This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. A range of evidence was looked at when compiling this report. Documentary evidence was examined, such as menus, staff rotas, care plans and staff files. Completed surveys were received from people living in the home and their relatives. The manager and proprietor completed an Annual Quality Assurance Assessment with information about the home. Any references to this document throughout the report will be referred to as the AQAA. A visit to the home took place on 19th June 2007 and included a tour of the premises, discussions with the manager, the proprietor, members of staff and conversations with people living in the home. Observations of how members of staff interact and communicate with people living there have also been taken into account. On the day of the inspector’s visit the atmosphere in the home was relaxed and welcoming and the inspector was given every assistance from the manager and the proprietor. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection?
Overall record keeping has improved since the last inspection and significant work has been done in improving and developing care plans. The care plans contain sufficient detail to ensure that people living there receive care in the way that they need and want. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 Improvements have been made to the gardens, including replacing fencing and paved paths, making security better for the people living in the 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): 1 and 3 (standard 6 is not applicable) Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. People choosing to live at The Lodge can be confident they will receive appropriate information about the home and their needs will be assessed before admission. EVIDENCE: Since the last inspection the home has updated it’s Statement of Purpose and Service User Guide so that people wishing to move in have enough information about what the home offers. All eight completed surveys received from people living in the home or their relatives indicated that they had received enough information about the home before moving in. One person said, “I visited a total of five homes in the area before deciding on The Lodge”. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 There have been improvements in the way the needs of people wishing to move in to the home are assessed. A sample of three peoples’ records was examined and all contain a full assessment of needs that includes a past medical history and details of social interests and hobbies. The pre-admission assessments now contain more detail and cover a wide range of areas including a physical health assessment, a mental health assessment and assessments of the person’s needs around nutrition, moving and handling, falls, behaviour and pressure sores. Records examined also contain evidence of recent review of people’s assessments. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.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. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Individuals can be confident that their personal and healthcare needs will be met in The Lodge. There are appropriate systems in place that make sure the administration of medication is safe for people living in the home. People can be confident that they will be treated with respect and dignity. EVIDENCE: At the time of the last inspection, care plans needed to be improved to provide greater detail that would ensure that individual’s needs are being met. A discussion with the manager confirmed that care plans have been developed further. A sample of three care plans was examined and all have been updated recently. There is clear evidence that people’s care plans are linked to the assessment process. Care plans identify the need or the problem and set goals and objectives. The plans of care to meet the identified needs contain sufficient detail to ensure care is provided in the way people wish.
The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 There was a discussion with the manager about finding ways to include further details such as a background history of the person. The manager said they are aware that there are always ways to improve and they are continuing to develop the process for recording care plans. Care plans examined contain monthly progress and evaluation sheets. Care plans are personalised with individual photographs. The home continues to meet people’s healthcare needs. Care plans examined contain evidence of input from healthcare professionals including GP, optician and hospital visits. Completed comment cards were received from GPs and contain positive responses about the home’s healthcare. Individual records examined contain charts for monthly recording of weight and details of the person’s current prescribed medication. There are risk assessments in place covering areas identified through the assessment of needs process. Risk assessments identify what the risk to the individual is and what precautions are to be taken to reduce the risk. One relative who responded to our survey commented that they are “very satisfied with the level of care provided”. The home operates a Monitored Dose System for administering prescribed medicines. At the time of the inspection, one person in the home was selfmedicating and keeps the medication in the cupboard in the bedroom. There was a discussion with the manager about ensuring that all those living in the home have a lockable cupboard. As part of the home’s improvement plan they are considering the best way to ensure people have secure storage for valuables. A tour of the premises showed that medication is stored securely. Medicines Administration Record (MAR) sheets were examined and found to be completed appropriately. On the day of the inspection interactions between staff and people living in the home were observed to be appropriate and polite. One relative who completed a survey commented, “The staff are efficient, polite and caring. My relative feels safe and happy there and I feel confident that they are in good hands.” The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Daily Life and Social Activities
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 and 15 Quality in this outcome area is adequate. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Overall The Lodge provides people who live there with variety and choice, although their lifestyle would be better if there was more stimulation in their daily lives. People living in the home benefit from maintaining good contact with family and friends and they are provided with wholesome, appealing meals that they enjoy. EVIDENCE: There has been some improvement since last inspection when it was reported that there was no evidence that planned activities were taking place. Records examined indicate that the home has a programme of weekly activities including word games such as ‘compete the proverb’ and ‘cockney rhyming slang’. However, discussion with the manager and observations on the day of the visit indicate that they don’t always stick to a formal programme. On day of inspection visit the morning activity involved singing to old time records. Daily activity records indicate that there is quite a lot of watching TV and reading. A significant amount of time was spent observing what was going on in the lounge area. People living in the home spend time chatting to one another and some very friendly relationships are obvious.
The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 One person plays on the keyboard twice a day and was observed to enjoy the music and was singing with enthusiasm. One person commented, “Because of my medical condition I choose not to take part in activities as I get breathless very easily”. However, not all comments were favourable; one person responded, “I haven’t been told of any activities. It would be nice if there was”. Overall, a greater variety of activities would improve the quality of life for people living in the home. The home continues to support people to maintain family links and this is reflected in the good response to completed surveys received by us. Relatives say they can visit at any time. There is a quiet sitting area upstairs and quiet seating at one end of the dining room for people to entertain visitors in private if they wish. As at the last inspection interactions between people in the home and staff were observed to be friendly and appropriate. Staff spoken with said that they do try to involve people in doing things around the home. Menus were examined and show that there is a choice of hot meals at lunchtime. In the evening there is also a choice of sandwiches or a cooked light meal like bacon and eggs. The menus are varied and include a variety of foods. The cook explained that they use both fresh and frozen vegetables. Special arrangements for conditions like diabetes are well understood and the cook was able to demonstrate a good awareness of how to meet these needs. People spoken with said that they could choose what they want for dinner and staff find out what they want for lunch the following day and give the information to the cook. One person said, “There is a good variety of food, which is well cooked and appetizing” and another commented, “If I do not like what is on the menu one day they always offer an alternative”. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Complaints and Protection
The intended outcomes for Standards 16 - 18 are: 16. 17. 18. Service users and their relatives and friends are confident that their complaints will be listened to, taken seriously and acted upon. Service users’ legal rights are protected. Service users are protected from abuse. The Commission considers Standards 16 and 18 the key standards to be. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 16 and 18 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. People who use the service have access to a clear and understandable complaint procedure that ensures that they are listened to. The home operates robust practices and procedures to ensure the protection of the people who live there. EVIDENCE: The home continues to have an appropriate complaints procedure in place. A copy of the complaints procedure is displayed in the hallway of the home. Relatives who responded to surveys and people spoken with confirm that they are aware of how to make a complaint and who to go to. Records examined show that there have been no complaints documented in the past year. There was a discussion with the manager about improving the process by recording minor concerns and how they have been dealt with, this was addressed promptly and the manager has adapted the recording format to include minor concerns. People living in the home are protected by staff who have had training to help them recognise signs of abuse and to understand their responsibilities about reporting any concerns they may have. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Staff in the home are working through the abuse awareness package developed by the Essex Vulnerable Adults Protection Committee (EVAPC). In addition, further Protection of Vulnerable Adults (POVA) training is booked and there is a workforce planner in place identifying the training needs of all staff. Staff files examined contains enhanced Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) checks and discussion with the proprietor confirms that the home is to carry out further CRB checks for staff who have been employed for a number of years. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Environment
The intended outcomes for Standards 19 – 26 are: 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. 24. 25. 26. Service users live in a safe, well-maintained environment. Service users have access to safe and comfortable indoor and outdoor communal facilities. Service users have sufficient and suitable lavatories and washing facilities. Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. Service users’ own rooms suit their needs. Service users live in safe, comfortable bedrooms with their own possessions around them. Service users live in safe, comfortable surroundings. The home is clean, pleasant and hygienic.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. People living in The Lodge benefit from a safe and well-maintained environment that is clean and pleasant. People may be confident that their bedrooms are comfortable and they are surrounded by their own possessions. EVIDENCE: A tour of the premises confirmed that The Lodge is homely and comfortable. One relative commented, “It is not a large home and does not have the atmosphere of an institution. It is very homely”. The carpet in the lounge was due to be replaced; the proprietor was able to provide evidence that a new carpet has been purchased and it was to be delivered the day after the inspection visit. This is to be laid promptly by the home’s maintenance person. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 The carpet in the hallway has some minor repairs with tape and is in need of either more permanent repairs or replacement if people living in the home are to be safe. The gardens are well maintained and very pleasant. There have been improvements to the gardens since the last inspection to make sure that people are protected by secure gates and fencing. The paved path has been re-laid to ensure that it is level and there are no trip hazards. The proprietor explained that they have plans in place for making further improvements including widening the path to improve access for people living in the home. People’s bedrooms are well decorated and there is ample evidence that people are surrounded by their personal possessions. One person had a small fridge and this has been replaced with a full size one so they can be more independent about making snacks and drinks. The standard of cleanliness around the home remains good overall with no evidence of odours throughout. The equipment in the laundry is appropriate for the size of the home and there is an additional sluice room upstairs. However, the flooring in the laundry is damaged where one of the machines was removed and should be replaced to ensure people are protected by good infection control.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. People living in The Lodge benefit from a competent staff team, who are provided with an effective programme of training. The home’s recruitment procedure provides the safeguards to ensure that appropriate staff are employed. EVIDENCE: A discussion with the manager confirmed that the proprietor works out staffing levels using the Department of Health’s ‘Residential Forum’ assessment tool. Observations on the day of the inspection show that staffing levels are appropriate to meet the needs of people living in the home. Rotas were examined and they confirm that there are either two or three members of care staff per shift plus the manager, cook and cleaner. There are two members of staff on ‘awake’ duty at night. People spoken with are complimentary about the staff. Interactions between members of staff and people living in the home were observed to be relaxed and friendly. One person who completed a survey said, “My relative feels safe and happy in the home and I feel confident that they are in good hands”. Another responded, “I find the helpers/carers very kind and helpful”. The Lodge - Walton DS0000018013.V343699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Overall surveys and comment cards contained positive responses about staff. However, one person indicated that they feel there are not always sufficient staff on duty. The manager said that 50 of care staff have a National Vocational Qualification (NVQ) at level 2 or above. This information was also documented in the AQAA. One of the staff files sampled contains evidence that the member of staff has NVQ level 2 and level 3 and a member of staff spoken with confirmed this. The Lodge has an appropriate process in place for the recruitment of staff. A sample of three staff records were examined and all contain evidence of appropriate recruitment documentation.
