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 standard(s) 1,2,5, The homes Statement of Purpose and Service Users Guide provides service users and prospective service users with details of the services the home offers, enabling them to make an informed decision about admission to the home. The home does have an admission procedure to ensure the needs of potential service users can be meet. There are contracts in place for all service users EVIDENCE: The home has an up to date Statement of Purpose in place, which contains the information out-lined in schedule 1 of the regulations. The Service Users Guide is well written and informative. Due to the limited communication skills of some of the service user’s the guide needs to be produced in the language and format that can be understood, the office manager is working on this. The service users at the home have all been resident for 18 years so there have been no recent admissions. The home does have admission procedures in place to guide staff on the action to take prior to accepting any one into the home. Any prospective service users would be properly assessed and a planned transition period would take place. No emergency or unplanned placements are accepted into the home.

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 standard(s) 6,7,8,9 The Service users individual needs and choices are supported and met by the care staff. Not all risks to the service users are identified, recorded and minimised. EVIDENCE: Care plans have been enhanced and developed since the last inspection and are of a good standard. All care plans were looked at during the visit. There are individual care plans in place for each of the service users, and there is a key worker system operating within the home. The care plans reflect the individual needs of each of the service users and the action that is required of the care staff to attain this. Out-comes and goals are also identified. There was evidence to show that plans are reviewed and up-dated on a regular basis. The plans detail, personal care information, medical needs, social needs, preferences, service user questionnaire and individual abilities. Six monthly reviews have not taken place with significant professionals as up until recently service users did not have any care management input from the local social services team. Reviews will hopefully soon commence. King Edward House H56-H05 S23215 King Edward House V223743 210605 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 11 Through observation and when speaking to the service users there is evidence to support that Service Users are involved in decision-making processes pertaining to their own lives. All the bedrooms have been redecorated and service users were fully in involved in choosing the paint colours and buying the accessories. Care staffs and service users were able to demonstrate how individual choices had been made and the reasons why others had sometimes made decisions. Progress has been made since the last inspection in developing more robust risk assessments for the service users in the home but they do require some more work to ensure that all risks have been identified and minimised. This was particularly in relation to service users going out alone or with a carer or when service users are travelling in cars /minibuses provided by the home. The senior carer was going to start work on these immediately.
