Prospective service users have an opportunity to visit and to “test drive” the home. Each service user has an individual written contract or statement of terms and conditions with the home. The Commission consider Standard 2 the key standard to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 1,2 and 3 People who use this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Information about the home is made available to potential future service users and their representatives. Needs are fully assessed before a place at the home is offered and prospective service users have opportunities to visit the home and spend time there before deciding to move in. EVIDENCE: There were five service users living at home when the visit took place. The manager said that there had been interest in the current vacancy and he was taking care to make sure that any future service users were compatible with those already living there. Any potential service user is assessed by the manager or locality manager and introduced to the service carefully. Introductions go at the service users pace and can include visits to the home and the opportunity to have an overnight or longer stay to try it out. The needs of the current service users were being well met. 267 Hersham Road DS0000013470.V371502.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Information about the home is available in the service users guide that has been developed on a pictorial format as well as in text with photographs.

The care plans of three service uses were read, all the information was up to date easy to find and clear about the service users likes and dislikes and
267 Hersham Road DS0000013470.V371502.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 preferences. Sections on cultural, religious and communication needs were included and staff reading the plans would be provided with all the information and guidance they needed to meet needs satisfactorily. Where the service user had stated they preferred male or female staff to support them with personal care this was recorded and staff spoken with were aware of preferences. Needs were being regularly reviewed internally and with relatives and care managers, any changes were well recorded and documented. Risk assessments are in place. The care plans however are not yet very easy for service users to access or to be involved in. The manager and locality manager said they propose to introduce more accessible and person centred plans. Forms giving agreement that staff could administer medication had been signed by service users or noted their verbal permission and had pictures on. Service users are included in the daily life of the home and importance is given to offering them opportunities to give their views on it and to make personal decisions and choices. There are weekly residents meetings, six monthly surveys and keyworker meetings. Some service users have limited verbal communication; staff on duty knew the service users well and were able to communicate effectively with them to establish their choices. During the visit service users were encouraged to help with tasks such as shopping and getting ready for lunch and were offered choice of activity. One service user was being supported over decisions about their future and the possibility of moving to more independent living, they understood that this was to go at their own pace. 267 Hersham Road DS0000013470.V371502.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 Lifestyle
