gone. Once it was possible to contact the manager this was discussed in length. The following requirement was then set: The manager must ensure that there is a member of staff in the house when any of the service users are at home unless it has been clearly documented in the relevant service user plan that a specific resident may, as part of their individual development, spend short periods in the house alone. By the time of the last inspection appropriate medical advice had been acquired in writing to confirm that it was seen as appropriate for the current service user placed to be left alone for short periods. In addition the service user in question was aware of who would be coming in on this occasion and when. The previous requirement is currently met. However, there are now 3 service users, and their have been concerns raised that the manager has been caring for her baby while she was supposed to be available for the residents. Although this was not fully confirmed at this inspection it was observed to be the case at the last inspection. Staffing and availability of staffing will therefore continue to be monitored and requirements made if evidenced as needed. All elements of Schedule 2 {staff files} are kept securely on site and are available for inspection. This includes CRB checks, references and records of staff disciplinary action. These have been previously checked and are now in order. Standard 35, An Induction and foundation training programme within Sector Skills Council training specifications and timescales could not be assessed as there are currently no permanent staff employed other than the original providers. This Standard will be examined when and if permanent staff are employed. Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Conduct and Management of the Home The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. Service users are confident their views underpin all self-monitoring, review and development by the home. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s policies and procedures. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users are promoted and protected. Service users benefit from competent and accountable management of the service. The Commission considers Standards 37, 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 37, 39, and 42. Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered both during and before the visit to this service. Service users benefit from a generally well run home. Although there is a quality assurance system there is no annual development plan that provides service users with inclusion in developments in the home, and a way for them to measure improvements in quality for themselves. The health and safety, and welfare of the residents is generally promoted and protected although more regular testing of systems is required to better protect the service users. EVIDENCE: There was a clear line of accountability within the home and the owner/manager demonstrated a good knowledge of residents. The owner/manager has managed this home since 2000, she is a Registered Nurse. The Registered Provider has commenced her studies of the Registered Kimberley Road (44) DS0000028141.V303416.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 Manager’s award. The Registered Provider is also fully involved in the Partnership Board, which is a forum of homes in the Local Authority that access training and share experience and good practice. The Registered Provider has used this forum to develop her skills, knowledge and practice. There is a quality assurance system, although this does not fully involve service users. The quality assurance tools include the complaints system, service user meetings, one to one discussions, user satisfaction surveys, audits and inspections. There was an annual development plan but this did not have any service user input as user satisfaction surveys did not previously include questions that could be used for this purpose. The annual development plan contained only business plans for the future. This process needs to facilitate obtaining improvements required that are relevant to the service users and to allow the service users concerns to be included in development and improving quality. To address this the last report contained the following recommendation under Standard 39: The home’s quality assurance system needs to involve the service users and make them central to the process. To achieve this the home should expand the user/relatives satisfaction surveys to include those ‘quality’ related service users’ views that could contribute and possibly be included in the annual development plan. Although new questionnaires have been produced these have not been given to the new service users yet. In addition the annual development plan still needs to reflect any comments they may make. This recommendation will stay in place until fully met. The last report contained the following requirement under Standard 42: The water supply bacterial analysis testing certificate must be sent into the Commission. This has occurred and this requirement is now met. Control Of Substances Hazardous to Health policies were observed and these substances were all locked away. Risk assessments covering safe working practices were present. All of the health and safety policies and procedures relevant to this Standard were seen to be present. All of the procedures and testing of systems required in Standard 42 were also present, except portable appliance testing results. The following requirement is set to address this under Standard 42: The portable appliance testing results must be sent into the Commission.
