Brief Description of the Service: The main part of the premises are two older two-storey properties which have been joinced together and adapted for their present use. The accommodation for service users is arranged on each of the floors. On the ground floor there are various lounges and other communal areas. The first and second floors are used for service users bedrooms and there are also toilets and bathrooms on these levels. To the rear of the main buildings, there is a suite of purpose built bedrooms. When the Home is full, there is provision for two of the bedrooms to be shared. The remaining bedrooms all offer single occupancy. All of the bedrooms have a wash handbasin, with those in the new build section having a full ensuite service. The newly built bedrooms form a quadrangle with the main building. This is a popular area with the service users because it is out of doors while at the same time being private. To one side of the site, there is also a more conventional garden area. The Hailey looks out over The Downs and out to sea. It is only a short distance from Herne Bay town centre and so offers ready access to a range of community based facilities.

The Inspector notes that neither the Registered Provider nor the Commission is in receipt of any complaints relating to The Hailey which remain to be resolved. Support workers have a good understanding of what constitutes good care practice.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30. The Home provides comfortable accommodation. However, some parts of it are specified to a basic standard only. Service users’ bedrooms are adequately presented and equipped. There is a sufficient number of toilets and bathrooms. However, most are not presented to a satisfactory standard. There is adequate equipment in place to enable support workers to assist those service users who experience a measure of reduced mobility. The Home is cleaned to a normal domestic standard. EVIDENCE: Service users say that their accommodation is homely and is familiar to them. The Registered Provider recognises that the physical standard achieved in various of the bedrooms, in some of the communal areas and in most of the toilets and bathrooms falls below that which service users have the right to expect. The Registered Provider has already addressed a number of the most pressing defects. He has informed the Inspector that the remainder will be addressed as part of a more general programme of refurbishment. The Hailey H56-H05 S58573 The Hailey V227668 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 18 Service users say that they like their bedrooms and that they have all they need in order to use them as bed sitting areas. The Inspector visited one of the bedrooms and he noted it to be comfortable and to reflect the preferences of the person in residence. There is an adequate number of toilets and bathrooms. The Inspector notes that the Registered Provider is considering creating another bathroom on the top floor in the main building. This would be a useful facility for the service users who occupy the bedrooms which are nearby. Although some of the service users are older people, nearly all of the people in residence are able to get about without assistance. There is adequate equipment in place to enable support workers to assist safely those few service users who do experience a measure of reduced mobility. The accommodation is cleaned to a normal domestic standard. The Inspector examined the kitchen and he noted it to be presented to a suitable standard of hygiene and to be operated appropriately. The Hailey H56-H05 S58573 The Hailey V227668 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 19 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. Service users benefit from clarity of staff roles and responsibilities. Service users are supported by competent and qualified staff. Service users are supported by an effective staff team. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Service users’ individual and joint needs are met by appropriately trained staff. Service users benefit from well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 35 the key standard to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 31, 32, 33, 34, 35 and 36. Support workers have a good understanding on their duties and they work together well as a team. There is an adequate number of staff on duty. Support workers have the competencies they need and their practice is monitored. Appropriate steps are taken to ensure that only suitable people work in the Home. EVIDENCE: Support workers are provided with a written account of their duties. The staff team is relatively stable. This means that people have got used to working together and that service users know who is going to be around and what they are going to be doing. There are handover meetings at the beginning and end of each shift and support workers keep diary records of how things are going for each service user. There are regular staff meetings and support workers say that they are actively consulted by the Registered Manager about how the Home is administered. There are at least three support workers on duty during the day and the evening. They are supplemented by other people who do most of the cleaning or most of the catering. At night time, there are usually three support workers The Hailey H56-H05 S58573 The Hailey V227668 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 20 on waking duty. Staff say that enough support workers are deployed in the Home to enable an effective service to be provided. Service users say that support workers are always around when they need them. The Inspector considers the Home to be staffed adequately given the needs for assistance of the service users currently in residence. Four of the 14 support workers have completed a relevant National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) and four more a registered to complete the same. This qualification is designed to validate that individual support workers have the skills they need to respond effectively to service users’ needs for assistance. In addition to this, the Registered Manager provides introductory training for all new support workers and periodically appraises the competencies of existing staff. The Registered Provider arranges for support workers to undertake specific courses in subjects such as first aid and in how to respond to extreme situations. The Inspector considers that the support workers have the competencies they need in order to provide a reliable and effective response to the present service users’ needs for assistance. Each member of staff meets regularly with someone senior to review their work. This is done so that any problems can be identified at an early point and addressed. The Hailey H56-H05 S58573 The Hailey V227668 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 21 Conduct and Management of the Home The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. Service users are confident their views underpin all self-monitoring, review and development by the home.

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 are promoted and protected. Service users benefit from competent and accountable management of the service. The Commission considers Standards 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period.

She has almost acquired both of the formal management qualifications prescribed by the Standards. In addition to this, she has attended various training courses. The Registered Manager has a detailed understanding of the day to operation of the Home and of the particular needs of each of the service users. Both the The Hailey H56-H05 S58573 The Hailey V227668 080805 Stage 4.doc Version 1.30 Page 22 service users and the members of staff say that they feel themselves to be free to approach the Registered Manager or the Deputy Manager if there is something troubling them. In addition to these informal consultations, the Registered Provider operates a quality assurance system. This is designed to enable stakeholders in general and service users in particular to comment on the adequacy of the facilities and services available in the Home. The Registered Manager is going to strengthen an aspect of how the results of this annual exercise are notified to service users. This will entail the preparation of a Quality Report. The first of these will be made available by 1 April 2006. The Registered Manager maintains various recording systems to assist in the management of the Home. The Inspector examined the accident book and he noted that there were no patterns which indicated the need for him to make any further enquiries. The Inspector also examined the records which the Registered Manager keeps in relation to those service users who elect to receive assistance with the management of their weekly personal spending allowance. The various entries checked were found to be in order. Service users are confident that their monies are administered in an appropriate manner. There are various policies and procedures available in the Home. These are designed to support staff when undertaking their duties. The Inspector noted that support workers are conversant with the principles expressed in these documents. Also noted, was that they carry out their work in a manner which is consistent with their provisions. The Kent Fire Service and the local Department of Environmental Health have not recommended any improvements which remain outstanding. The Registered Manager completes the periodic checks which have to be made to ensure the continued serviceability of the Home’s fire safety regime. The Registered Provider has arranged for all appliances such as gas boilers to be serviced in accordance with the manufacturers’ instructions. The Registered Manager said that there are no significant hazards around the premises which could result in someone having an accident. Also, the Inspector did not notice any such hazards.
