This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. A key unannounced inspection was conducted in respect of Margaret House on the 10th & 11th January 2007. Information about the service was received at the Commission prior to the inspection. The inspection involved getting information from staff records, care records and policies and procedures. It also involved talking to residents, staff on duty, the registered provider, and included a tour of the premises. Fifteen responses were returned to the Commission from residents and visitors who gave their personal view of the services provided. Areas that needed to improve from the previous inspection were looked at for progress made. The home was assessed against the National Minimum Standards for Older People. What the service does well:
Before any services are provided, resident’s needs were assessed. They were consulted about the level and type of care they required and could visit the home to look for themselves at the facilities offered. Important information needed to support them in every day living was recorded and used to plan the care they required. This helped to personalise care and show staff what they should do to achieve this. Contracts given to residents informed them of the terms and conditions of residence. Staff were trained in dementia care, which meant they understood the diversity of residents special needs. Residents living in the home benefited the support of a named worker referred to as a Key worker who took responsibility to make sure care needs for individuals was personalised. Healthcare needs were also monitored and staff worked with visiting medical professionals for the benefit of residents. Relatives who sent written comments for the inspection said they were made welcome to the home and could make a visit in private if they wished. Relatives also said they were always kept informed of any changes in their relatives care needs. Social activities were managed very well and some residents had enjoyed a holiday at Blackpool. Visitors who sent written comments for the inspection said they were made welcome to the home and could make a visit in private if they wished. One comment read ‘As a casual visitor, the home appears to be well run and the
Margaret House DS0000009578.V323191.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 residents appeared to be happy and well cared for.’ Relatives also said they were always kept informed of any changes in their relatives care needs. There were no rules in the home and routine was personal to each resident. Residents said their meals were ‘good’ with choices offered. Complaints were taken seriously and residents and relatives had confidence any issue they raised would be dealt with properly. Residents said the home was a nice place to live, as one resident said ‘you’ll not find any better’. They were comfortable and warm. They considered staff to be polite, always there for them and respected them. Recruitment and selection of staff was thorough and protected residents. The level of staffing maintained, training provided and supervision was excellent which meant residents were care for by competent qualified staff.

I need eat a well-balanced and regular diet and to drink plenty of fluids’. Particular attention staff must give to residents when providing care was recorded such as ‘observe discreetly’, Reviews of residents needs was ongoing. Margaret House DS0000009578.V323191.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 The residents’ healthcare needs were also detailed in the care plan. This included visits from medical professionals such as General Practitioners. To support residents with mental healthcare needs, community psychiatric nurses visited individual people and gave staff written advice on their care. Risks to resident’s well being was also detailed and were excellent in how these were recorded. These included potential consequences should the risk materialise, and what should staff do to prevent/minimise the risk. If risk occurs how staff respond now and later and what can be done to protect the resident and the staff. Staff had signed completed risk assessments. Responses sent to the Commission show that residents felt they received care and support at the home and received medical support they needed. Continence care was managed and necessary products used. The residents spoken to felt the staff respected their right to privacy. Privacy and dignity was included in care planning such as ‘when immersed in his bath would like five minutes privacy.

Staff are always there for you, and we’re here to help’. “They’re very good’ and ‘helpful’. Relatives who sent comments to the Commission also praised staff for the care they gave. ‘thankyou for the wonderful care you gave her. She did enjoy her time with you’. Residents who had difficulty in saying what they wanted during the inspection were treated with respect, and staff had taken care in making sure their appearance was good. The home operated a monitored dosage system for the administration of medication. This was audited by the supplying pharmacist. An appropriate recording system was in place to record the receipt, administration and disposal of medication. A record of medicines received into the home had been maintained and medication had been returned to the pharmacy for disposal. Records of medication administered were up to date.

For example ‘is happy with all care given by staff’; ‘was not used to having large meals. Has got used to the food given to him and the choices offered’; ‘happy and content. Likes his room and the privacy he has.’ This information supports resident care and is an opportunity for staff to look at how well they are meeting residents’ needs. Views about the home were both formal and informal with residents and staff meetings. However views of residents and other people from anonymous questionnaires should be sought. The findings of this survey should then be published and made available for people to look at, and a copy sent to the Commission. Residents were pleased about all aspects about living in the home. One resident said ‘I’d not find better’. Staff confirmed they were supervised, and had an appraisal. Staff supervision records showed for example personal development, review of workload, and targets met. Staff said they felt supported in their work, and supervision was organised and beneficial. Staff meet together daily and have ‘shift meetings’ to discuss residents and other issues relevant to their work for the day and night. Routines for staff in the home were established, and good teamwork was evident. As staff said ‘that’s the good thing about here, we all work together as one team.’ A quality assurance for the home had not been carried out for the year. This should be done, the results published and made available for all interested parties. The health, safety and welfare of residents and staff had been considered. All staff trained in mandatory training and staff had access to policies and procedures for safe working practice. Information contained in the pre – inspection questionnaire indicated that essential services such as gas and electricity were regularly serviced. Records showed work required by the fire department had been completed satisfactorily. Margaret House DS0000009578.V323191.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 SCORING OF OUTCOMES
