What has improved since the last inspection?

Care plans have improved and are more personalised to the individual. A quality assurance and quality monitoring system has been developed and implemented and an analysis undertaken of the results. The strip lighting within the home has commenced to be changed to be of domestic in character. The home is continuing to work towards the 50% ratio of NVQ level 2 qualified staff. Records of fire training and fire drills have improved. Building works have been completed which now allows residents access to all areas of the home. Residents previously had to be mobile to access some areas. There is a newly developed staff photo board near the entrance at the home that has photos of staff and their position within the home.

What the care home could do better:

All staff commencing employment at the home must have at least a Protection of Vulnerable Adults (POVA) check undertaken and work supervised until a full enhanced CRB is returned to ensure residents are safeguarded. Hot and cold water taps need to be clearly identifiable to reduce confusion for residents and staff. Clearer documentation on monitoring charts needs to be maintained to evidence that assessed needs are being met. PRN medications need to be clearly identified and hand written MAR charts should be double signed to reduce the risk of errors occurring.

This new format is more personalised to the individual. There is a front page in the care plans that provide a quick clear overview of the resident’s needs. Eg. whether dentures, hearing aids, glasses are worn, food likes/dislikes, if plate guards are used to promote independence when eating, whether the resident smoke etc. There was evidence that care plans are being reviewed on a monthly basis. It was noted that turning charts were not being used effectively. (Turning charts - used for people who have limited movement and are at risk of developing pressure areas.)

A resident spoken to who had strip lighting in their room confirmed that they were not concerned about the strip lighting. This outstanding requirement has been lowered to a good practice recommendation. The home was found to be comfortably warm during the inspection.
