What the care home does well

Prospective new residents are assessed in their current surroundings to make sure that the home is able to meet their needs. Care plans clearly describe how resident needs are to be met and a care plan is written where a need is identified. Arrangements are made to discuss care plans with residents in their own language. This ensures that staff know how to meet residents` needs. Staff will contact healthcare professionals to see to the healthcare needs of residents and their health is monitored through observation and regular health checks. Medication is given out following the recommended safe procedures to make sure that residents are not put at risk when being given their medication. Staff are trained to respect the privacy and dignity of residents and know good practices for doing this. This ensures that residents` privacy and dignity are promoted. Residents are able to take part in a variety of activities, which are representative of both British and Asian cultures. There are regular opportunities for residents to observe their religious beliefs within the home and at places of worship.Routines in the home are flexible to take into account the wishes of the residents, including how and where they spend their time so residents retain control over their lives. Catering arrangements within the home are organised to meet the needs of Asian and British residents by having two separate kitchens and menus. There is always at least 3 care staff and a nurse on duty during the day and regular training is provided. There is always someone on duty who can speak the residents first language. New staff can only start work when the required checks have been carried out, including a satisfactory Criminal Records Bureau or Protection of Vulnerable Adults check. Regular checks and tests are carried out on the building and equipment to protect the health and safety of residents.

What has improved since the last inspection?

No requirements were set at the last visit.

What the care home could do better:

Records of any complaints made about the home must be kept on the premises. Staff must be aware of the terminology used in safeguarding adults so they understand the use of the procedures. There are areas of the home that are in need of redecoration and some carpets need to be replaced to make it more homely for residents to live in. There home must be managed by a registered manager so here are clear lines of accountability.

This was the first visit to the home since 1st April 2007 by The Commission for Social Care Inspection. Prior to the visit an analysis of the home was undertaken from information gathered over the last year. The visit centred on looking at the key National Minimum Standards for older people. The site visit lasted for 5 hours and the main method of inspection used was called case tracking which involved selecting 3 residents and tracking the care they receive through the checking of their records and discussing this with them. Other residents were spoken with and additional records were seen. A discussion was had with the acting manager, senior care staff, the duty nurse, staff on duty and care practices were observed. The premises were not inspected in detail but various areas of the home were visited as part of the inspection. What the service does well: Prospective new residents are assessed in their current surroundings to make sure that the home is able to meet their needs. Care plans clearly describe how resident needs are to be met and a care plan is written where a need is identified. Arrangements are made to discuss care plans with residents in their own language. This ensures that staff know how to meet residents’ needs. Staff will contact healthcare professionals to see to the healthcare needs of residents and their health is monitored through observation and regular health checks. Medication is given out following the recommended safe procedures to make sure that residents are not put at risk when being given their medication. Staff are trained to respect the privacy and dignity of residents and know good practices for doing this. This ensures that residents’ privacy and dignity are promoted. Residents are able to take part in a variety of activities, which are representative of both British and Asian cultures. There are regular opportunities for residents to observe their religious beliefs within the home and at places of worship.

Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Each service user has a written contract/ statement of terms and conditions with the home. No service user moves into the home without having had his/her needs assessed and been assured that these will be met. Service users and their representatives know that the home they enter will meet their needs. Prospective service users and their relatives and friends have an opportunity to visit and assess the quality, facilities and suitability of the home. Service users assessed and referred solely for intermediate care are helped to maximise their independence and return home. The Commission considers Standards 3 and 6 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 3 and 6 People who use the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. New residents are fully assessed prior to moving into the home to ensure that their needs can be met. The home does not offer an intermediate care service. EVIDENCE: A care file for a recently admitted resident was seen and this contained a pre admission assessment, which was dated 2 days prior to the resident moving into the home. There was also an admission checklist in the front of the file confirming when each part of the admission procedure had been completed. The information gathered in the pre admission assessment covered a variety of needs including moving and handling. The acting manager said that she goes out to assess any prospective resident to see if their needs can be met within the home. The acting manager said she DS0000064260.V349058.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 contacts the prospective resident’s family and social worker. The acting manager said she had been out to assess four prospective residents since she took up post.

There were references seen in care plans to maintaining choice and promoting privacy and dignity. The acting manager said that the nurses put the care plans together and that she caries out a final check on them. The acting manager said that she discusses care plans with the residents with assistance from a member of staff who speaks their language. Staff said they will check any information out with the nurse on duty and they refer to care plans to find things out and see if there have been any changes. A resident told a member of staff who translated into English that staff talk to her about the care she receives and that she has a bath every Sunday and Thursday, which is when she wants to have them.

Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission consider all the above are key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 27, 28, 29 and 30 People who use the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. There are sufficient and suitably trained staff employed at the home, ensuring that residents needs can be met. Residents are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. EVIDENCE: The acting manager has assessed the minimum staffing levels to be 4 care staff and a nurse in the morning, 3 care staff and a nurse in the afternoon and 2 care staff and a nurse overnight. In addition the home employs kitchen staff, handyman/gardener, activities coordinators and housekeepers. The provider employs male and female staff and they are of varying ages and from differing ethnic backgrounds. The acting manager said due to the number of different languages spoken in the home it is not possible for staff to speak all of these, but when planning the rota she ensures that there is always someone on duty that speaks the same language of each resident. The acting manager and senior care said which staff are able to speak which language and how they are then deployed to achieve this. DS0000064260.V349058.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Staff said that they felt there were enough staff on duty for them to complete their duties appropriately.

Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. 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 and staff are promoted and protected.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31, 33, 35 and 38 People who use the service experience adequate quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. There is a lack of accountability due to not having a registered manager. EVIDENCE: There has not been a registered manager at the home for a long time, however the acting manager took up post in August 2007 and said she is in the process of completing the application form to become the registered manager. The acting manager has over 8 years experience and is currently working toward national Vocational Qualification level 4.

No STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS This section sets out the actions, which must be taken so that the registered person/s meets the Care Standards Act 2000, Care Homes Regulations 2001 and the National Minimum Standards. The Registered Provider(s) must comply with the given timescales. No. 1 2 Standard OP16 OP18 Regulation 17(2) 13(6) Requirement Timescale for action 01/12/07 3 OP19 23(2)(b) 4 OP31 18(1)(a) Records of any complaints made about the home must be kept on the premises. All staff must be familiar with the 01/12/07 procedures to follow to safeguard residents if there is any suspicion of abuse. This will ensure that staff know how to protect residents. There are areas of the home that 01/08/08 are in need of redecoration and some carpets need to be replaced to make it more homely for residents to live in.
