Annual Service Review Page 3 of 5 Service update since the last key inspection or annual service review:
What did we do for this annual service review? The last key inspection was carried out on 22nd June 2007. The home was awarded a Three star- (excellent) quality rating following the inspection. We completed an annual service review on 27th May 2008 and will undertake a key inspection by 22nd June 2010. We looked at all the information that we have received, or asked for, since the last key inspection or annual service review. This included: The annual quality assurance assessment that was sent to us in April 2009. The AQAA is a self-assessment that focuses on how well outcomes are being met for people using the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. The feedback that we received from five people that use the service and two relatives. What has this told us about the service? The home sent us their annual quality assurance assessment when we asked for it. It was completed in full and contained detailed information about the service. The manager told us what the home does well and about the work he was planning to undertake to improve the service. Service users were supported to complete a survey by people that were not connected with the service. Service users said they could usually make decisions about what they did each day and said staff listen to their views and act on what they say. Some people said they liked living in the home because they could spend time with their friends. We received written feedback about the home from two relatives. They told us the home was able to meet their family members needs and was particularly good at looking after peoples physical needs. Service users and relatives said the home was always clean and fresh. The home had not received any complaints in the past year and we have not received any concerns about the service. We believe the home still provides excellent outcomes for people that use the service. What are we going to do as a result of this annual service review? We are not going to change our inspection plan, and will do a key inspection by 22nd June 2010. However we can inspect the service at any time if we have concerns about the quality of the service or the safety of the people using the service. Annual Service Review Page 4 of 5 Reader Information
