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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1&2 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The inspector is satisfied that the home is able to meet service users needs in line with the homes Statement of Purpose. EVIDENCE: The home’s statement of purpose covers the aims and objectives of the home, and the additional aspects as listed in Schedule 1 of The Care Homes Regulations 2001. There is a service user guide in place; the previous inspection noted that the document required further amendment as it does not indicate that complaints can made to outside agencies such as social services or to the commission directly. The acting manager provide the inspector with copies that belonged to service users that still indicate that the complaint must go through the organisational procedure in the first instance. It therefore remains s an outstanding requirement that the registered manager must ensure that the complaints procedure in the service user guide be amended as stated in this report. This requirement will be reinstated with a new timescale for compliance. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 8 There have been no new admissions to the home since the previous inspection. The inspector is satisfied that service users are admitted only after a full assessment has been undertaken. Following assessment the service users care plans are developed. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6,7 & 9 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The inspector believes that staff are aware of service users support needs in line with assessed needs and how those needs such be met. The inspector is satisfied that service users are supported to make day-to-day decisions when needed. EVIDENCE: The inspector viewed three service user files during the inspection. Each file examined contained service user basic information that contained all the personal information as stated in Schedule 3 of the Care Homes Regulations. Files contain a photograph of the service user and basic information profiles. Service user individual plans highlight the issues/needs, the aims and actions. Identified needs are highlighted covering daily living skills, personal care, activities, religion and health. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 the tracking of care it was noted plans clearly reflected the individual service users needs. For example one plan was very clear about how to provide personal care even indicating what products to be used. The mobility care plan stated what equipment was to used and made reference to the risk assessment in place. The inspector cross reference two service users care plans and the monitoring that was required, one was in regard to weight and another was in regard to food and fluid intake. Monitoring records were in place and up to date. Risk assessments were seen on the individual service user files inspected. The assessments highlight the risk, which assess whether the activity should be considered .The risk assessments also highlight what action to be taken. The inspector was satisfied that the care plans are developed to minimise risk without imposing inappropriate restrictions on the service users. Through observations made during the inspection and discussions with staff there was evidence that service users have control over their daily lives. For example service users are able to get up and go to bed when they choose, and choose their own clothes to wear, and are involved in making decisions through the weekly house meetings. Service users are heavily involved in the day-to-day running of the home. For example, service users are supported by staff to cook each week for all the service users Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Lifestyle The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The inspector continues to be satisfied that staff provide service users with support to make choices and provide them the opportunity to undertake a wide range of activities both inside and outside the home. EVIDENCE: This care home is an orthodox Jewish home and all service users are from orthodox Jewish families. The home is culturally appropriate to the needs of the service users. The ethos of the home is to promote all the service users to be independent and to maintain and develop their social and daily living skills. The inspector continues to be satisfied through observations made during the inspection that staff encourage service users to be involved with many activities and organisations outside the home. For example the service users daily records clearly indicated that service users attended trips to the theatre, visited family, and were escorted on shopping trips. Extra staff are on duty to support the trips out. As highlighted in previous inspection this continues to be one of the homes strengths. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 On the day of inspection service users were escorted on shopping trips for new clothes for ‘Passover’. During the inspection service user were receiving manicures, playing games and listening to music. Service users were active throughout the inspection and were being supported to prepare their individual bedrooms for ‘Passover’. Service users are also assisted to complete daily living tasks such as cleaning their own rooms, laundry tasks and cooking. Service users’ are fully involved in the day-to-day routines of the home as part of their identified care planning objectives and in relation to their learning disabilities. Service users are offered a key to their own bedroom, which can be locked. Through observation and discussion with staff, it was positive to note that daily routines and house rules do promote independence and individual choice for the service users. Staff were observed to communicate in a respectful and sensitive manner. There are three meals offered daily when service users are present in the home, with additional drinks and snacks. Menus are planned with the service users at the house meetings on Sundays. Menus were examined and found to be international, culturally appropriate and nutritious.

Milk and meat sections of the kitchen were clearly separated. Food stores were seen during the inspection all of which were clean and tidy and foods were appropriately stored. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 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. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18,19 & 20 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. It continues to be the inspector’s view that service users are well supported by staff to ensure that physical and emotional needs are met. The inspector noted that all medication records were deemed correct. EVIDENCE: The inspector was satisfied that staff are fully aware of service users’ needs and that appropriate referrals are made when required. Staff present at the time of inspection were able to inform the inspector of the health concerns of particular service users and were fully aware of the health professional involvement and how care was to be provided. Care plans indicate that service users are encouraged to manage their own personal care as much as possible, although staff will prompt and remind service users about personal care as appropriate. The inspector was satisfied through observations made that the service users continue to be supported to maintain their personal identity and choice. All service users were appropriately dressed on the day of inspection. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 There was evidence that service users personal needs are reassessed and changes in needs are clearly recorded on the service users individual plan of care with detailed information as to how those needs are to be met. The inspector was satisfied that staff are fully aware of service users’ needs and makes appropriate referrals when required.

The service user has suitable equipment in place to enable staff to meet her needs. The home has Health Action Plans for service users in place this provides a very clear picture for the service users health needs, what appointments have been undertaken and any issues that may need following up.

Staff have received Adult protection training and through discussions with staff they appeared to know how to respond correctly to allegations. EVIDENCE: There is a complaints procedure/policy in place.

Policies and procedures for dealing with allegations of abuse are in place. It also includes the procedure of responding to allegations or suspicions of abuse. Staff have received adult Abuse training within the LADAF induction programme.

The Commission considers Standards 24, and 30 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 24 & 30 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service.

Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. Service users benefit from clarity of staff roles and responsibilities. Service users are supported by competent and qualified staff. Service users are supported by an effective staff team. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Service users’ individual and joint needs are met by appropriately trained staff. Service users benefit from well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 32, 34 and 35 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 32,34, 35 & 36 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The inspector is satisfied that the home has a stable, experienced and effective staff team who work well together to provide an excellent level of care to service users. However the staff files must evidence all relevant pre employment checks have been completed appropriately. All staff must receive adequate supervision. EVIDENCE: Rotas indicated that staffing levels are satisfactory and there is sufficient staff on duty to meet the needs of the service users. The home has at least 3 members of staff on duty during the day. At nighttimes there is one waking night and one sleep-in. An on call rota is available for staff support. On the day of inspection there were five staff on duty to cover service user activities. Through observation and discussions with staff they demonstrated a good understanding of their roles and responsibilities and good knowledge around individual service users needs. Staff assist service users with domestic tasks in the home, dependant on their individual assessed need. Staff were observed throughout the inspection interacting with service users in a relaxed and Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 respectful manner, and there was evidence that good relationships have been built up with service users Minutes for staff meetings were seen, the content of the meeting was good an action plan recorded clearly stating who was responsible for each action. The head office deals with all recruitment and this is where the main personal files are stored. Two of the files for the most recently recruited staff were examined. One of the files only contained one reference. Another did not show evidence of the staff had right to work in this country. As such it remains an outstanding requirement that the registered manager must ensure that records for all employees comply with Regulation 17 and the accompanying Schedule of The Care Homes Regulations 2001. This matter must be addressed as a matter or urgency or the Commission will consider further action. Additionally there were no CRB certificates available for inspection. The organisation now uses an umbrella agency and only receives written confirmation that the CRB has been received. The inspector was informed that if there were any convictions recorded they would be informed. It is required that copies of Criminal Records Bureau checks are available for inspection and can be destroyed once they have been seen by the inspector. The acting manager discussed the on going training programme all staff are undertaking the LADAF Induction and Foundation course. Since the previous inspection staff have received the following training: Medication. Fire training. Challenging behaviour. Moving and handling for all staff was scheduled for the 22/03/07. The acting manager stated that the registered manager has all supervision records; these were made available for inspection by the head office. The staff supervision records provided were examined. There was evidence that the staff have supervision sessions set up in advance however there is a concern that this is not on a regular basis. None examined had received supervision at least six times in a year. For example one staff member was supervised in June and November 2006, another October and November 2006. The registered manager must ensure that all staff have regular, recorded supervision sessions at least six times a year. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Conduct and Management of the Home The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. Service users are confident their views underpin all self-monitoring, review and development by the home. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s policies and procedures. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users are promoted and protected. Service users benefit from competent and accountable management of the service. The Commission considers Standards 37, 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 37,39 & 42 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The inspector believes that the current management provides stability for staff, which in turn is providing a positive atmosphere within the home for service users. EVIDENCE: The registered manager has over twenty-two years experience in social care field. Previous work experience includes nursing, care of the elderly and therapeutic work. The registered manager has obtained the level 4 NVQ in Management and Care. At the time of this inspection the registered manager was acting up into another post. There is an acting manager in place who was able to assist with inspection. The organisation will need to inform the commission of the management situation for the coming months in writing. Queen Elizabeth Walk (57) DS0000010281.V333020.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 The acting manager talked through with the inspector the new systems being set up, such as the shift handover process and the expectation that whoever is the team leader will allocate tasks on each shift to individual staff so that there is a clear line of accountability. They are also about to introduce a new system of a key worker system. There will be two teams responsible for half the service users in the care home. This is to ensure that all staff have a wider knowledge of service users needs. The monthly-unannounced monitoring visits are untaken; copies are forwarded promptly to the Commission. Service users and staff meetings are being held and copies of the minutes were examined during the inspection. The following health and safety checks have been evidenced: Emergency lighting checked 31/01/07 Gas certificate was seen dated 18/07/06 valid for one year.
