What the care home does well This is a new care home that has been set up specifically to suit the needs of the clients that now live in the home. The service users are profoundly disabled and unable to communicate verbally; despite this, the Proprietors worked with their advocates, family and care manager to ensure that the house is suitable. The Statement of Purpose has been reviewed and kept up to date. The assessment proceedure is robust and operates in conjunction with the developed strategy to fully inform placement decisions, based upon sound planning of both need and finance. Various professionals have given very positive feedback to the registered persons on the standards in the home. "Person Centered support" is used to provide good quality care and support for the service users. Religious and cultural differences are respected and those living in the home have a varied and active lifestyle. A programme of staff training is ongoing to meet the needs of the service users. There is a good relationship with the Community Team for people with learning disabilities (CTPLD), which includes the community nurses. Care staff support service users to access their appointments. What has improved since the last inspection? This new service has been registered for only three months so all the service users have been admitted recently. What the care home could do better: The radiators are not covered and in some areas the surface temperature was too hot for safety. A risk assessment is to be carried out. There are plans to improve access to the back garden and to have decking with a sensory garden for the enjoyment of service users living in the home. In addition, the Proprietors are considering an extension to the property so that four people can be accommodated; at the same time the utility room will be enlarged and a conservatory built to provide additional living space.

Mrs Sandra Grainge, locum Regulation Inspector, carried out this unannounced key inspection site visit for the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) using the Inspecting for Better Lives process. Mrs L. Miles, the Registered Person, was working in the home and assisted with the inspection process. A full tour of the premises was carried out and a number of records and documents were sampled, including policies and procedures, service users individual files, medication records and staff recruitment and training files. Care for all three service users was case tracked. I spoke to all the service users and staff on duty during the time of the visit and was welcomed to observe service user’s life in the home and staff interaction with them. No visitors or relatives came to the home during the five hours that I was there. An Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQUA) was supplied to the home and this was completed and returned. Information provided in the AQAA informed this report. A number of CSCI feedback forms were supplied to service users, their relatives, an advocate and to healthcare professionals involved in their support. The return of surveys was not good; I spoke to the advocate who informed me that she has no concerns about the service and feels that the service users have benefited from the resettlement. What the service does well: This is a new care home that has been set up specifically to suit the needs of the clients that now live in the home. The service users are profoundly disabled and unable to communicate verbally; despite this, the Proprietors worked with their advocates, family and care manager to ensure that the house is suitable. The Statement of Purpose has been reviewed and kept up to date. The assessment proceedure is robust and operates in conjunction with the developed strategy to fully inform placement decisions, based upon sound planning of both need and finance. Various professionals have given very positive feedback to the registered persons on the standards in the home. “Person Centered support” is used to provide good quality care and support for the service users. Religious and cultural differences are respected and those living in the home have a varied and active lifestyle. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 6 A programme of staff training is ongoing to meet the needs of the service users. There is a good relationship with the Community Team for people with learning disabilities (CTPLD), which includes the community nurses. Care staff support service users to access their appointments. What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better: Please contact the provider for advice of actions taken in response to this inspection. The report of this inspection is available from enquiries@csci.gsi.gov.uk or by contacting your local CSCI office. The summary of this inspection report can be made available in other formats on request. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 7 DETAILS OF INSPECTOR FINDINGS CONTENTS Choice of Home (Standards 1–5) Individual Needs and Choices (Standards 6-10) Lifestyle (Standards 11-17) Personal and Healthcare Support (Standards 18-21) Concerns, Complaints and Protection (Standards 22-23) Environment (Standards 24-30) Staffing (Standards 31-36) Conduct and Management of the Home (Standards 37 – 43) Scoring of Outcomes Statutory Requirements Identified During the Inspection 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 8 Choice of Home The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 5 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Prospective users’ individual aspirations and needs are assessed. Prospective service users know that the home that they will choose will meet their needs and aspirations. 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): Standards 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 for a new service were inspected. Quality in this outcome area is good. Prospective Service users and their advocates have enough information to inform choice; needs are assessed prior to entry to the home. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: There was a relevant comprehensive statement of purpose in place. In addition, a pictorial a service user guide was available. All three service users had recently been admitted to this new service The needs of each person had been assessed by a multi disciplinary team and recorded both by staff at the prior NHS placement and the transition planners. The service manager had carried out assessments to ensure that staff could meet the assessed needs. The completed needs assessment forms have been used to provide a holistic picture of service user needs. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 9 Prospective service users and their relatives had been invited and brought to visit the property. The manager informed me that each person has a contract for care. These documents are not currently kept in the home; the manager will arrange for a copy to be kept in each person’s file. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 Individual Needs and Choices The intended outcomes for Standards 6 – 10 are: 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. Service users know their assessed and changing needs and personal goals are reflected in their individual Plan. Service users make decisions about their lives with assistance as needed. Service users are consulted on, and participate in, all aspects of life in the home. Service users are supported to take risks as part of an independent lifestyle. Service users know that information about them is handled appropriately, and that their confidences are kept. The Commission considers Standards 6, 7 and 9 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 6, 7, 8, and 9. Quality in this outcome area is good. Each service user has a plan of care that meets their individual assessed needs. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: Service user files have been compiled from the assessments and planned care details. As part of “ person centred support” each file is used by staff to ensure that the individual is understood and appropriately supported. Servie user involvement in this process is difficult due to their disability and non verbal status. There was evidence of involvement of relatives and a designated advocate, who was involved throughout the resettlement process, in the planning of support and care. This process is planned to continue to encompass all future arrangements for the service suers. Although a survey 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 was not completed by the advocate on behalf of those in the home she infomed me on the telephone that she was more than satisfied with the care that has been given so far. During the visit I observed members of staff as they offered support to assist individual service users to chose and make decisions about daily life. This new approach is in its early stages but already service users are reported to be responding to the new situation and enjoying the life in the home. I saw them smiling, laughing and being pleased with their interaction with staff. Staff noticed that service users like to come back to 44a Harriotts Lane ; this was evident particularly after a visit to the old placement to meet up with their long term friends. Care plans are reviewed and staff keep a record of how each service user spends her time. A keyworker system is in place; the relatives are involved and there is specialist medical, therapist , nursing and social care involvement in treatment programmes. These will continue to be available from the previous provider. Risk assessments are in place for safety and include the use of a box type bed and kirton chair with a lap strap. These are used to manage the behaviour and safety of one servie user who has a history of self harm. Statements are in place concerning the use of this equipment. All are aware of the use of the equipment that is for the safety of the service user. She clearly feels safer and more comfortable when using her special chair and bed. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Lifestyle The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. Service users have opportunities for personal development. Service users are able to take part in age, peer and culturally appropriate activities. Service users are part of the local community. Service users engage in appropriate leisure activities. Service users have appropriate personal, family and sexual relationships. Service users’ rights are respected and responsibilities recognised in their daily lives. Service users are offered a healthy diet and enjoy their meals and mealtimes. The Commission considers Standards 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12, 13,14,15, 16 and 17. Quality in this outcome area is good. Service users have an opportunity to experience a more appropriate lifestyle in this small care home. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: Some staff are aware of makaton and sign useage ; these were not used by servie users in their previous placement but the manager plans to develop use to improve service user ability to communicate and participate more in activities of the home and their leisure. None of the service users is able to have a job or participate in education or training. An activities programme is in place; service users’ preferences and interests are noted in their individual plans. They are regularly taken out on trips, shopping expeditions, and wheelchair walks to areas of interest near the home. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 Service users are unable to respond to questions as all non-verbal but I observed that they can make their preferences clear, one service user was seen to be able to make clear choices. Staff are enthusiastic about improving service users lifestyle and are seeking new ways to understand the responses they make. There was evidence that service users are encouraged to have regular contact with their family and keep in touch with friends. Arrangements had been made to take all the service users to meet with friends from their previous home; in addition a party had been held for them in this new setting. No volunteers are currently used in this service. The service users have brought personal possessions with them to make it feel like home and staff are working to ensure that each person has all the aids and amenities possible to give quality of life. This was illustrated by the manager’s loan of her own music system to provide quality music to a service ser who is very responsive to music. Service users were seen to enjoy their lunchtime meal; staff know their likes and dislikes and were available to discretely assist people to eat with dignity. The menu is wholesome, varied, well balanced and suited to service users’ needs. Person centred support covers all areas of life: practical areas of essential skills, daily living skills, personal care and presentation, community involvement and leisure. Different living styles are offered to meet the needs of the service users living in the home. Each service user is treated as an individual. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Personal and Healthcare Support The intended outcomes for Standards 18 - 21 are: 18. 19. 20. 21. Service users receive personal support in the way they prefer and require. Service users’ physical and emotional health needs are met. Service users retain, administer and control their own medication where appropriate, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. The ageing, illness and death of a service user are handled with respect and as the individual would wish. The Commission considers Standards 18, 19, and 20 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18, 19, and 20. Quality in this outcome area is good. Service users receive the support and personal care needed to meet their physical, emotional and spiritual needs in a way that is appropriate and pleasing to them. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The Manager is working with the community team of the local primary care trust to develop a health action plan for each person. The service has good relationships with Community Team for people with learning disabilities (CTPLD), including community nurses. In addition arrangements have been made for the provision of service with the local doctor, district nurse and a dentist. Care staff support service users to access their appointments. The home keeps a record of visits by healthcare professionals; none visited during the inspection visit. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 15 Some of the service users had arrived with specialist equipment such as chair, bed and hoist to enable safe living and transfers. There are plans to improve moving and handling by the addition of ceiling hoists to the property. The manager is aware of the need to regularly service and replace such equipment as it becomes worn. Each individual had her own key worker. Their role includes assisting the service user to choose individual clothing to suit personality and taste. The experienced staff were seen to treat service users respectfully and with regard to privacy and dignity, especially when carrying out transfers into the home’s transport vehicle. Again, staff confirmed that they had been trained to do this. No medication was due for administration during this unannounced visit so I was not able to observe staff practice, although they informed me that they had been trained. Medication records were seen, the MAR charts were complete, receipt and return of medication is recorded and a pharmacist gives advice. The medication storage facilities meet the required standards. The manger was advised to consider a long-term strategy for the management of service user serious illness and aging. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Concerns, Complaints and Protection The intended outcomes for Standards 22 – 23 are: 22. 23. Service users feel their views are listened to and acted on. Service users are protected from abuse, neglect and self-harm. The Commission considers Standards 22, and 23 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 22 and 23. Quality in this outcome area is good. The management has arranged to safeguard service users. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: An advocate works on behalf of the three individual service users who live in the home. A complaints procedure is in place and displayed. There is a record book for complaints kept in home, one complaint had been received and managed appropriately within the allotted time scale. Staff have been trained and know about procedure for safeguarding of vulnerable adults. The home has an up to date copy of the Local Authority multi disciplinary procedure for the protection of vulnerable adults. Management of service users’ personal allowance was reviewed; policy and proceddures are in place and were seen in operation. A locked cash system was seen; invoices of spending are kept . The manager has details of service users’ financial accounts and is engaging with relatives to encourage spending to benefit service user lifestyle; for example a quality music system for a blind disabled service user who clearly enjoys her music. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 Environment The intended outcomes for Standards 24 – 30 are: 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30.

Service users’ toilets and bathrooms provide sufficient privacy and meet their individual needs. Shared spaces complement and supplement service users’ individual rooms. Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. The home is clean and hygienic. The Commission considers Standards 24, and 30 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29 and 30; all standards were included for this new service. Quality in this outcome area is good. The accommodation for this new service has been chosen for its purpose. Service users live in an environment that is homely, comfortable and adapted to meet their needs. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The property is new build bungalow built to a high specification; it has been adapted and designed in order to meet the specific needs of service users. It is attractive, clean, spacious and light. Situated in a residential area of Ashtead there is good access to local facilities. Each service user has a single bedroom. The amount of personal possessions varies according to family involvement. The manager wants to develop the individuality of each room and is working with the relatives to achieve this. Some bedrooms are to be fitted with an overhead track hoist to assist moving and handling. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Emphasis has been placed upon the need to ensure that access for wheelchair dependant clients has been fully addressed, along with attention to all health and safety issues. There is a range of communal areas where service users can meet, socialise and interact, as well as carry out various leisure activities. The large bathroom has been fitted with equipment to assist the disabled. A clinical waste collection is in place; the utility room is small but contains a washing machine that is capable of sluice and hot wash cycles to an infection control standard. There are plans to enlarge the room when application is made to alter the building. There is central heating in the building that was pleasantly warm; however, some radiator surfaces are hot to touch and present a safety hazard. A risk assessment is required and a plan for appropriate provision of safety measures. The rear garden is secluded and being developed with more planting and plans for a larger patio. The manager has sought legal and community advice to address a problem of antagonism from a neighbour. 44a Harriotts Lane DS0000070176.V353589.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36.
