The Care planning documentation, assessments and evaluations are based on the Activities of Daily Living. Individual files, were holistic and prescriptive of care. Where possible residents and families are involved with this process. A 14-day observation period after admission informs the care plan development.

There was little recorded evidence of resident consultation / involvement. This is due to the advanced dementias of the residents. The resident’s ability to exercise choice or make decisions is in general grossly diminished by cognitive impairment and staff or relatives advocate on their behalf. Staff were observed to be knocking on doors before entering service user rooms. The manager informed the inspector that privacy and dignity issues are discussed during induction. The multidisciplinary team meets quarterly to discuss individual residents and their quality of life. A number of residents require limited restraint for their own protection from falls. Consent to restrictions such as bed rails, lap straps and Quantic chairs are formally recorded and kept under review. OT and the nursing team assess use of theses item.
