This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. One and a half hours was spent in preparation, which included a review of the conditions of registration, previous inspection reports with associated requirements and recommendations, the service history and other associated documentation. One Requirement and four Recommendations were made at the last inspection and in the main these have been addressed. Work is ongoing to develop the information on residents’ wishes regarding terminal care and death and the review of outstanding policies and procedures continues. The Commission have received no concerns or allegations about the service from external sources. The focus of inspections undertaken by the Commission of Social Care Inspection is upon the outcomes for residents, and upon their views of the service provided The Commission also has a national focus on Equality and Diversity for all within this current year and issues relating to this are included in the main body of the report. Two residents were ‘case tracked’ which involved following the care that residents receive through a review of their care plans, other associated documentation such as accident records, observations, and a limited tour of the premises was conducted, which involved a sample of the residents accommodation and communal areas. Three residents were spoken to and discussions held with three of the care staff. This unannounced inspection was conducted during the morning and lasted for four and a half hours, during which the Acting Manager was present and was highly cooperative throughout. What the service does well:
New residents are given the right information and opportunities to visit the home before deciding whether they would like to live there. Residents have contacts in place, which set out the charges and what is provided by the service. The management make sure that the service is able to offer the right care for residents and that the staff know how to look after them, this is written down in a care plan. The care plan shows that residents get the right help from doctors and specialists like psychologists and dentists.

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): 1,2, 4 & 5 The quality in this outcome area is good; this judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. Appropriate admission processes are in place, which ensure that the home is able to meet the needs and expectations of residents EVIDENCE: There have been no new admissions to the home since the last inspection. However one resident has transferred to the home from another within the group. The resident confirmed that he had had the opportunity to visit the home, meet the other residents, staff and view the facilities before making a decision as to whether he would like to move there. There was also evidence that the appropriate information such as the Service Users Guide had been supplied to the resident and their representatives. The resident confirmed that the transfer had been managed well and that his quality of life had improved as he had moved to a more spacious environment and a location, which offered access to better facilities. All of the residents selected for case-tracking purposes had appropriate contracts in place, which had been signed by the acting Manager, however these had not been signed by the resident or their representative. This was discussed with acting Manager who has agreed to rectify this omission. DS0000063583.V304080.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.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6,7 & 9 The quality in this outcome area is adequate; this judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to the service. Individual needs and choices are generally managed well however the current style of documentation is not accessible to all residents. EVIDENCE: Each of the residents selected for case tracking purposes had an individual plan developed from regular assessments of need; these take into account the assessments conducted by the funding authorities. Following a previous recommendation the plans of care set out detailed instruction to staff about the personal and health care needs of the individual and how these needs are to be met. Individual pans of care evidenced that residents have access to appropriate specialist support and identifies where any restrictions are required. These are in the best interests of the individual and to be supported by appropriate risk assessments. The plans contain detailed information regarding the residents’ behaviours, which included triggers, warning signs and appropriate interventions.
DS0000063583.V304080.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Each resident has an allocated Key Worker and plans of care are reviewed on a regular basis and following consultation with the individual resident. However there was little evidence within the plans of care to demonstrate the level of the residents’ involvement or to show that the resident or their representative knew and agreed with what had been written. In addition the plans would benefit from being further developed into a more user-friendly format to enable greater access for residents with communication difficulties Residents are supported to make decisions and confirmed that they attended regular meetings to discuss communal issues such as the food and activities. During the inspection staff were seen to support residents with decisions regarding their daily routine and activities. Individual plans of care evidenced that residents had some access to advocacy services, however this should be further developed, particularly for residents who have no family to act on their behalf especially in respect of signing contacts and reviewing the content of the individual plans of care. Residents are supported to take risks within their daily lives and these are supported by appropriate risk assessments and specific training for example one resident is now allowed supervised use of the kitchen, which has been agreed following Basic Food Hygiene training.

Individual plans of care contained good detail about the residents’ needs and preferences regarding their personal daily routines. Residents are risk assessed regarding the use of keys either to the front door or their personal accommodation. Staff were seen to relate well to residents and to refer to them using their preferred form of address. In addition staff are supportive of the residents rights to privacy. At present there are no formal policies relating to Equality and Diversity for residents, however residents have access to a Charter of Rights and this is intrinsic to the philosophy of the home and the person centred care provided. Residents confirmed satisfaction with the food provided, being involved in the menu planning and the individual plans of care contained good detail about the individual’s preferences. A weekly menu was reviewed which appeared to offer three meals a day and a varied diet. However there appeared to be little evidence of fresh salad and vegetables. Fresh fruit was available in the conservatory and through discussion with a member of staff it was established that the residents were ‘put off’ by having salad and vegetables on the menu however these were provided with each meal. The lunchtime service was viewed and seen to comprise a good quantity and variety of home made sandwiches with salad; residents had been involved in discussions about the choice for lunch during the morning. Cold drinks were also available. The meal was served in the kitchen diner, which provided a pleasant environment and a relaxed atmosphere.

This has recently been followed up and the clearance is anticipated within the next few weeks. The Certificate of Registration is displayed and is accurate to the current needs of the residents. Quality Assurance Systems are in place and these involve regular residents meetings, internal audits of individual plans of care, medication systems and residents money. However these would benefit from being formalised within
DS0000063583.V304080.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 23 the organisation in order that benchmarking and good practice can be identified. Systems would benefit from further development in suitable formats to enable residents to comment individually on a regular basis as to their views about the quality of service provided. The organisation continues to review corporate policies and procedures for the services within the group. A significant number of these have yet to be done, despite the change of ownership having been completed over a year ago. It is recognised that this is beyond the scope of the individual service managers and this has been addressed in separate correspondence with the Responsible Individual and the Commission for Social Care Inspection are currently awaiting a response. Following a requirement at the previous inspection risk assessments have been reviewed regarding the required level of supervision for the safe transportation of residents by car. Safe working practices are managed well. Staff have access to appropriate mandatory training, appropriate risk assessments are in place for the environment and residents individual needs. No hazards were identified and appropriate safety equipment is available. Accidents and incidents are appropriately recorded and reported.
