One inspector carried out this Key Unannounced Inspection, which took place on the 12th December 2007 for six hours. The home is registered for sixteen places, at the time of inspection all places were full. Prior to the inspection the manager submitted an Annual Quality Assurance Assessment this gives information regarding the home and services provided. Pre-inspection work was carried out on the information received and other relevant documentation, for example analysis of statutory notifications and complaint records. During the inspection, documentation and records were examined, for example medication, complaints, accident records, staff rotas and staff training files. Two care plans were cross-referenced with other relevant documentation relating to those people who use the service, to evaluate how well their care needs were met. A tour of the premises and direct observation of staff interaction with people who use the service was carried out throughout the visit. Information was gathered from as many different individuals as possible that had contact with people within the home, including individual interviews with the manager and six members of staff. Two people within the home who receive the service were also spoken to. We sent out surveys prior to the inspection, four were sent to relatives, two were received back, four were sent to professionals who had contact with the home none were received back. They were asked to comment on the standard of care, staff skills, attitude, and how the needs of people using the service needs were met. We would like to thank all the staff, relatives and people receiving services within the home for their co-operation in the inspection process. Any issues or concerns that were raised were discussed with the manager at the end of the inspection.

Those staff spoken feel the manager is very supportive and encourages them to complete training for their development. Beech Tree Hall DS0000008012.V355699.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 Quality assurance systems were in place to monitor some aspects of the quality of care and services within the home, for example care plans and medication procedures. The manager said she would be sending questionnaires out in the new year to parents, relatives and stakeholders to gain their view on the services they provide. The owner continued to carry out monitoring visits, and complete regulation 26 reports. These state what he found during his visit and who he spoke to, all were available at the home. The home employs the services of Lloyd’s employment Law and Health and Safety, who visit the home, carry out audits and make recommendations if required. The annual quality assurance assessment gave information regarding the maintenance of equipment, it stated this all had been serviced and maintained, which was confirmed by the manager. Fire safety procedures were in place, records examined showed they were current and up to date. This keeps people living and working at the home safe.
