These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People are confident that the care home can support them. This is because there is an accurate assessment of their needs that they, or people close to them, have been involved in. This tells the home all about them, what they hope for and want to achieve, and the support they need. People can decide whether the care home can meet their support and accommodation needs. This is because they, and people close to them, can visit the home and get full, clear, accurate and up to date information. If they decide to stay in the home they know about their rights and responsibilities because there is an easy to understand contract or statement of terms and conditions between the person and the care home that includes how much they will pay and what the home provides for the money. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service
. Information is available to help people decide whether the home can provide a service to meet their needs, however amendments are needed. A clear assessment process that takes into account the needs of prospective house members and the needs of existing household members is completed before people move into the home. Evidence: A Statement of Purpose and Service User Guide are available to the people who live in the home but do not contain the specific details of what 8 Piggy Lane has to offer. The documents also have details of the CSCI and should be updated to include the details of the Care Quality Commission. The manager agreed to update the information to ensure the documents meet the Care Home Regulations and National Minimum Standards. One person who lives in the home benefits from the information presented within the current format, however the other people who live in the home are supported to gain an understanding of whats on offer in a one-to-one situation, ensuring people have
Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 13 of 31 Evidence: time to gain an understanding of whats available on a day to day basis. There is a vacancy at the home, with an individual currently expressing an interest to move into the home. Numerous assessments and information gathering is underway, with the individual being given opportunity to visit on a number of occasions to assess whether the service is able to meet their needs and whether the people currently living at Piggy Lane feel comfortable with the new person. The process also includes the views of people who support the individual currently to ensure the move is in the interest of all parties. The people who live in the home have license agreements with a housing provider and contracts for their support and care are held with the local authority and the Trust. Relatives or advocates are involved in the contracting process to assist individuals and ensure the rights are safeguarded. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 14 of 31 Individual needs and choices
These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People’s needs and goals are met. The home has a plan of care that the person, or someone close to them, has been involved in making. People are able to make decisions about their life, including their finances, with support if they need it. This is because the staff promote their rights and choices. People are supported to take risks to enable them to stay independent. This is because the staff have appropriate information on which to base decisions. People are asked about, and are involved in, all aspects of life in the home. This is because the manager and staff offer them opportunities to participate in the day to day running of the home and enable them to influence key decisions. People are confident that the home handles information about them appropriately. This is because the home has clear policies and procedures that staff follow. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service
. The needs and personal goals of people who live in the home are recorded within support plans of a high standard, although accuracy in recording in daily diaries needs to be improved. People are appropriately supported to make decisions and take risks. Evidence: We looked at the support plans of all of the people who live in home. The new manager of the home with the assistance of staff members has supported people to review their support plan and make the presentation of information unique to each person. The plans are based around the principles of Essential Lifestyle Plans (ELPs) which identifies and prioritises life choices by reflecting the individuals wishes. The support plans include excellent information about individuals life choices and personal care routines, they explain how much support the person needs and how to provide the support. How each person communicates is also included within support plans, When X says...it means...we should. Clear descriptors of response required from staff
Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 15 of 31 Evidence: are available within each plan. Specialist needs are recorded and staff are informed of identified needs and areas of training for staff can also be identified. Each plan represents the person as an individual presented creatively in a photo album style describing people in pictures, images and within written information. Each person also has a daily diary recording events within each day and at night to inform staff of the format of each persons day. We looked at the diaries of all of the people who live in the home and found that not all of the entries were signed by staff, at times the entires made were not a clear account of an event, X has been trying her luck with X this morning and everyone else this afternoon, or that there was very little detail about what an individual was engaged in or a descriptive account of the persons day. Future needs and goals are noted within reviews attended by individuals and people who they feel are important in their lives ensuring that the future goals accurately reflect the persons wishes. There remains clear descriptions of individuals abilities with regard to decision making and how to ensure people are given appropriate choices in relation to lifestyle and activities. From the evidence seen and comments received we consider that this home would be able to provide a service to meet the needs of individuals from various religious, racial or cultural backgrounds. Risk assessments remain detailed and regularly reviewed to support individuals needs and choices. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 16 of 31 Lifestyle
These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: Each person is treated as an individual and the care home is responsive to his or her race, culture, religion, age, disability, gender and sexual orientation. They can take part in activities that are appropriate to their age and culture and are part of their local community. The care home supports people to follow personal interests and activities. People are able to keep in touch with family, friends and representatives and the home supports them to have appropriate personal, family and sexual relationships. People are as independent as they can be, lead their chosen lifestyle and have the opportunity to make the most of their abilities. Their dignity and rights are respected in their daily life. People have healthy, well-presented meals and snacks, at a time and place to suit them. People have opportunities to develop their social, emotional, communication and independent living skills. This is because the staff support their personal development. People choose and participate in suitable leisure activities. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service
. People who live in the home are supported to take part in a variety of activities that reflect there individual needs and wishes. Evidence: The support plans for each person at the home provides lots of information about what people like to do and how they would like to be supported to engage in activities. Whilst we were at the home staff demonstrated a clear understanding of individual need and supported people to engage in activities described in their support plan. Many of the activities provided in-house are based on what people prefer to do in their leisure time; these included listening to music, watching TV, videos, DVDs, magazines, puzzles and games, arts and crafts, cooking, and hand and foot massage. Activities
Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 17 of 31 Evidence: outside the home include going to the shops, out for coffee, organised groups, for walks and organised trips to places people have identified they would like to visit. The local community remains very much part of the activity programme. There remains pictorial evidence of peoples outings and holidays and also of the contact people have with friends and family. Peoples rights and responsibilities continue to be respected and these are recognised in ELPs supported by the appropriate assessment of risk. We were in the home when lunch was being prepared and served. Lunch is generally a snack due to people going out during the day with the main meal eaten as a group in the evening. People are encouraged to take an active part in the selection of the daily menu, participating in shopping and preparation of meals. Regular drinks and snacks are available; a varied menu is provided, including fresh ingredients and individuals special dietary needs are catered for. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 18 of 31 Personal and healthcare support
These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People receive personal support from staff in the way they prefer and want. Their physical and emotional health needs are met because the home has procedures in place that staff follow. If people take medicine, they manage it themselves if they can. If they cannot manage their medicine, the care home supports them with it in a safe way. If people are approaching the end of their life, the care home will respect their choices and help them to feel comfortable and secure. They, and people close to them, are reassured that their death will be handled with sensitivity, dignity and respect, and take account of their spiritual and cultural wishes. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service
. The personal and healthcare needs of individuals are supported appropriately in accordance with assessed needs. Evidence: Personal and healthcare needs are described for all individuals within support plans. A number of plans in addition to ELPs hold clear guidance of how people wish their needs to be supported and it is apparent that a number of people are consulted when a person is unable to communicate their needs. This continues to ensure that staff can meet individual support needs in a manner in which people prefer to be supported. The records held are clear and showed us that people are supported to have regular health checks and attend healthcare appointments as necessary. Staff continue to support people to look after their medication. Individuals medicines are held securely in locked medicine cabinets located in each bedroom. The service continues to use a standard medication administration record (MAR) which is provided by a pharmacy and no errors or omissions were noted within the records held. Staff are trained and assessed to ensure they are competent to administer medication and a

. The people who live in the home are provided with the information about how to complain which enables individuals to have their views listened to and acted upon. The people live in the home are protected from abuse, neglect and self-harm through safeguarding guidance, appropriate staff training and staff awareness. Evidence: Information on how to make a complaint, which has been produced in a user-friendly format is available to the people who live in the home. No complaints have been recorded at the home since the last inspection visit. Clear policies and guidance regarding complaints, concerns and allegations are available to staff to ensure they are aware of how to respond appropriately to concerns raised by guests and their families.

A sensory room offers quiet space for relaxation. With individuals permission we were shown bedrooms, which we found to be individually furnished and reflected people personalities and interests. Changes have been made to the layout of an undersized bedroom and a ceiling mounted hoist has been installed, offering the individual more room and offering staff a safer working space when assisting the individual. Specialist equipment continues to be provided to those who need it. Toilets and bathrooms continue to offer privacy and comfortable safe areas in which to bathe.
