What the care home does well

A social worker visiting the home gave praise to the service provider and staff regarding the care of people with complex needs. It was stated by the social worker that there is an atmosphere of combined warmth and set boundaries. It was felt that the ethos provides reassurance and easy communications for the residents. Residents comments were positive about the levels of support and their ability maintain their independence.

What has improved since the last inspection?

Since the last inspection, the service provider has taken steps to maintain the environment in good repair. Baths and toilets were replaced and a sharing room will be converted into single occupancy. Following consultation with the Local Authority Commissioners and Purchasers, members of staff will be attending challenging behaviour training. This training will enable members of staff to develop skills to address potentially aggressive and violent situations.

What the care home could do better:

Five requirements are outstanding from the last inspection and urgent action must be taken to meet these requirements. Failure to comply may lead to enforcement action. The service provider must develop the care planning process to adopt a person centred approach to meeting needs. In terms of meeting resident`s mental health care needs, care plans must incorporate triggers of deterioration along with the actions to be taken. Where residents are subject to section under the Mental Health Act, care plans must be specific about the section and implications for the home. Reactive strategies must be developed for residents that misuse drugs and alcohol to ensure staff are guided to handle these situations. Complaints and Adult Protection policies and procedures must be developed to ensure that the people for whom it is indented can understand them. Additionally, procedures must be kept under review to ensure they meet good practice guidelines. Recruitment procedures must be improved, including the prompt obtaining of criminal records checks, so that it protects vulnerable adults Fire safety checks and practices must be conducted at the stipulated frequencies to promote the safety of the residents and staff at the home.

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 There is a clear procedure for admission at the home. EVIDENCE: An Admission and Emergency procedure is in place and incorporates the accommodation that can be offered under the Mental Health Act. Within the Statement of Purpose the admission criteria lists the specific statuses under the Mental Health Act that can be accommodated at the home.

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 & 9 Home’s care plans must be more specific about meeting assessed needs in a person centred approach. Residents must sign their care plans to evidence their awareness and summaries must be more detailed about the progress of the care plan. Triggers of a deteriorating mental health and the actions to be taken must be incorporated into the care plans with any restrictions imposed. Reactive strategies must be developed for residents that misuse drugs and alcohol and include restrictions imposed. Action plans must therefore be specific to ensure staff are guided to manage these situations. Risk assessments must be reviewed to ensure action plans are appropriate to the level of risk identified. EVIDENCE: Individual Care Programme Approach (ICPA) meetings are organised annually, with the psychiatrist, resident, care manager and other agencies present. Residents were allocated a care coordinator, which organises ICPA. From the meetings an enhanced care plan is sent to the home. While the home develops care plans, action plans must be amended following the review meetings. Home’s care plans must be specific about meetings residents needs, and must incorporate the person’s likes, dislikes and preferred routines. Rosemary Residential Care Home DS0000026565.V304473.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Monthly summaries are complied and briefly state the effectiveness of the care plan. In terms of the resident’s mental health care needs, care plans must describe the triggers of deterioration and the actions to be taken by the members of staff. For residents under section care plans must describe the actions to be taken for breeches of conditions including restrictions imposed. It is evident from the case records that a number of residents have restriction orders imposed. Care plans must be clear about the restrictions imposed, with the actions to be taken for breeches of restriction orders. Additionally there are a significant number of residents that abuse drugs and alcohol, reactive strategies must be specific about the staff’s actions whenever residents use illegal substances and alcohol. Members of staff must be sufficiently guided to manage these situations. Running reports are compiled by the staff on duty and describe the outcome of visits, observations of the residents and general information about their day. From the reports is evident that residents make decisions about their day. For example, times to rise, times to retire and daily activities. Members of staff stated that they have access to care plans and make entries in residents daily reports. Residents consulted confirmed that they participate in ICPA meetings. Two residents are restricted from entering local shops and pubs because of inappropriate behaviour. Knives are locked away at night to prevent residents from using utensils inappropriately. It was understood from the service provider that the residents currently accommodated are able to make their own decisions. Risk assessments are in place for activities that may involve an element of risk. However, the assessments require reviewing to ensure that they remain appropriate to the level of risks. The home maintains an accident book for staff and residents. There were no recorded accidents since the last inspection.

The property retains its domestic appearance, blending with its immediate environment. It was understood from the service provider that since the last inspection, the bats were replaced and the upstairs bathroom was refurbished. The damp in the downstairs en-suite bedroom is being addressed and once the problem is resolved, the sharing room will become single occupancy. During the tour of the premises, it was noted that the window in the downstairs bathroom is in need remedial action. With one exception, bedrooms are arranged into singe occupancy. Residents bedrooms were found to contain a combination of the home’s furniture and personal belongings. Residents confirmed that keys to bedrooms are provided.

The laundry room is adjacent to the kitchen; it has a tiled floor and walls for easy cleaning. The washing machine and tumble dryer are domestic in size and recently replaced. Rosemary Residential Care Home DS0000026565.V304473.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 well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 32, 34 and 35 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 34 & 35 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. Urgent action needs to be taken to ensure that recruitment procedures are more robust so that it protects vulnerable adults. Steps are taken to ensure staff have the skills to meet residents changing needs. A training programme must be developed to ensure staff undertake appropriate training. EVIDENCE: Five members of staff were recruited through an overseas agency and application forms, two written references and police clearance are kept in their personnel files. From the examination of the records, one member of staff is without a CRB disclosure. The Department of Health “allows applicants who have applied for a CRB check, to start work as a care worker under supervision if they are not on the Protection of Vulnerable Adults (POVA) list.” For this person to continue working at the home, POVA first checks must be conducted and must be supervised while the CRB checks are in progress. This is a matter of serious concern and urgent action must now be taken by the service provider to ensure that CRB are obtained. Rosemary Residential Care Home DS0000026565.V304473.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 The service provider stated that the homes routines and the ethos of the home are discussed with new staff.

Members of staff from overseas would like to convert their nurse qualifications in the near future and will be discussing this with the service provider. Other staff are undertaking NVQ level 2 qualification and their assessors visit monthly.
