What the care home does well

The manager and her staff are highly knowledgeable, experienced and well trained. The staff are well supported and in turn this gives all residents a good quality of support and care given. The team are very good at including people within the decision making of the home and actively try different ways in which to engage individuals who have difficulty in making their needs clear. Documentation and recording in general is to a good standard. Medication is well maintained and accounted for. All people have good access to other health professionals and the home keeps good partnerships with them. Families are encouraged to be part of their relatives lives and advocates are used if need be. A lot of information is available to the residents, staff and visitors, and comes in various forms of symbols, pictures and photographs to enable understanding and involvement. The home is clean, fresh, homely and comfortable for all of the residents. Braintree District Council had visited the home in April 2008 and had awarded the manager and her team with a Gold food hygiene award for giving excellent standard of food, hygiene and cleanliness. Compliments from relatives, stated that, `We are very pleased with the staff, they treat our relative as we would within our own home.` `The team do a great job.` `Our relative has been calm and articulate since living at Mirabaeu.` A comment from the Behavioural Advisory team, (from Essex County Council) stated that, `I have at all times found that the support provided by the manager and staff are well managed and professionally run.

They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People are confident that the care home can support them. This is because there is an accurate assessment of their needs that they, or people close to them, have been involved in. This tells the home all about them, what they hope for and want to achieve, and the support they need. People can decide whether the care home can meet their support and accommodation needs. This is because they, and people close to them, can visit the home and get full, clear, accurate and up to date information. If they decide to stay in the home they know about their rights and responsibilities because there is an easy to understand contract or statement of terms and conditions between the person and the care home that includes how much they will pay and what the home provides for the money. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. A clear and comprehensive assessment process assures people that their needs could be met prior to moving in their home. Evidence: We were informed by the manager and by looking through records that once a person is referred and has shown an interest in the home, a service user guide will be provided to them. (Additionally a statement of purpose can also be provided) The service user guide is a document that gives a quick snap shot of what the home and staff provides. The service user guide can also be provided in picture form, braille, large print and upon request different languages. Both these documents are annually reviewed and updated. By providing these documents it allows people to make a decision to see if the home can provide for their individual needs before any visits or admission are arranged. The statement of purpose is a more in-depth document produced by the manager that describes what people can expect the staff and home to provide. It includes information such as, aims and objectives, policies and procedures, Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 11 of 28 Evidence: services that are provided, care that can be provided, the number of staff they have and their qualifications, specialist services that may be provided, costs, contracts, complaints assessment process, hours of operation and general information about the organisation and Mirabeau care home. Once this information is given, then a date will be set for the manager or another qualified member of staff to carry out an assessment of need, with the individual and their representatives. As part of this process a number of visits will be arranged to the home so that the person can meet the other residents and the staff. They will also have the chance to see what the home is like, how many communal rooms are available, bathing, kitchen and laundry facilities, look at the garden and general things they would like to know before making a decision. It also gives the person a chance to sample the food provided and ask about any issues that are important to them. Just as important is that the person can see if the room they would be offered if accommodation were to be provided. By having the different types of visits as suggested by the manager, a person can get to explore the local area and sample what is provided within the local and wider community. The assessment process is recorded onto the managers assessment document, which is then kept and forms part of a persons care plan. Additionally if a person is to be funded through the local authority or health or primary care trust, then these agencies will also supply their own assessment to the manager upon referral. If they can do so, then a letter is written to the individual confirming this. These letters were evidenced within peoples care information looked at. We looked at the information of a new resident who has recently moved into the home. This information showed us that, good assessments and information about this individual were secured. The family and resident have been well informed and involved at each stage. Overall all documentation looked at, showed us that detailed and sufficient information is provided in both the statement of purpose and service users guide and described well all information that would be of benefit to all interested parties. We were told by a relative that, I had lots of visits to the home and was given plenty of information to enable us to make a decision. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 12 of 28 Individual needs and choices These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People’s needs and goals are met. The home has a plan of care that the person, or someone close to them, has been involved in making. People are able to make decisions about their life, including their finances, with support if they need it. This is because the staff promote their rights and choices. People are supported to take risks to enable them to stay independent. This is because the staff have appropriate information on which to base decisions. People are asked about, and are involved in, all aspects of life in the home. This is because the manager and staff offer them opportunities to participate in the day to day running of the home and enable them to influence key decisions. People are confident that the home handles information about them appropriately. This is because the home has clear policies and procedures that staff follow. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. People using the service can be confident that their identified needs will be met appropriately and that they will be able to live the lifestyle they choose. Evidence: All documentation held within peoples care files was regularly reviewed and the service has a clear planning process. Annually (or when needed) meetings are held with the person who receives the support, their representative, social workers and other agencies if appropriate. Looking at four of the residents care files, it showed us that, all pieces of important documentation were signed by the person in question as a way of showing their involvement and agreement of what had been recorded. Also well documented were peoples regular access to a wide range of support networks and access to a lifestyle of their choosing. This could include educational, leisure and social interests. Support included daily routines such as; skills used on a daily basis and within their home to maintain their rooms, laundry and various other home based tasks. Additionally people told us that they go out shopping with staff for food and help Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 13 of 28 Evidence: the best they can when meals and snacks are prepared. The four care plans looked at, were all very individualised and very specific to the person. All four care plans showed us that they had high support and complex needs, as a result all had detailed risk assessments and protocols for staff to use. The guidance and assessments, highlighted possible triggers, and how to respond to behaviour, shown at times of stress for these people. Through the risk assessment process, guidance went on to assess, what were the likelihood and consequences if behaviour escalated and how staff could possibly de-escalate it. It then suggested, what to do, if the behaviour continued, what outside agencies to be called and used. It included what medication prescribed for these episodes was to be used and what to record, who to inform and what pieces of documentation to be used, with each stage of this persons specific behaviour may take. Risk assessments for all, were concise, clear and reduced the risk for all individuals and for others who maybe involved and could also be at risk, as a consequence. Additionally, we were shown that staff had the training and experience necessary to maintain a safe working relationship with the people they support.

If they cannot manage their medicine, the care home supports them with it in a safe way. If people are approaching the end of their life, the care home will respect their choices and help them to feel comfortable and secure. They, and people close to them, are reassured that their death will be handled with sensitivity, dignity and respect, and take account of their spiritual and cultural wishes.

The manager has a good complaints procedure in place. There have been a number of complaints received by the home from neighbours however speaking with the manager at the time of this inspection they seemed to have been resolved as much as they can be at present. All complaints are recorded, maintained and outcomes recorded. Recently another professional (Consultant NHS) raised a safeguarding issue with the manager and safe guarding team in Essex. The manager had worked well with the safe guarding unit and had taken on board any requirements made by them. For example, although all staff have had training around protection of vulnerable adults, the safe guarding team has offered the team further training. However, communal areas could include clearer information of the contact names of the safeguarding unit and how to make a complaint, this would ensure that all people Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 19 of 28 Evidence: in contact with the service could access information more easily than at present. Staff spoken with showed us that, they are skilled, well trained and that attention is given to ensuring that people who live at Mirabeau receive a good quality of protection and that awareness has been raised. Advocacy services are used if the residents wish or if the management think that a situation requires their input.
