Also see our care home review for Wyton Abbey for more information

This inspection was carried out on 11th April 2005.

CSCI has not published a star rating for this report, though using similar criteria we estimate that the report is Poor. The way we rate inspection reports is consistent for all houses, though please be aware that this may be different from an official CSCI judgement.

The inspector found there to be outstanding requirements from the previous inspection report but made no statutory requirements on the home.

What follows are excerpts from this inspection report. For more information read the full report on the next tab.

What the care home does well

Staff work hard and are liked by residents. Complaints are dealt with.

What has improved since the last inspection?

Better information about the service is now available. Some action has been taken to improve the safety in the home; doors were not held open by wedges, so would be easier to close in the event of a fire. The manager has also identified how staff can avoid other risks.

What the care home could do better:

Sufficient staff must be on duty to ensure that they are not rushed and will give better care to the people in the home; more activities, more time with service users, and more assistance at meal times. Residents must receive all medication that is prescribed for them including creams and ointments. Residents live in an unpleasant environment. The home should be kept cleaner, without smells and with better decoration.

The inspection was completed as part of the programme of inspections for the year. It was an unannounced inspection undertaken by two inspectors, Sarah Sadler and Tom Tomlinson. The inspection day lasted from 9.30 am until 5.45 pm with a previous half day preparation also undertaken. During the inspection a tour of the premises was completed, a number of services users were spoken with, and approximately six of these were engaged in longer conversations with the inspectors. Time was spent with service users in the communal areas of the home observing their daily lives and further time was spent reading service users care plans and files. Discussions were held with the manager and staff throughout the day. What the service does well: What has improved since the last inspection? Better information about the service is now available. Some action has been taken to improve the safety in the home; doors were not held open by wedges, so would be easier to close in the event of a fire. The manager has also identified how staff can avoid other risks.

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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 1. The statement of purpose provides sufficient information. EVIDENCE: The statement of purpose now contains sufficient information to allow people to make positive choices about living in the home. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 9 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 7,8,9,10,11. Service users Health, Safety and Welfare needs are not being fully met. Care plans and risk assessments are not always acitoned. Service users are not supported with their nutritional needs. The dignity of service users is compromised by a lack of respect. EVIDENCE: Individual assessments and care plans are in place for service users. These include details of their health, personal and social care needs. The care plans are reviewed on a monthly basis by the manager. No evidence was found that service users are involved in the development of their care plans and the manager confirmed this is an area that is to be developed within the home. There are entries in the daily notes, but there are often gaps in recording. The entries reflected limited evidence of the care and support given, particularly in relation to meeting social needs. Personal care needs were observed not to have been met, as several service users appeared unkempt. Identified personal care plan needs had not been undertaken. Service users clothing was not clean, ( stale food was on clothing). Female service users were not wearing tights and male service users were not shaved. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 10 Only one of the bathrooms available within the home is in use, as others are being used mainly as store rooms. In discussion with the manager and staff it was confirmed that service users are bathed in this bathroom only. Service users are assessed for the risk of developing pressure sores and input from the district nursing team was observed. Records are kept of hospital appointments and one service user reflected that the support given to attend a hospital appointment was good. Care notes detailed that where service users are unable to make decisions regarding their health care, this is decided by the manager. Care plan records identified health appointments attended. However, limited information was available on how these health needs would continue to be met. Evidence that any personal or oral hygiene needs are met was limited. Care plans relating to health and personal care were sometimes non specific for example, “ to provide a nutritional diet” or “staff to report any problems”. Records are kept of receipt and disposal of medicines. No evidence was found that creams and ointments had been administered. No records of the checking of the temperature of the medication refrigerator were available. One service users’ medication sheet had the persons first name only. A tablet was found on the floor of a service users’ room. This had been signed for as administered. The manager confirmed that staff have been trained in the handling of medication but had not been assessed as competent. Service users reflected that their dignity and privacy are respected. Shared rooms were seen to have screening and service user rooms are lockable. Staff interacted positively with service users. However, at busier periods, for example mealtimes, staff were heard to instruct and direct service users to conform. It was observed that service users appeared unkempt, for example hair not brushed and gentlemen not shaved. Service users unable to remove food items from their clothing after meals were left in stained clothes. Limited evidence was available that service users or their relatives’ wishes are sought and recorded regarding actions to be taken after a service user passes away. A form is in place to record these wishes. However, these related only to which undertaker is to be used. Staff offered support to service users to eat their meals and additional support was provided by the administrator. No specialist equipment was evident and service users were observed to have difficulties with their food, for example, often spilling food. At times service users’ behaviour was disruptive, reflecting a rushed and stressful lunchtime, with one staff member often supporting several service users at once. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 11 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 at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 12,15 Service users social needs are identified but are not met. Service users are not sufficiently stimulated to provide a satisfactory quality of life and could result in poor mental health. EVIDENCE: Care plans included details of assessed social needs and wishes. However the only recorded activity was that of key worker individual time with service users. On average this time amounted to approximately 4 occasions per month and referred mainly to chats. For a service user residing in the Garden Cottage no evidence of individual time was found. Service users reflected that they enjoyed the minibus trips out and the notice board detailed that these happen twice a month. However, service users also commented “there is nothing to do here”. Some service users presented as apathetic. Observations reflected that service users sat for long periods with limited interactions with others and no activities being undertaken. The radio was on in one lounge. Some service users stated that they chose to stay in their rooms and not participate when an activity was offered. The planned menus indicated a reasonably balanced diet. However, service users were not aware of the menu choices and the records of choices for the Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 12 lunch on the day of inspection were seen to be completed later in the afternoon. The choice of the day for the main course was either shepherds pie or egg on toast. However, the menu board in the dining room stated, “ Mr Sausages and sticks, with rabbit food & boiled somat” “frog spawn”. Staff offered support to service users to eat their meals and additional support was provided by the administrator. However, no specialist equipment was evident and some service users were observed to have difficulties with their food, for example often spilling food. Observations reflected that no condiments were available or were offered. At times service users’ behaviour was disruptive, reflecting a rushed and stressful lunchtime, with one staff member often supporting several service users at once. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 13 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 inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 16 Service users complaints are dealt with. EVIDENCE: There is a complaints procedure that has been agreed with the Commission for Social Care Inspection. A poster explaining this was on display in the home. The manager confirmed a full policy available. Records of complaints are kept. And there have been two recorded complaints, one of which continues to be investigated by the manager. A service user confirmed that she feels able and is aware of how to complain. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 14 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’ 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. The Commission considers Standards 19 and 26 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 19,20,21,23,24,25,26. Service users do not live in a clean, hygienic and homely environment. EVIDENCE: The décor throughout the home was of a poor standard. Areas were dirty with cobwebs noted in communal and individual rooms. There was an unpleasant odour throughout the building and carpets were dirty. Bedding, bedrail covers and some equipment had faeces smeared on them. Many of the bedrooms required redecorating and were poorly furnished. One bedroom contained only a bed, had no curtains and urine was on the floor. Several lights did not work and many lampshades were missing. Only one bathroom was useable and in use. Toilets are accessible to service users but were not all clean. The organisation has recently undertaken an audit of the home, this identified areas within the home that required repair/alteration. A previous audit had been undertaken six months ago. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 15 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 27 – 30 are: 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users needs are met by the numbers and skill mix of staff. Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission considers Standards 27, 29, and 30 the key standards to be inspected at least once during a 12 month period. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for standard(s) 27,28,29,30. Staffing levels and competencies are not adequate to fully meet the needs of service users and keep the home clean. EVIDENCE: Staff were seen attending to more than one service user. There were three care staff to 23 service users in the main part of the home. Many of these service users have a high level of need, including dementia and physical care. Staffing levels did not fluctuate during the day for peak times of activity. At lunchtime staff were seen assisting more than one service user at a time to eat their lunch. The cleaner was on sick leave. The manager stated a replacement had been arranged, but none arrived, the home was not cleaned. Staff have undertaken no training in dementia care. The manager stated that this is available within the organisation. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 16 Management and Administration 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 health, safety and welfare of service users and staff is not fully promoted and protected. EVIDENCE: The manager has applied to be registered with the Commission for Social Care Inspection, but is not yet registered. The manager confirmed that she has completed the Registered Managers Award and has only a few sections of the National Vocational Qualification level 4 in care to undertake to achieve this award. The manager currently works 18 hours per week on management duties and 24 hours per week as part of the care team. Service users’ finance records are kept; service user monies continue to be held in a common bank account operated by Prime Life Ltd. Wyton Abbey J53_S19777_Wyton Abbey_V221699_110405_Stage 4.doc Version 1.20 Page 17 Some service user care plans were not up to date and there are gaps in the recordings. Some entries in care records lacked clarity and were non specific. Safety gates continue to be used within the home and the manager confirmed this is to prevent service users with dementia from falling down the stairs. Evidence of management visits that meet the requirements of regulation 26 were not available. The manager confirmed that a 5 year electrical wiring certificate has not yet been completed for the home. Some risk assessments are now in place for safe working practices. The lift was ¿found to have internal doors which did not close fully, and could be re-opened whilst the lift was moving. This then caused the lift to stop. Two call points were inoperative and some were not readily accessible. Pipe work and radiators are guarded.
