DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 5 SUMMARY
This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The focus of inspections undertaken by the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) is on outcomes for Service Users and their views of the service provided. This process considers the home’s capacity to meet regulatory requirements, minimum standards of practice, and focuses on aspects of service provision that need further development. The primary method of inspection used was ‘case tracking’ which involved selecting two service users and tracking the care they receive, a review of their records, discussions with the care staff and observation of care practices. The people who live at Southleigh have learning difficulties, some with additional physical disabilities or disabilities relating to their elderly status, for example dementia, and communication for some is difficult. Establishing that service users have choice and are helped to make informed decisions is dependent to a large extent on observations of staff actions, service users’ relationships with staff, and the quality of shared communication. Feedback obtained from service users in this report was mainly through observations of their relationships with staff and also through interpretations of their general levels of satisfaction with their routines. Discussions were held with the staff member in charge about the care of service users. Although this is the first inspection of the home under the company’s new limited name, Minster Pathways Ltd, the home’s operation has continued uninterrupted and with the same Registered Manager in post. Issues that were highlighted at the last inspection for action have been rechecked during this inspection and the home’s progress in resolving matters evaluated. What the service does well:
The admission and assessment procedure sets out a process that is suitably flexible and informative. There was an easy relaxed rapport noted between staff and Southleigh service users. The service users were at home on the inspection day and were relaxing doing puzzles, drawing or watching television. The Registered Manager follows a robust procedure for safe-keeping service users’ personal monies and bankbooks and for agreeing cash and receipts. Valuables such as bank books, passbooks, etc, are held in a secure locked facility. DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 Several of the service users currently at Southfield have needs for high levels of care and support from staff. The home has three carers and one senior staff member rostered on duty throughout daytime hours and two waking night staff. The Registered Manager confirmed that should the care needs of service users alter there would be additional staff brought in. The home has a monthly monitoring visit on behalf of the owners to check on operational standards. A maintenance man is employed to carry out minor repairs. The company has a training programme for all staff and the Registered Manager said that a plan for core training of staff has been set up. Two newly recruited staff have started their National Vocational Qualification Level 2 assessments. What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better:
There was no written evidence of professional guidance from an occupational therapist relating to the use of a reclining armchair and restraining lap strap that were being used for one service user. There was no written evidence that this equipment had been specifically recommended for use for the particular service user leaving a potential for physical injury. There also was no consent for this apparatus from care managers, health professional such as the GP or the family. By 1st September 2006 a written recommendation for the armchair and lap strap had been obtained retrospectively from a qualified
DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 7 occupational therapist and permission in writing from the family had been given. Following the inspection the Registered Manager has also sought consent for the equipment’s use from health professionals and the care manager. A care plan must be in place for the use of a recliner chair and restraining strap by a particular service user. The internal dividing wall between the ground floor shower room and bathroom continues to show wide symptoms of damp with the paintwork blistering. This is a health hazard to service users and was highlighted to the company in the last inspection report for urgent remedy. The Registered Manager said that only recently professional advice was obtained regarding this section of wall that is thought to require rebuilding work. The Registered Manager said that there has been no progress made in setting up a quality assurance and quality monitoring system review in the home that involves the responses of service users and other parties. This formal monitoring review should be undertaken as soon as practicable to establish a development plan for the home. Please contact the provider for advice of actions taken in response to this inspection.

The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 5 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Prospective users’ individual aspirations and needs are assessed. 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 and 5 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. The information available to prospective service users and their families is sufficient to judge the suitability of the home. Service user’s individual needs and goals are assessed prior to their admission. EVIDENCE: No new service users have recently been admitted to the home. Most of the service users have lived together for many years and have a family type relationship. The admission and assessment procedure sets out a process that is suitably flexible and informative and would enable prospective service users and their supporters to make an informed choice about the home. Both case files examined showed that contract/terms and conditions had been signed between the home and the service users and/or families. DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Individual Needs and Choices
The intended outcomes for Standards 6 – 10 are: 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 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 and 9 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. There has been good progress made in reviewing service users’ care plans that give clear guidance to staff on delivering personal care. There was however a failure to seek professional advice about specialist seating for one service user. EVIDENCE: Following the last inspection the Registered Manager has reviewed and revised care plans and risk assessments for all service users; from the two case files specifically checked it could be seen that these care plans had taken any identified risks into account and the resulting care plans gave clear guidance to staff about personal care tasks and support necessary for each person. The staff member in charge said that she had found the plans to be much improved and informative. There was however no written evidence of professional guidance from an occupational therapist relating to the use of a reclining armchair and restraining lap strap that were being used for one service user leaving a potential for physical injury. There also was no consent for this apparatus from care managers, health professional such as the GP, or the family. An
DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Immediate Requirement was made of the Registered Providers that evidence in writing be forwarded to the Commission for Social Care inspection by Friday 1st September 2006 that this equipment had been specifically recommended for use for the service user and that written consent for its use had been obtained from the service user’s health professionals, care manager and family. By 1st September 2006 a written recommendation for the armchair and lap strap had been obtained retrospectively from a qualified occupational therapist and permission in writing from the family had been given. Consent from the health professionals and the care manager has also been sought by the Registered Manager. A care plan must be in place for the use of the recliner chair and restraining strap. The service users were at home on the inspection day and were relaxing doing puzzles, drawing or watching television. Service users continue to go to day centres and one person helps at a local charity shop. Records kept of service users’ personal monies and bankbooks held for safekeeping were clear and cash and account totals agreed. There is a robust system for receipting each entry that gives protection to each individual. The Registered Manager stated that valuables held by the home for safe-keeping for service users such as bank passbooks and individual’s passports are now held in a secure locked facility. Observations showed that relationships between staff and service users are warm and enabling and individuals are valued in their own right. Service users’ self-esteem is recognized as an important aspect of care and is promoted. DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Lifestyle
The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. Service users have opportunities for personal development.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12,13,15,16 and 17 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Service users are helped to maintain ordinary lifestyles by staff and continue to attend day centres and work opportunities according to their varying abilities. EVIDENCE: Service users are supported to continue with day centres, work at a local craft workshop, Teamwork, etc. Several service users are now ageing and have a physical disability that restricts full participation in the community and spend time at the home in quieter activities such as television, puzzles, etc. The Registered Manager said that recently one of the more elderly service users had visited a local forest and had enjoyed the overhead walkway. Relationships with family members are good; records and staff confirm that individual service users have regular contact with their family both visiting and taking people out for trips. One family have decorated a bedroom in the home for a specific service user.
DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 Daily routines fit around service users’ needs with people rising late if they wish and going out individually with staff for personal shopping. Staff talk to and interact with service users and rapport is good. Following the last inspection, menu plans now show the meals planned and details any alternative food given to specific service users. One service user has a separate range of meals due to a food intolerance. DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Personal and Healthcare Support

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18,19,20 and 21 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Appropriate personal and healthcare support is given to service users. EVIDENCE: The range of service user care needs has clearly extended due to the ageing of people at the home in addition to their original conditions of learning disabilities. The staff and manager are dedicated to maintaining long-term placements for service users however the extent to which the home can do this should be regularly reviewed and considered. In recent months staff at the home were able to provide support and dignity to an elderly service user through a deteriorating terminal illness. Service users have wheelchairs and walking aids where needed to maintain independence. One service user has specialised sensory equipment in a bedroom. Medication records are appropriately signed off by staff and evidenced the administration of the prescribed medication. In one case file the record of current medication needed to be updated to show recent changes.
DS0000067877.V304365.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Both case files examined showed that regular contact is made with local GPs, community nurses, dentists and where necessary psychiatrists. The district nurse visits the home to provide community nursing care to one person. The healthcare records for this person are dated in 2005 and need to be updated for the home by the district nurse; the Registered Manager has asked the nurse to revise the record.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Although the home overall is homely there has been a failure to protect and safeguard service users by ensuring equipment is suitable and the building in good repair. EVIDENCE: The internal dividing wall between the ground floor shower room and bathroom continues to show wide symptoms of damp with the paintwork blistering. This is a health hazard to service users and was highlighted in the last inspection report for urgent remedy. The Registered Manager said that the company has only recently obtained professional advice regarding this section of wall that is thought to require rebuilding work. Urgent remedial work is required to this wall to protect and safeguard the service users. There was no written evidence of professional guidance from an occupational therapist relating to the use of a reclining armchair and restraining lap strap that were being used for one service user. There also was no consent for this apparatus from care managers, health professional such as the GP or the family.
