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): Standards 1 and 3. Standard 6 is not applicable to this home. 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. The home provided sufficient updated and relevant information to inform people about their rights and choices. Trial visits were encouraged to enable people to look around the home, meet other people living there and give them the information needed to make informed choices. EVIDENCE: The homes Statement of Purpose was available and on display in the entrance hall. In each bedroom there was a Service User Guide, which gave lots of useful information about the home and the services offered. Both the Statement of Purpose and Service User Guide had been updated in June 2006 and the manager stated that she was to amend these again to incorporate the new guidelines regarding the new smoking legislation.
Tapton Edge DS0000003020.V330593.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Professionals and staff from the home prior to admission taking place assessed people. This either took place at Tapton Edge or at peoples own homes if they preferred. The manager said that assessments in hospitals were also possible if needed. This enabled staff to be aware of individuals needs and to ensure that they could be met. Following admission to the home people were asked to complete a questionnaire asking their views of the admission process, these aided improvements to be made were necessary. One person said, “my daughter visited the home unannounced expecting to get a brochure – she was invited in and shown around”. A relative said, “at our initial enquiry stage our questions were fully answered, we were shown around the home and able to speak to others living in the home”. This home does not provide intermediate care services. Tapton Edge DS0000003020.V330593.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Health and Personal Care

One relative said that her mother had a specific health need that required appropriate staff action, she said that staff were “so in tune” with her mother that they had never failed to appropriately respond to her diverse needs. The care plans identified that a range of health professionals visited the home to assist in maintaining peoples health care needs.

Two relatives said they had spent many hours in the home with their mother and had never heard “anyone so much as raise their voice, even when staff were dealing with a particular challenging person”.
