This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. This was an unannounced key inspection, which included a site visit that was started at 8:45am on the 15th June 2007. It took place over one day and it lasted for about seven hours. The time was split between talking to Mr.and Mrs. Morgan and checking records, looking around the home, watching what was happening and talking to residents and other staff. Three residents, one relative and three staff were spoken with. A completed provider’s self-assessment survey information document (Annual Quality Assurance Assessment) was received before the inspection along with feedback surveys from residents, relatives and doctors. Of the surveys sent out one was returned by a resident, five by relatives and four by GP’s. The care services (case tracking) provided to two specific residents were used a basis for the process of the inspection. What the service does well:
Residents felt they were well looked after by the staff whom they described as “very good”, “nice”, “helpful” and “wonderful”. Looking at paperwork and talking to the residents, a relative and the staff showed that the residents are being given a good standard of care and that their privacy and dignity is respected. The staff knew a lot about the residents and the care needed. Enough staff were on duty to see to the residents properly. The information recorded in the care plans gives good guidance about how the residents are to be cared for. Before admission to the home new residents needs are properly checked so that the home can be sure that these people can be properly cared for. The home has a natural, friendly and homely feel about it with staff both spending time talking to the residents and helping them to make choices and decisions. The home offers a good range of leisure activities, which help to keep the residents interested and stimulated The residents enjoy the meals, special food is provided for those people who need it and those residents who cannot eat by themselves are given help. Visitors are welcome and the visitor spoken with praised the manager and the staff generously. The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 The building is in good order and the home is well furnished, clean and warm. What has improved since the last inspection?

Choice of Home (Standards 1–6) Health and Personal Care (Standards 7-11) Daily Life and Social Activities (Standards 12-15) Complaints and Protection (Standards 16-18) Environment (Standards 19-26) Staffing (Standards 27-30) Management and Administration (Standards 31-38) Scoring of Outcomes Statutory Requirements Identified During the Inspection The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 8 Choice of Home
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): 3. Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Pre-admission visits, and the initial assessment process, enable all parties, including potential residents and their relatives, to reach a decision as to whether the home will be able to meet their needs. The home does not provide intermediate (rehabilitative) care so Key Standard 6 does not apply. EVIDENCE: The home has both a Service User Guide (Residents Information Guide) and a Statement of Purpose that provide new and existing residents and their families with useful information about the services that the home provides. Copies of these documents were present in the resident’s bedroom and in the entrance area of the home. There is an expectation that new residents will have had their care needs assessed before they move in to the home so that they can be assured that the home can meet their needs. Such assessments are usually provided by the referring agency (e.g. a Social Services Department) or in the case where residents are paying for their care by the home’s assessment procedure.
The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 The care files of two residents relatively recently admitted to the home were therefore checked for the required pre-admission needs assessment information. Such assessments were seen to be in place that demonstrated that the admission procedure was very thorough and checking of the above records showed that a full and detailed assessment of these residents care needs had been completed prior to their admission to the home. The inspector was informed that all new residents have an in-house preadmission needs assessment done no matter who is paying for their care. From the above information the home is then able to assess whether these people’s needs can be met and a care plan and a range of other care delivery information is then put together. The manager usually visits new residents either at home or in the hospital as a part of the assessment and admission process. The inspector was told that new residents and their families are welcome to visit the home where they can spend some time, meet the residents and the staff, and have a meal before deciding to live there. This visiting opportunity is described in the useful and informative Service User Guide (Residents Information Guide). The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Health and Personal Care
The intended outcomes for Standards 7 – 11 are: 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. The service user’s health, personal and social care needs are set out in an individual plan of care. Service users’ health care needs are fully met. Service users, where appropriate, are responsible for their own medication, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. 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 Commission considers Standards 7, 8, 9 and 10 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 7,8,9 and 10. Quality in this outcome area is good. Proper arrangements are in place that ensures the residents health care needs are monitored and met. Individual care plans are also in place, which were up to date, regularly reviewed and provided the staff with the information needed to give a good standard of care. The home’s medication systems are satisfactory in ensuring that residents received medication as prescribed and care practices in the home ensure that the residents are treated with respect and their privacy and dignity is upheld. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The care files of the two case tracked residents were looked at. These contained care plans that had been reviewed on a weekly basis by senior care staff and on a monthly basis by the homes manager or sooner should a new need become apparent. Each plan contained details of health, personal and social care needs for the resident and day and night progress reports about each resident are regularly recorded. Both of the above records also showed that the residents weight is also checked regularly.
The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 The staff said that they knew about each residents needs by reading the care plans, which are readily available to them. A number of risk assessments were in place that included an up to date and regularly reviewed moving and handling assessment. Nutritional wellbeing is included in the care plan and is assessed by direct observation, regular and up to date weight checks and by the checking of food and fluid intake. Should concerns arise regarding a resident’s nutrition then a referral is made to the community dietician who has recently set up a dietary regime for two such residents. Pressure sore risk is assessed by direct observation by the staff with any problems being referred to the community nursing staff for advice and treatment. Talking to residents, the manager and the staff and looking at records and survey documents showed that the resident’s health care needs are taken care of and that when necessary health workers such as doctors, nurses and opticians are called. All medicines were safely stored and lockable Controlled Drugs storage is also available and the random checking of these found the quantity kept corresponded as required with the amount recorded in the Register. The residents’ medicines are provided in pre-filled blister packs with preprinted prescription/recording sheets also provided. These records were found to be properly completed and to be up to date. The medications supplied are checked in to the home , and medicines returned to the pharmacy are also recorded. Those staff that give out medicines have been given the necessary training for this task. The home has a satisfactory medicines policy and procedure that includes guidance for the self-administration of medicines and the use of homely remedies. At the time of the inspection one resident was dealing with their own medicines, the appropriateness and safety of this arrangement is checked daily and is also reviewed monthly. In discussion the residents said that they are given their medicines regularly and as prescribed. Records looked at emphasised the need for the residents privacy and dignity to be respected at all times, and the staff gave examples of how the residents privacy and dignity were promoted in the home, such as when giving personal care. This was observed during the inspection. Residents said that the staff treat them with respect and that their dignity is valued, for example they said that the staff knocked on their bedroom doors before entering. Those residents spoken with said that the staff were “respectful”, “considerate”, “pleasant” and that “they (the staff) talk to us properly”. The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 The staff were seen to have a good relationship with the residents, speaking to them in a natural, caring and friendly manner.

The intended outcomes for Standards 12 - 15 are: 12. 13. 14. 15. Service users find the lifestyle experienced in the home matches their expectations and preferences, and satisfies their social, cultural, religious and recreational interests and needs. Service users maintain contact with family/ friends/ representatives and the local community as they wish. Service users are helped to exercise choice and control over their lives. Service users receive a wholesome appealing balanced diet in pleasing surroundings at times convenient to them. The Commission considers all of the above key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12,13,14,and15. Quality in this outcome area is excellent. Residents have choice about their daily routines thus they are able to spend their time as they wish. Visitors are welcomed and the meals provided are good, offering choice and variety, and catering for special dietary needs. The activities offered within the home mean that residents have opportunities to participate in stimulating and motivating activities. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The home has a good social recreational activities programme that includes events such as crafts, reminiscence, bingo, dominoes, movement to music and outings. The activities programme is organised on a three weekly basis with a copy being displayed in the home’s hallway. Those residents spoken with were aware of the available activities, although some of them chose not to join in. External entertainers also visit the home that facilitate activities such as weekly crafts and chat and fortnightly movement to music sessions. Clothes parties have been held, singers have visited and outings to venues such as Blackpool, the Lake District and Southport have taken place. Further outings for the summer period were being planned at the time of this visit.
The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 The home regularly publishes a newsletter; the latest edition gave information such as forthcoming residents birthdays, welcoming new residents, entertainment and trips out, staff training and the achievement of the “Investors in People” award. From talking with residents, a relative and staff the inspector confirmed that the visiting arrangements are flexible with these being described in the resident’s information guide. Those residents spoken with said that they “were free to see their visitors wherever they wanted to”. They described taking visitors to their bedrooms for privacy or seeing them in one of the lounges. The residents and the staff said that visitors are made welcome and they said that visitors are offered refreshments. The residents said that they have choice about their daily routines thus they are able to spend their time as they wish. The issue of residents being able to make choices is described in the home’s Statement of Purpose and the Service User Guide.

The home has a four weekly menu that offers a variety of good nourishing traditional food with the main meal served at lunchtime and a lighter meal at teatime with warm food being available at both mealtimes. In discussion with the cook it became clear that she knew the residents likes and dislikes and was well able to cater for individual food preferences. All residents spoken to commented favourably on the quality of the food served. The residents also said that drinks and snacks were available at most times of the day. The dining tables are provided with tablecloths, condiments and flowers and the dining area provides a comfortable and attractive setting. The inspector sampled the lunchtime meal with the food found to be to an excellent standard. The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Complaints and Protection

The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 38 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. Service users live in a home which is run and managed by a person who is fit to be in charge, of good character and able to discharge his or her responsibilities fully. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. The home is run in the best interests of service users. Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping, policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users and staff are promoted and protected. The Commission considers Standards 31, 33, 35 and 38 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31,33,34 and 38. Quality in this outcome area is good. The manager provided good leadership; guidance and direction to staff to ensure residents received safe and consistent care and the residents are asked about their satisfaction with the service provided. Procedures and practices within the home promote and safeguard the health, safety and welfare of the people living and working in the home. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The manager and joint proprietor of The Bakewells has over 20 years experience in the nursing and caring professions. She is a qualified nurse, has been approved by the CSCI and has achieved the Registered Manager’s Award. The home is well run and discussion showed that the manager knows the residents and the staff well. The Bakewells DS0000009282.V312900.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 The residents spoke well of the manager with one person saying “I can talk to her if I’m worried about something and she puts it right”. Staff feedback was also positive. All 3 staff interviewed felt she gave them good support and was fair, reasonable and understanding in her dealings with them. A requirement of Standard 33 is that care homes must use quality assurance systems that are largely based on seeking the views of residents to measure their success in meeting the home’s aims and objectives. This information can then be used if necessary to bring about changes or improvements to the service. The home presently does this by the use of a survey document that asks a series of questions about the home’s services and facilities. The results of the last survey of resident and their families were shown in the home’s newsletter in December 2006. 13 survey forms were returned with most of them scoring positively for the questions that asked about how well the home is meeting the residents’ needs. Residents and staff meetings are also held regularly and the home manager undertakes internal quality audit of the home’s systems for items such as medications and accidents. A number of survey questionnaires were sent out by the CSCI to the residents, relatives and health workers (GP’s, district nurses etc) before the inspection. These questionnaires give these people the opportunity to comment upon various aspects of the services provided by a care home. At the time of writing this report 10 questionnaires had been returned; all of these were generally complimentary about the accommodation, the services and the care provided at The Bakewells. One person said, “I find staff attitudes to residents very good-caring and warm”. Another person said, “The Bakewells is a homely environment with warm caring staff”. The home holds money for a number of residents for safekeeping. This system was checked with the details found to be properly written down and with the correct amounts of money kept. This system records when money has been received and how it has been spent. The home is safely maintained with fire precautions tests done regularly and a random check of the accident book showed that the details of accidents are properly recorded. Examination of records and maintenance certificates showed that these were up to date and they confirmed that the home’s equipment, fixtures and fittings are regularly serviced. Looking at records and conversations with staff also showed that the necessary training had been provided so that they can work safely.
