This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. This was the first unannounced inspection of the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) year April 2006 to 2007 using the new ‘Inspecting for Better Lives’ (IBL) process. Lead Regulation Inspector Cathy Clarke was assisted throughout the inspection by Mrs Rosalyn Gaye Hampson registered manager and Amanda Gilbert deputy manager representing the establishment. The IBL process involves a pre-inspection assessment of service information from a variety of sources initially helping to prioritise the order of inspections and identify areas that require more attention during the inspection process. A new Inspection record is compiled from details received from a preinspection questionnaire from the home and notifications of significant events known as regulation 37. Comments and complaints received and previous inspection reports are all considered for inclusion prior to the inspection visit. For more details of ‘IBL’ please visit the Commission for Social Care Website details can be found on the last page this Inspection report. The inspector was with staff and residents at Redwood for a period of 8 hrs. This time was spent sampling resident’s care need assessments, care plans, medication processes, contracts, and talking to residents and staff. Staff files were inspected for evidence of good practice in the following areas: recruitment, allocation of staff skills, daily rotas and training. Service users prefer to be known as residents and will be referred to as such throughout this report. The cost of services range from 695.00 per week for continuing care to £823.00 and these fees are reviewed on an annual basis. Not included in these costs are personal items such as: toiletries, social activities, hairdressing, and dry cleaning. The inspector would like to thank the manager, deputy manager and staff of Redwood for the hospitality shown during the inspection. What the service does well:
The manager and staff work well together and contribute to maintaining the independence of residents. The service responds quickly to regulatory requirements and works positively with the Commission for Social Care Inspection. Redwood Care Centre DS0000059510.V308303.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 The following are comments received from service users and their family in the form of letters or cards: “We the family would like to thank you and your staff for the care you gave to our mother during her stay we did appreciate it”. “Thank you so much for the care you showed my mother during the eight days she was in your care”. “She felt so ill and tired but I know you did what you could for her”. “Thank you from family for the care given to (B) he was always very content whilst in your care”. “Thank you and gratitude and appreciation from the family concerning the very kind and dignified way you all have shown in nursing our mum”. “She has come on leaps and bounds and we are sure it has been your patience and kindness”. “The staff and doctors have achieved such a good recovery for her”. What has improved since the last inspection?
Improvements since the last inspection include: • • • • • All requirements from the previous inspection have been met. The computerised system for care planning and the recording of data for each individual resident has now been fully implemented. The service has an activities co-ordinator from Monday-Friday and at weekends when organised events are on. A manual handling train the trainer course has been provided for the activities co-ordinator and she provides in-house training for all staff. The home has held a jumble sale, and summer fete, and they are getting some gardening done for residents. An area has been dug over in the middle of the garden for vegetables. Training and development has improved and an annual training plan is in place. The conference room has been set up with all of the required training equipment. Training needs analysis is being undertaken for all staff and this informs the training plan. The staff team is starting to gel more and team building has been key in achieving this aim. • • What they could do better:
Staff must sign medication records at the time of administration. The GP must sign any dosage changes made to medication.
Redwood Care Centre DS0000059510.V308303.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 7 Although residents do not access the sink in the bathroom and toilet it must be adjusted to 43 degrees to ensure safety.

Service users feel they are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. Service users are assured that at the time of their death, staff will treat them and their family with care, sensitivity and respect.

Residents spoken to were happy in the home and felt that they were treated with respect. EVIDENCE: Each resident has what is called “Resident of the Day” where his or her temperature, pulse, blood Pressure, urine, and weight is recorded on a monthly basis. The registered manager informed the inspector that the Waterlow scoring system (for measuring tissue viability and used to assess the level of risk of residents forming pressure sores) on the nursing units is the computerised system as this follows the correct format. A paper system is used on the
Redwood Care Centre DS0000059510.V308303.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 assessment units. Risk assessments are in place for residents and stored on the database. A daily diary note is kept for each resident; this identifies care provided, any changes and the name of staff making each entry is recorded on the database. The home works closely with local health and social care facilities including, the Health Protection Agency, Environmental Health, Surrey County Council, Local GPs, Opticians, Chiropodists, and District Nurses. They also have contact with the Tissue Viability Nurse, Respiratory Nurse, Continence Nurse, Diabetic Nurse, Urology Nurse and a Nurse Assessor. The home works with three Physiotherapists an Occupational Therapist and the Intermediate Care Liaison officer who are all based in the service. Discussion was held with one of the physiotherapists and a care support worker on strategies used to maintain the independence of residents. Medication is stored in two parts of the home in medication rooms. Medicines are stored in either a trolley or in the controlled drugs cabinet. On the day of inspection it was the changeover day and the deputy manager was auditing drugs and medication practices. Two drugs charts sampled were missing signatures and the deputy manager had contacted the staff member concerned to discuss the reasons for the error. There is a list at the front of the MAR charts identifying the staff on duty so that they can easily be identified. Controlled drugs medication administration records were checked and tablets counted as correct. Medication records for nursing care units were checked as correct. Drugs were being administered to residents at the time of the inspection sampling exercise. The deputy manager counted medicines as correct at the time of inspection. A Community Pharmacist has visited the home on 26th July 2006 to undertake an audit of medication practices. The report highlighted a need for the GP to sign any dosage changes made. A number of residents were spoken to during the inspection and all had enjoyed their stay. One resident who had lost her confidence following a fall at home was much more positive in her outlook after a period on the intermediate care unit and was looking forward to going back home soon. Another felt that she was gradually getting better. Other residents had enjoyed their stay and stated that they were well looked after and that staff were lovely.
