What the care home does well

The home continues to provide a warm comfortable place to live where people who use the service said to us that they live like a family. Throughout the time we spent with staff and people who use the service positive interaction was observed to be taking place in the home. People who use the service themselves were observed to be relaxed and comfortable in the presence of staff with warm exchanges and jovial banter taking place. People using the service told us they were well cared for and if they were unhappy about something they knew who to talk to. Individual accommodation is located at ground and first floor. We went to see bedrooms with people who use the service; these are homely and well maintained. Individual space is personalised, which reflects the personality of the person occupying the room. The home has a Statement of Purpose and Service Users Guide that provide information to prospective people who use the service and their relatives about the service the home is able to offer. People who use the service have a full assessment of their needs carried out prior to admission to ensure their needs can be met at Roughcote Hall Farm. Arrangements are in place for meeting the health and personal care needs of individuals and details are recorded in care records. A variety of social opportunities are available for individuals both at day placements and at home. There was a person at the home from the `Mencap Visiting Service`. This person was helping a person using the service to write a letter. The proprietor and her husband continue to live on site and provide two persons on call at night.Staffs at the home have good relationships with people who use the service and we observed positive interaction with individuals responding well to staff. We made observations of individuals being consulted and listened to throughout the visit. As at the previous inspection visit the stability of the staff team provides consistency of care for the people using the service. The staff spoken with demonstrated a good understanding of the people using the service`s needs and family support networks. The home is set in a peaceful rural location. There are extensive grounds, which the service users are able to safely access and were observed doing so today.

What has improved since the last inspection?

Overall documentation has improved with more detailed care plans in place, which enables the staff to have the information they require to meet people`s needs. Statutory reports and certificates are now appropriately filed and can be found. This means that the home can more easily provide evidence that they are maintaining the Health and Safety of the home and the people using the service.

What the care home could do better:

The Home needs to include fees in the Service User Guide, so that people using the service have the information they need. The Home may wish to consider providing paper towels in the ground floor communal toilet, to promote better hygiene. The complaints procedure could be developed in pictorial form and enlarged print to enable better understanding for the people using the service. .

Completion of the AQAA is a legal requirement and it enables the service to undertake a self-assessment, which focuses on how well outcomes are being met for people using the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. We also received “Have your Say” surveys from six people using the service. All told us that they had contracts and had received information about the home prior to coming to live here. One told us, “I’m allowed to keep my guinea pig in the shed”, “We like to go to the pub on Saturdays and shopping”, “Lovely and clean my bedroom is”, “I like the meals at the home very much”, “The home is spotless”.
