The quality rating for this service is 3 star. This means the people who use this service experience excellent quality outcomes This unannounced inspection took place on January 2009 over a period of eight hours. This was to assess if people’s needs were being met at the home. A tour of the premises took place and included a majority of the bedrooms on the three units and shared areas such as the lounges and dining rooms, shared bathrooms and toilets. The manager, several staff, relatives and people cared for were spoken with and their views contributed to the inspection of the home. This visit was just one part of the inspection. Before the visit the home was also asked to complete an annual quality assurance assessment (AQAA) to provide up to date information about services at the home. Other information since the last key inspection was also reviewed. Feedback was given to the manager at the end of the visit. What the service does well: A senior staff member visits people wherever possible to carry out an assessment of their care needs before they move into the home to make sure their needs can be met there. Individualised care and attention is provided and there is a welcoming, cheerful environment so that people who are cared for feel comfortable and at home. Residents’ plans of care were well documented and reflected each resident’s individual needs. The home had an established staff team who were keen for standards to be maintained. We found that people receive care and support which matches their expectations. Staff are quick to respond to changes in peoples health care needs and have an excellent understanding of the importance of treating people as individuals and promoting their dignity and privacy. Meals were varied and reflected each person’s preference. They offered choice and variety. The home provides a varied range of activities so that the people who live in the home have enough to do.

People who were spoken with felt this was a good idea as it made them feel welcome. Care files for two new people who recently came to live at the home were looked at. Assessments of their needs had been completed by the manager before they were admitted so that they knew their needs could be met at the home. This information was used to write a care plan for the person to let staff know what their needs were and how they could meet them. All risk assessments for areas such as nutrition, moving and handling, dependency, physical and social needs were completed within six hours of admission.

This showed us that people could expect to receive the care that they need in a way that they would choose. We saw that each person who lives in the home has a plan of care, which gives staff clear instructions on how to provide care in a manner, which people preferred. We saw that staff had the skills to care for people properly by providing them with specialised equipment to reduce the risk of their health deteriorating and by consulting with doctors and other health care professionals when their needs changed. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Care plans were looked at for six people who lived at the home. A selection was taken from each unit. All care plans looked at contained good information so that staff would know what the persons needs were and how to meet them. Individual plans clearly record peoples’ personal and healthcare needs and detail how they will be delivered. Choices were recorded such as when people liked to get up, how they like to spend their day and spiritual needs and how these were met. Risk assessments were in place for areas such as bedrails, moving and handling, nutrition, dependency and pressure area risk. Care plans had been reviewed each month and these reviews were detailed so that staff would know what changes had taken place and gave a good indication of what had happened to the person during the month. Daily records were also detailed and painted a picture of how the person spent their day. Visits from other health care professionals such as G.P’s, chiropodists and dentists were recorded so that staff would know when these had taken place. Care plans are audited each month by trained staff and the manager so that areas of concern can be acted up on immediately. The atmosphere at the home was warm and staff were observed to have good relationships with the people in their care. There was good-humoured banter between staff and people living and visiting the home. When spoken with staff were aware of the needs of people and knew their individual likes and dislikes. Staff respect peoples’ preferences and have knowledge about individual personal needs when providing support, including intimate care. A hospitality table was present in the main entrance with tea and coffee making facilities and homemade baking and biscuits on offer. Relatives felt that this was a good idea as they could help themselves without having to ask staff. One said, “ It is just another way of making you feel welcome” Relatives spoken with said” the staff are always friendly” “ nothing is too much trouble” “ the manager and staff look after us as well as our relatives” People who live at the home were spoken with and they said” The staff are wonderful” “ staff are like a big family” “ I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else” “ we have a lot of laughter in this place and I feel that is important” “ I have made friends here with staff” Medication management was looked at on all three units and this was found to be satisfactory. All medicine administration sheets had been completed, any medications that stated” one to two tablets, had the number of tablets given recorded so that staff knew how many tablets the person had received during a twenty four hour period. Controlled drugs were looked at and these had been recorded correctly. A check of these drugs was completed at every shift change by the trained nurses. Audits of medications were completed by the manager on a monthly basis so that any errors were identified and dealt with quickly.

JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 12,13,14,15 People who use this service experience excellent outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using available evidence including a visit to this service. People who live at Clayton Manor are able to enjoy a full and stimulating lifestyle with a variety of options to choose from. EVIDENCE: We looked at the homes AQAA which told us that the provision of activities on offer is varied and takes in to account the needs and wishes of the people who live at the home. The activities co-ordinators are constantly updating and reviewing the activities provided and have started to involve our residents in activities with residents of other homes, either by taking residents out or inviting other residents in, this has proved to be a popular initiative. When we visited we found this to be true. The home employs two activity co-ordinators and we saw that a variety of activities are available on a daily basis for people to join in if they choose. When we asked people who live at the home they said they could choose to join in or not. The home has sought the views of people who live at the home and considered their varied interests when planning the routines of daily living. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 An X factor competition has recently taken place between the home and another home in the area.

People who live at Clayton Manor were taken by mini-bus and said they really enjoyed it. Staff members and their families acted as judges taking on the character of the celebrity judges from the TV series. A Christmas ball was arranged in Congleton town hall inviting people from other local care homes. The students from a local high school dressed in black and white to act as waitresses and waiters to serve food and drinks to people who live at the home and their relatives. Photographs have been taken of these events and people were keen to show them to us and to talk about them. “ The staff really worked hard “ “ it was lovely to get dressed up and go out” “ we had a lovely time and it was good to see the young people “ Several people are taken to a local church to attend a service of their choice and members of the clergy from different nominations attend the home to give communion for those that are not able to go out. Other activities on offer are pub lunches and evening meals, visits to local coffee shops and cafes, cinema afternoons with ice cream and popcorn. One to one sessions are provided for people who cannot or do not wish to join in group activities.

The manager had recently had training in the system, which is called NUTMEG. A cooked breakfast is on offer each day and the main meal is in the evening with a choice of hot and cold snacks fro lunch such as baked potatoes with various fillings, cheese on toast sandwiches or salads. The evening meal was fish and chips. Separate menu choices are available for the Springfield unit, which is for younger people, and extra snacks can be given between meals for the Woodlands View, which has people with dementia. Food is served in the dining rooms on each unit, which were set with table cloths and cruet sets. Staff were seen to assist people who needed help in a sensitive way. People who live at the home said the “ food is really good” “ you get plenty to eat” One person said “ I have trouble finding food I like but I am a fussy eater” The manager and chef have had meetings with this person to try to find the types of food they would prefer.

We have made this judgement using available evidence including a visit to this service. People know how to complain and believe staff will take action to address any concerns that they may have. EVIDENCE: We looked at the homes AQAA. This told us that all staff have had training in how to protect peoples rights and that training had also been given about the homes complaints policy. Staff confirmed this to be true on the surveys that they sent us before we visited and we saw certificates, which showed us when the training had taken place. Clayton Manor has a complaints procedure, which is contained in information given to people when they move into the home. People who live and visit the home said they knew how to make a complaint. People commented “I never have reason to complain about anything, however I’m sure they would address it right away if I did”. There have been no complaints made to the home or CSCI since the last inspection. The home had policies on the prevention of adult abuse, whistle blowing, challenging behaviour and harassment. The safeguarding procedure is how the local council and other agencies involved respond to and manage allegtaions of abuse against vulnerable people. Safeguarding is a part of the induction and NVQ training and staff had undertaken training on Adult Protection.

Pictures and ornaments are displayed in key areas. A variety of lighting has been used effectively to provide well lit areas including standing lamps etc in corners of rooms which helps to promote a comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. We walked round the home and looked at all the communal areas including bathrooms and some bedrooms. Bathrooms have been painted in bright colours with pictures on the walls. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 New furniture has been purchased for the lounge on Woodlands unit with some reclining chairs for added comfort.

Service users’ needs are met by the numbers and skill mix of staff. Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission consider all the above are key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 27,28,29,30 People who use this service experience good outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using available evidence including a visit to this service. People receive care and support from skilled staff that they like EVIDENCE: We looked at the homes AQAA which told us that a variety of staff are employed to provide care and support to the people who live at the home and that these staff are recruited correctly. We found this to be true. We had visited the home previously to check all staff files and found two files with poor references. The home had immediately acted to rectify this. We had also visited to check staff training in relation to fire safety and found that this was up to date. We found that staff are provided in sufficient numbers to meet people needs and people who live in the home told us that they believed this was true. People told us that if they ask for help this is provided ”quickly depending on the time of day, if they are getting people up or putting them to bed you may have to wait a little longer but not very long ” and that they believed that the “ staff are excellent, you can’t fault them” and that “ they are very kind and caring”. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Staff told us “Yes there are enough staff. Staffing levels are sufficient to ensure that a high level of nursing care is maintained” and “ We have a large number of staff working well together as a team.” We saw that almost all the care staff working in the home have achieved a national vocational qualification in care. This shows that staff have had formal training to carry out their role and is above the expectations of the national minimum standards. We saw that staff training is ongoing and that all staff have completed mandatory training in key subjects. This means that all staff have been given the skills to promote peoples health and welfare. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Management and Administration The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 38 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. Service users live in a home which is run and managed by a person who is fit to be in charge, of good character and able to discharge his or her responsibilities fully. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. The home is run in the best interests of service users. Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping, policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users and staff are promoted and protected. The Commission considers Standards 31, 33, 35 and 38 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31,33,35,38 People who use this service experience excellent outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using available evidence including a visit to this service. People live in a well managed, safe home where their opinion matters. EVIDENCE: The manager at Clayton Manor has been in post since June 2008. She is an experienced nurse who has worked at the home as Deputy manager for quite some time. She has also had experience in managing a home for the same company in this area. She has a Diploma of Higher Education in Gerontological Nursing and a BSc. (Hons) in Nursing Studies and is undertaking the Registered Managers Award. She has applied to be registered with CSCI. Clayton Manor Nursing Home DS0000018844.V373948.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 We looked at the AQAA which told us that” there is effective communication throughout the home with regular staff and management meetings. However staff both nights and days, have regular access to the Manager during their normal working hours to discuss any matters professional or personal. The management team feel that this encourages the staff to feel that they are listened to and their opinions are valuable to the care of the residents.Thus enabling them to feel more involved in the care they provide and to accept ownership of the care resulting in a higher standard of care for the service users.” When we visited we found this to be true and staff said “ the manager is very supportive” “ she is always there for anything you want to talk to her about” People who live at the home meet formally every three months but have access to the manager at any time. Minutes of meetings were seen by us when we visitied and people who live at the home said “ we can see the manager any time, she talks to us every day” “ the door to her office is never shut and we can go in any time” Relatives said” the manager is always available with a friendly smile” “ the staff look after us as well as our relatives.” We viewed records which showed that monthly checks are carried out on all systems used in the home which support people with their needs and care. This incudes care plans, medications, risk assesmnets , processes etc. so that any shorfalls can be highlighted and actedon quickly. This is good practise and shows a commitment from the home to provide a good service. We looked at how people are supported to manage their weekly personal allowance. The home actively encourages people to manage their own financial affairs however in some instances some staff support is required. We found that in these cases senior management and administration staff over see the management of such affairs. We found that clear records and receipts are kept showing what transactions had taken place and how money had been spent. We looked at how people who live in the home are consulted about the service. Regular residents meetings are being held and topics, which affect people’s lives such as provision of food and meals, are discussed. Questionnaires are sent out every six months and the results of these are put in the service user guide so the information is shared with everyone. We looked at how the home manages the health and safety of the people who live there and the staff who work there. We found that regular checks are taking place on all equipment (including fire fighting) and that outside contractors also visit the service regularly to make sure that equipment is functioning correctly.
