This unannounced site visit took place over one day during the week and lasted from mid-morning until early evening. The inspector spent a total of 8 hours on site. Prior to the inspection, we reviewed the information that the Commission for Social Care Inspection had about the home. This included the Annual Quality Assurance Assessment completed and returned by the registered manager. We reviewed and summarised the incident and any monthly reports supplied by the home. As part of the inspection process postal questionnaires were circulated for people living in the home as well as relatives. To date twenty eight have been returned. Any comments have been incorporated into this summary and other sections of the main report. People living in the service and staff were spoken to and the serving of lunch was observed and there were other periods of observation in one unit using the Short Observational Framework Inspection Tool (SOFI). This is an inspection process designed to collect evidence about the quality of care for people living in a home who have cognitive impairment. In this home, the SOFI tool was used on the Dementia Care Unit. Staff were observed going about their duties and interacting with residents. Six care plans were looked at and compared with the care being provided. Service users were asked for their views about living in the home and staff were also interviewed about aspects of care, staffing levels, supervision, complaints and adult protection. Staff recruitment, supervision and training records were also looked at. All those who have contributed to the inspection process are thanked for their input. What the service does well: The service has an established and well-presented care planning system, which supports staff to meet the needs of people with complex health and personal care needs. The home has fostered good relations with medical and social care professionals. The home has been purpose built. It is secure and there is full disabled access. All bedrooms have ensuite facilities.

St John`s Wood Care Centre DS0000010324.V333596.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 All six care records examined contained pre-admission assessments. Those referred by Social Service Departments had copies of assessments and care plans under the care management process but the home has also completed pre-admission documentation.

Following admission risk assessments are also completed. The manager confirmed that all newly admitted service users and family members are given information about the service. Wherever possible arrangements are made to meet new referrals in their own home prior to admission. Comments from people who used the service confirmed that they had enough information about the service although from different sources. These were, “Yes I received enough information about this home through my wife.” “My children gave me all the information I needed.” “I received information about the service from my social worker.” St John`s Wood Care Centre DS0000010324.V333596.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Health and Personal Care The intended outcomes for Standards 7 – 11 are: 7. 8. 9. 10. 11.

The care records were a sample from each floor and client group accommodated in the home. The sample was chosen based on racial origin, gender, dementia, complex health needs and recent admissions. In each case we met with the person concerned but could not discuss their care with them in all cases. The relatives, health care professionals and care managers involved with each person was also asked for their feedback. A comparison was made between the care recorded in the daily records and the care being received by each resident. A sample audit was taken on each floor of the medication administration systems. St John`s Wood Care Centre DS0000010324.V333596.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 All care plans were found to be up-to-date and reflected the needs and wishes of each individual service user. The care records were comprehensive and important health and personal care needs were clearly identified. Where additional assessments were indicated, such as manual handling, risk of pressures sores and nutritional risks, these had been carried out and were reflected in the care plans. Samples of falls risk assessments and incontinence were also available. From observation and discussion with people using the service is was clear that service delivery matched the care plans. A comment from a person living in the care home was “They are always there for my needs.” A relative said, “ Staff do exceptionally well and are very observant.” As from previous inspections the care records clearly show referrals to and the involvement of other health care professionals. The records show that the registered nurses have identified changes in condition or behaviour and have referred to the General Practitioner (GP). All service users are registered with a local GP. Entries in care records show clear evidence of collaborative care with interventions from Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist, Chiropodist, Dietician and a Tissue Viability Nurse. Dental and Optical needs are also addressed. Observation on the day of the site visit, discussion with staff, feedback from people using the service and the examination of the care records confirmed that staff respect the privacy and dignity of the people they look after. A relative commented, “They respect my mother’s need for privacy to shut her door.” A sample audit of the management of medication in the home was taken on each floor. The medication administration records of the people being case tracked were looked at. The audit highlighted that there are satisfactory arrangements in place for the accurate recording of receipts, administration and disposal of medication.

The six care plans were comprehensive and reflected the wishes and preferences. The care home has started to introduce life history books to be completed by the resident and their representative, which will give more background information. These are very much in the early stages and staff must realise that it will be an ongoing process to keep them updated. An activities organiser and a programme of events is well established in the care home. During the day the inspector saw both individual and group St John`s Wood Care Centre DS0000010324.V333596.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 activities. An organiser is deployed on the Dementia Care Unit and there is clear evidence of the activities that people have been involved in. During an observation session during the afternoon, all the service users were engaged in some activity and there were examples of good interaction between the staff and the residents. The residents’ body language and interactions showed them to be relaxed and comfortable in their surroundings. Comments received were, “Yes, at times I go to other floors like the ground floor to join others for activities and I always like it.” “There is always activities arranged in the home but I prefer to watch television in the lounge with other residents.” “There is always activities arranged which I always attend as I enjoy it.” The care home has an open visiting policy and promote active family involvement.

The first case was not managed by the home according to the interagency adult protection procedures.

The care home has made improvements in this area and a comment from a relative highlighted this, “They regularly liaise with residents regarding any concerns or problems they may have. The service users are encouraged to disclose anything that may worry them.” A relative commented, “ My mother is not one of life’s “joiners”, and the activities organiser has found a way of enabling my mother to join in sometimes without her feeling forced to do so.” St John`s Wood Care Centre DS0000010324.V333596.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 Environment The intended outcomes for Standards 19 – 26 are: 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26.
