What the care home does well

The home provides a high standard of care and support to a group of service users with a range of complex needs. The home by working consistently and professionally with the service users in partnership with other care professionals is able to support the service users to make significant progress with their personal development. The manager and staff demonstrated a good knowledge of the service users and were able to recognise their individual needs and how to respond appropriately to them. The service users are supported to have their individual needs met by a comprehensive care planning system, which incorporates ongoing review meetings. The service users are supported to develop their independent living skills in the home and community, based on their individual needs. The service users are supported to access a range of educational and leisure activities based on their individual interests and this enables them to have participation in the local community. The home has a well established and stable team of staff who are being supported by a manager who is just completing the registration process.The staff have access to a comprehensive induction and an ongoing programme of training to enable them to perform their roles to a high standard. The manager and staff show a high level of enthusiasm and commitment to their work in the home. The home is very clean, comfortable and homely and the service users each have an attractive single bedroom. The home also has access to two vehicles that are helpful in facilitating some of the community activities. The service users are protected and supported by the effective use of policies and procedures including medication systems, adult protection procedures, comprehensive risk assessments, health and safety procedures and an effective complaints procedure.

What has improved since the last inspection?

There was one requirement at the previous inspection and this was to provide staff training on how to positively support service users who have complex challenging behaviours. This training took place in January 2006.

What the care home could do better:

There are four requirements made at this inspection. These are to keep the staff training profile up to date to ensure staff receive refresher training as required and to arrange for staff training on epilepsy and the protection of vulnerable adults where staff need this training updated. The home must also ensure that staff records include an up to date copy of their passport and a copy of their current visa where needed.

Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 7 DETAILS OF INSPECTOR FINDINGS CONTENTS Choice of Home (Standards 1–5) Individual Needs and Choices (Standards 6-10) Lifestyle (Standards 11-17) Personal and Healthcare Support (Standards 18-21) Concerns, Complaints and Protection (Standards 22-23) Environment (Standards 24-30) Staffing (Standards 31-36) Conduct and Management of the Home (Standards 37 – 43) Scoring of Outcomes Statutory Requirements Identified During the Inspection Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 8 Choice of Home The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 5 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 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): 2,3 and 5 Quality in this outcome area is excellent. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered during the visit to this service. Service users have been supported to have their assessments updated so the home fully understands and can meet their individual needs. Contracts between the home and the service users are fully completed. EVIDENCE: The inspector looked at four service user case notes. They each have comprehensive assessments prepared by the home that look at all aspects of their physical, social, cultural and emotional needs. These assessments are completed to a high standard and reflect the detailed knowledge the staff have of the service users individual needs. These assessments have been updated in the last six months. In addition each service user has a life history in place, which includes information about their family. This provides valuable information for staff to enable a holistic view of each individual to be understood. The four case records also contained costed and signed contracts between the home and the service user. This contract clearly specifies the terms and conditions of the home including the notice period. Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 9 The inspector observed that the staff were supporting the service users in an appropriate manner that reflected their knowledge and understanding of their individual needs. The service users were also observed to be comfortable and relaxed within their home environment. Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 10 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): 6,7,8 and 9 Quality in this outcome area is excellent. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered during the visit to this service. Service users are each supported to have comprehensive individual care plans and risk assessments and are working towards clearly defined goals agreed in partnership with families and other care professionals. Service users are supported to make decisions about their daily lives within the home and service user meetings take place regularly. EVIDENCE: Four service user case notes were inspected. Each service user has detailed individual care plans. These reflect the decisions made at each service users review meeting where they are supported to make decisions about their personal goals. These meetings take place with the care manager approximately once a year and there is also a review meeting arranged by the home on a six monthly basis. These review meetings were clearly recorded and demonstrated multi-disciplinary working. The care plan goals are divided into short and long term goals. These are clear and easy to understand and are monitored on a monthly basis. These goals Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 11 focus on supporting the service users to gain greater independence and to look a how their lives can be further enhanced by improved activities or by addressing healthcare or behavioural issues. The four service users all had a named key worker and they are involved in maintaining the care planning documentation. The four service users whose case notes were inspected all have complex behaviours. Each service user has a document describing these behaviours and this enables the staff to identify when the service user is distressed and what action they should take in response to this situation. These guidelines are reviewed on a monthly basis. Some of the service users have restrictions in place, for example one service user keeps his cigarettes in the office and some service users need to have the front door secured so they cannot wander out the house. The reasons for these restrictions are recorded in their care plan, risk assessment and behavioural guidelines. Each service user has a record of the individual arrangements in place to support them to manage their personal finances. The four service user case notes inspected all included comprehensive individual risk assessments covering all areas of potential risk and this identified what action the home would take in response to the identified risks whilst at the same time promoting each service users independence. These covered a number of areas including securing the front door, accessing the community, safety during food preparation and mealtimes and bathing for example. Throughout the inspection the service uses were observed being consulted about decisions concerning their daily lives. This included being asked what they wanted to drink and when they felt ready to go out. One service user was able to choose to leave the house early and buy a newspaper on the way to his day service. The record of the service user meetings was inspected. These took place on a regular monthly basis and discussed activities, holidays and things that were happening in the home.

Four service users go to day resources provided by social services or the voluntary sector and three service users access a day service arranged by Millenium Care that incorporates access to college courses. The leisure activities offered to the service users include going to the local Gateway club and enjoying a visit to the pub on a Friday evening. In addition other activities both inside and outside the home include picnics, cookery, Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 13 helping in the garden and having a hand massage. Each service user has a daily activity record and four were inspected and these showed that the service users were enjoying an active lifestyle and being supported to access local community resources. They also show that service users are active within the home and are being supported to develop their independent living skills. The manager explained that two of the service users enjoy going to church each week and two others choose to go on an occasional basis. Three service users have recently enjoyed a break at Eurodisney and plans are being made for the whole group to have a holiday. The manager explained that all the service users have contact with their families and friends. They are made welcome in the home or service users are supported to go to their family homes. It was observed that there was a friendly atmosphere in the home with the staff chatting to the service users. The service users were observed to be very relaxed with the staff. The manager explained that the routine at the weekend is far more relaxed and some of the service users enjoy a lie in after a busy week. The menu for the week was inspected and this offered a healthy and varied diet. The manager explained that two of the service users are supported to have their food finely chopped and they all follow a healthy eating plan. The inspector looked at the record of food provided and this reflected the menu. In addition if service users wish to have an alternative then this is also recorded and it was seen that another option is provided as required. Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 14 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 excellent. This judgement has been made from evidence gathered during the visit to this service. Service users are supported to receive personal care according to their individual needs and wishes. Service users are supported to access healthcare services based on their requirements. Service users have their safety maintained by appropriate medication administration procedures. EVIDENCE: It was observed during the inspection that the service users were given support with their personal care based on their individual needs. Some just need prompting whilst others need individual support. The service users were all very well dressed and groomed. The healthcare records were inspected for four service users. They had all been supported to access the GP, dentist, optician and chiropodist for their primary healthcare checks. They all see the consultant psychiatrist on a regular basis. In addition service users attend outpatient appointments for their specialist healthcare needs and it is also positive to note that a number of other therapy services including psychology and speech and language therapy have been accessed as required for specialist advice. Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 15 The medication systems in the home were inspected. The home uses the Lloyds pharmacy blister pack system. The medication was appropriately stored and the temperature of the medication cupboard was recorded daily. The medication administration records were completed correctly. The medication entering the home is recorded appropriately on the medication administration record. There is a separate record for medication returned to the pharmacist. Some of the service users have PRN medication and there are guidelines in place for them explaining when the medication should be administered. Training records were inspected for four members of staff and they had all received medication training in January 2004. The manager explained that a training update was being arranged and it is recommended that this takes place as soon as possible as it is over two years since some of the staff received the training. Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 16 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.

Service users can be confident that they will protected by a well trained staff team and robust adult protection procedures. Some staff need their adult protection training updated. EVIDENCE: The manager explained that the home has not received any complaints since the previous inspection. The inspector looked at the complaints record and was satisfied that previous complaints had been addressed appropriately. The staff training records were inspected for four members of staff. These indicated that two of the staff had not received training on adult protection since 2003. It is required that where staff have not received this training for over two years that the training is updated. The staff training records did however show that all the staff had received NAPPI training in January 2006 to ensure the staff understand how to work positively with service users who have complex challenging behaviours. The inspector looked at the personal finances for two service users. They each have a building society account and their DLA is paid directly into this account. Their corporate appointee pays their personal allowance into the building society account. This arrangement was hard to follow as the corporate appointee was removing the £10 a week contribution that each service user makes towards transport from their mobility allowance from the personal allowance. It is recommended that the arrangements for service users to pay towards transport is reviewed to ensure that there is a clear record of each Millenium Care (Fox Lane) DS0000010632.V292057.R01.S.doc Version 5.1 Page 17 service user receiving their personal allowance. The record of all other expenditure is clear and where expenditure has occurred this is recorded and receipts are obtained.
