What the care home does well The acting manager was good at visiting people before they moved in, to make sure the home could provide the care they needed. A person who had recently moved into the home who told us they were "quite happy with the move", "staff were very helpful and supported me when needed". They are also good at writing down what care people needed and making sure they received it. The residents at the home felt the care they received was good. Comments such as the staff are "kind" and "lovely" were made to us frequently. Meals and mealtimes were considered to be an important part of the residents` day. The dining rooms are nice places to sit, eat and meet with other residents. The residents said that they really enjoyed their meals. Residents were satisfied with the choice of meals and the way they were cooked and served. The home has an experienced and enthusiastic team of staff who work well together and enjoy taking part in training and development sessions. The staff are motivated and keen to ensure that residents receive high standards of care. The acting manager ran the home well. She made sure she checked out staff before they started working at the home and gave them training and support to make sure they did the job to the best of their ability. What has improved since the last inspection? All of the previous requirements and recommendations from the last inspection have been complied with. Record keeping has improved a lot. The acting manager can now demonstrate more clearly to us the care provided at the home. Care plans are well ordered and easy to read. This makes it a lot easier for staff to keep up to date with residents` changing needs. New records are being used to make sure that residents with poor appetites are checked regularly and the staff take any action needed. Staff supervision is now being recorded and sufficient support is provided to staff in developing their skills in writing the new style care plans being implemented. What the care home could do better: The environment of the home could be improved in several ways. There was smell of stale urine in the main lounge and action should be taken to eradicate this. The corridors are rather sparse and would benefit from pictures or prints being hung on the walls. The doors of the residents` personal accommodation would benefit from personal signage not only to aid the resident identifying their own room but also to improve the effect on the environment. Several residents asked if a facility could be created in the home for an area away from the main lounge, to have a quiet place to sit in and meet with their visitors. When the owner appoints a permanent manager, the new manager needs to apply to the Commission of Social Care Inspection to become registered, which is a legalrequirement to ensure that she is fit to manage the home.

We (the Commission of Social Care Inspection) undertook this key inspection, which included an unannounced visit to the home. The staff at the home did not know the visit was going to take place. This visit was just one part of the inspection. We also looked at other information we had about the home. Before the visit the acting home manager was asked to complete a questionnaire to provide up to date information about Ashbourne Nursing Home. We sent our questionnaires out to people who live in the home, their families and staff in order to find out their views. Other information we had received since our last major inspection at the home was also reviewed. Care Homes for Older People
Page 6 of 28 During our visit, we looked at various records and walked round the home. We spoke with a number of people who live at Ashboune Nursing Home including relatives who were visiting whilst we were there and staff. They gave us their views about the home. We have received one complaint about the service from Social Services. The contents were discussed with the acting manager and Area Manager. The complaint centred around lack of staff causing disruption to the lives and choices available to residents. We are assured that following a successful recruitment of new staff this has now been resolved. An Expert by Experience was also used at this inspection. This is a person who, because of their shared vision of using services and ways of communicating, visit a service with us to help us get a picture of what it is like to live in and use a service. The expert stayed with us for most of the day and spoke to the people living here to get their views about what it was like. We have included some of the things residents told the expert in the body of this report. What the care home does well: What has improved since the last inspection? What they could do better: The environment of the home could be improved in several ways. There was smell of stale urine in the main lounge and action should be taken to eradicate this. The corridors are rather sparse and would benefit from pictures or prints being hung on the walls. The doors of the residents personal accommodation would benefit from personal signage not only to aid the resident identifying their own room but also to improve the effect on the environment. Several residents asked if a facility could be created in the home for an area away from the main lounge, to have a quiet place to sit in and meet with their visitors.

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 and the support they need. People who stay at the home only for intermediate care, have a clear assessment that includes a plan on what they hope for and want to achieve when they return home. People can decide whether the care home can meet their support and accommodation needs. This is because they, or people close to them, have been able to visit the home and have got full, clear, accurate and up to date information about the home. 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 them 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. Admissions are not made to the home until a full needs assessment has been undertaken to confirm that they can meet the needs of the individual. Evidence: Admissions are not made to the home until a full needs assessment has been undertaken. Care files contain relevant paperwork, including social work assessments and reports from health care professionals prior to a person choosing to stay at the home. The manager also carries out an assessment, which includes a visit to see the person in his or her own home or while in hospital. These measures ensure that admissions to the home only take place if the service is confident staff have the skills, ability and qualifications to meet the assessed needs of the prospective resident. This results in successful placements.
Care Homes for Older People Page 11 of 28 Evidence: We spoke with a person who had recently moved into the home who told us they were quite happy with the move, staff were very helpful and supported me when needed. Standard 6 does not apply to Ashbourne Nursing Home, as they do not provide intermediate care services. Care Homes for Older People Page 12 of 28 Health and personal care

If they cannot manage their medicine, the care home supports them with it, in a safe way. People’s right to privacy is respected and the support they get from staff is given in a way that maintains their dignity. If people are approaching the end of their life, the care home will respect their choices and help them 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.

Evidence: Individual records are kept for each resident and contain comprehensive information relating to all aspects of health, personal and social care needs of the residents. From this information an individual plan of care is drawn up with the involvement of the resident or their relative to ensure that the care needs are met. Significant progress has been made in relation to the care plan documentation and methods of recording how the needs of the residents will be met. Risk assessments were in place and covered such areas as moving and handling, nutrition, pressure sores, the use of bed rails and falls. Risk assessments and the care plans were evaluated as and when required but at least on a monthly basis.

Staff at the home have good policies and proceedures for storing and giving medicines Staff follow robust systems to make sure that medication records are fully completed, contain required entries and are signed by appropriate staff. Staff were observed delivering care in a sensitive and respectful manner, addressing residents by their preferred name, knocking on doors and enabling residents to maintain as much independence as possible. Inspection of the care files identified that the residents had access to health care professionals, such as dentists, opticians, chiropodists Tissue Viability Nurse and district nurses. Equipment necessary for the prevention and treatment of pressure sores was readily available within the home. Continence aids were in use and the staff were aware of how to contact the continence nurse advisor for advice, if deemed necessary.

The activities person has given thought to arranging social activities to suit individual needs and preferences. Social needs are assessed in detail when a resident is admitted and residents spoken with were pleased with the varied programme of social events. We did note that in the lounge there were two television sets showing the same programme about house buying with no evident interest from any of the residents. One comment made was that background appropriate music would be appreciated. Visitors can be seen in the privacy of the residents bedroom although many choose to
Care Homes for Older People Page 15 of 28 Evidence: sit in one of the communal areas. Residents told us that a quiet area away from the main lounge would be appreciated to give the opportunity to sit quietly and read or to meet with visitors without going back to their personal accommodation. Residents are encouraged to bring personal possessions into the home. Many of their bedrooms were highly personalised with small pieces of their own furniture, pictures, photographs and ornaments. One of our colleagues, called and Expert by Experience, dined with the residents and observed breakfast and lunch being served in the dining area. The meals served were of ample portion and looked appetising. The tables were nicely set with napkins, cruets and cold drinks. Staff discreetly assisted some residents to eat.There was always a choice of meal at lunchtime and evening. The menus were inspected and they looked varied and nutritious. morning and afternoon drinks were served and milky drinks were provided at supper time.

Records showed that any complaints made had been fully investigated and responded to appropriately. A staff member said, If a resident wanted to make a complaint, I would go to the manager and give her the information. A visiting relative said if necessary she would talk with the Manager or any of the staff as I feel they would act on what I was concerned about but said that matters were usually dealt with straight away, so there was no need to complain. One complaint has been made directly to the Commission for Social Care Inspection. The details were discussed with the manager on our visit and concluded that the complaint was partly substantiated and remedial action has taken place to resolve the issues Not all staff have undertaken training in relation to the Protection of Vulnerable Adults, but records examined indicated that staff needing this training have been given a place on the courses run by Rochdale Metropolitan Borough Council.

This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this service experience adequate quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Areas in the home where odours are present need to be addressed to provide a comfortable and pleasant environment for the residents to live. Evidence: The home is purpose built and accommodation is provided on two levels. It is fully accessible to people who are physically disabled and is fitted with aids and adaptations to promote independence. The main entrance hall is spacious and there is ample information available regarding the home and the service it provides. The home is well maintained, decorated to a good standard and was seen to be generally clean and tidy during the site visit. There is a garden and car parking space to the front and the home has a central patio area with easy access on all sides of the home. A partial tour of the building was undertaken, two bathrooms, a shower room and six bedrooms were viewed. The corridors were seen to be emulsioned and none had pictures or prints on the walls. Some bedroom doors had the name of the resident but more thought should be given to personalising the individuals accommodation. Bedrooms viewed had individual items and were homely. A resident said, My room is lovely and I have all the comforts I need Bedrooms have door locks and storage space for valuable items. All rooms have a call system with a hand held buzzer to call for assistance. The bathrooms were clean and tidy and hot water temperatures are

The main lounge was comfortably furnished but there was a stale smell of urine present in parts of the sitting areas. Two T.V. sets were switched on at opposite ends of the lounge but we were unable to find anyone who was interested in Homes under the Hammer. Background music may be preferred to the constant T.V. We asked several of the residents, who had lived there a few months, what changes would they like, none of them wanted organised activities, but all of them would appreciate a quiet room. They are free to stay in their rooms whenever they wish but do not like to be isolated. The general wish seemed to be for a room without TV for residents to be able to sit quietly with their visitors or with other residents to chat or maybe read. Three residents told us that laundry was done regularly and returned to their rooms with no problems. The home has a well equipped laundry and there was evidence of gloves and aprons for staff use.

The manager is in the process of re-organising all of the personnel files so that they are easier to read and information contained in them more accessible. A newly recruited carer said she had been given an induction to the home and spoke about the content of the programme and the support she had received. The carer felt the induction process was well organized and thorough enabling her to get to know the residents in the home as well as becoming familiar with the way the home was run. We examined the rotas and found that the staffing levels were sufficient for the number of residents in the home and to meet their needs.
