This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The unannounced inspection took place over 3 hours and was conducted with a senior support worker on duty. One resident was at home during the inspection and their comments have been included within the report. A tour of the premises took place and documents inspected included one care plan, risk assessments, menus, medication administration records, health and safety records, and staff records including the staffing rotas. The inspector would like to thank the resident who assisted with the inspection and the member of staff on duty for their time, assistance and hospitality during the inspection. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better:
It is required that the Statement of Purpose be updated to reflect the current staffing arrangements in the home. A requirement has been made that all resident’s files are stored to respect the individual’s rights to privacy and confidentiality and ensure that resident’s risk assessments related to their achievements and goals are reviewed and updated. During the tour of the premises the inspector observed that the bed for staff sleep in duties was permanently situated in the resident’s dining room. The
