What the service does well:
St Theresa’s is comfortable, homely and welcoming. There was a nice atmosphere during the inspection, although the home was having a particularly challenging day. The staff were interacting well with the residents and a number of visitors in the home. Residents spoken with said that the staff are ‘kind and helpful’. The information about the home given to prospective residents and or their representatives has sufficient detail to allow an informed decision to be made about moving into the home. When possible, prior to admission, the manager or another of the trained nurses visit the person in their current setting to perform a full needs assessment in addition to receiving care plans from other social and health care professionals. Once admitted to the home Service Users needs are set out in a care plan, the plans provide sufficient information for care staff to be able to meet the individuals’ health, social and psychological needs. The staff are trained and competent in their jobs. There is a trainer in the home who is highly thought of and works with carers through their induction and ongoing training. The processes in place to protect the health and welfare of the residents such as the complaints procedure, fire and health and safety procedures.

The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 6 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 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): 2&3 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. People who use this service or are prospective Service Users have good information about the home in order to make an informed decision about whether the service is right for them. The personalised needs assessment means that people’s diverse needs are identified and planned for before they move to the home. This home does not provide intermediate care. EVIDENCE: St Theresa`s DS0000009245.V311602.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 The manager showed the inspector pre admission documentation and how the negotiation for appropriate equipment is carried out. The staff ensure that they have the social service care plan if a resident is publicly funded and the operations manager triggers the funded nursing care assessment, if the person is not being admitted from hospital. The manager said that if a prospective resident is local to the area she herself or one of the other senior trained nurses goes to visit the person in their current setting to make an assessment. Information is taken about their current abilities, medication, next of kin and equipment required. The current fees range from £444.25 to £626.50 (information taken from the pre inspection questionnaire dated 20.09.06). The Service Users contracts are dealt with by the operations director, responsible for 3 homes locally for the Adlington Group, but based at St Theresa’s. She was able to show the inspector how the fees are broken down on the contract, which was easy to understand, The inspector was also shown a copy of the letter that is sent to the resident or their representative to welcome them to the home, which explains the fees to be paid and includes a Service Users Guide. She said that each year when the fees are increased the resident or their representative receive a letter to notify them about a month beforehand in order that those who pay directly to the home can make arrangements with the bank.

Service users feel they are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. Service users are assured that at the time of their death, staff will treat them and their family with care, sensitivity and respect.

The information generates the plans of care, which provide the basis for the care to be
St Theresa`s DS0000009245.V311602.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 delivered. The care plans were clear and easy to understand and had been regularly reviewed. Other records examined were the monthly weight for each Service User. The matron then makes a judgement about how to manage any weight loss or gain by discussing the residents requirements with the catering manager during their weekly meeting. Or by referral to the GP, who is now the only person who can refer a Service User to the dietician. Monthly blood pressure and pulse are also recorded for each resident. The matron said that each care plan is discussed with the resident or their representative at least annually (where possible). A signature to confirm this is gained where possible. Records are maintained for all visits to the home by social or health care professionals, all residents are registered with a GP. Records in the communication book, diary and care plans detailed outpatient appointments and GP visits showing that residents are enabled to use health resources. The medication system is well managed; The local chemist supplies medicines in individual bottles and boxes which are kept in individual trays within the drugs trolley, each tray is colour coded to match the colour code of the wing the Service User lives in. The deputy matron said stock is checked and ordered weekly. She added that whilst all of the trained nurses have responsibility for the medications management, one RGN takes responsibility for ordering and management of the medicines as her special ‘interest’. The treatment room and store room were not overstocked but had sufficient supplies, medicines, and dressings. Disposal of unused/ out of date medication is safe, well recorded and removed by a licensed contractor. Oxygen storage was appropriately managed with correct signage was in place. A tour of the home showed that in several rooms there were unlabelled pots of cream with no opening date written on them. It was recommended that the labels are kept on pots /tubes of cream to show they are being used for the person for whom they are prescribed and they have a date of opening clearly marked on them.
