This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The quality rating for this service is 2 star. This means the people who use this service experience good quality outcomes. The inspection was carried out unannounced on the 17 July 2008. The registered manager was available throughout the inspection. The inspection report is based on information and evidence gathered by the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI) since the home was last inspected. Information relating to people recently admitted to the home was examined to see how people are supported as they move to the home. Staff files and other documentation, such as, complaints, medication, staff rotas, training records and health and safety records were also looked at as part of the inspection. Discussions were held with staff and people living there to seek their views about the service they received. The home provided the Commission with a completed self-assessment of how it felt it was meeting national minimum standards, with additional information about the service they provide and staffing information. The inspection also looked at information received by the Commission in relation to the home prior to the site visit. A number of comment cards were forwarded to people living there and to staff as a further means of seeking their views. The information received is included in this report. A tour of the home and grounds was also undertaken. What the service does well:

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): 2. Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Peoples’ needs, gaols and aspirations are clearly assessed and identified before they come to live at the home. EVIDENCE: In the period since the last inspection one person had moved to a nursing care home following a review of the persons care needs and one person had been admitted to the home. Procedures for supporting people considering a move to the home were well established. People are provided with relevant information by their placing authority and the home to help them make choices and decisions about where they wished to live. The homes updated Statement of Purpose and Service User’s Guide contained all the information required and was set out in a clear format. Before moving there, people are offered the opportunity to visit, have a meal and meet the people living there. Information is received from the care manager making the referral, which sets out the reasons why the person has been assessed as requiring residential care. Creative Support DS0000021607.V361151.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 10 This is supported by information gathered by the home, through its own pre admission planning. The manager of the home or senior support worker takes the opportunity to meet with the person to discuss their needs, answered any questions and gather information which will assist the home in planning programmes of support. This enables the home and the person to discuss their individual care needs, and consider the needs of people already living there before deciding whether the person’s needs can be met.

A relaxed and homely setting is achieved as people are free to plan how they spend their day. People are encouraged to be involved in domestic arrangements and were observed to be involved in domestic routines such as doing their own laundry, planning meal arrangements and other light domestic duties. Creative Support DS0000021607.V361151.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Mealtimes offered a range of choices and there was a good selection of fresh ingredients, fruit and vegetables. People were involved in the preparation of meals, with support from staff. Meals are prepared to meet individuals’ preferences and choices and staff produced records which were constantly being reviewed to record the personal choices and preferences of people. People on specialist diets are supported by the home. Each person has a day by day menu plan for the week and the records demonstrated that a varied and balanced diet was offered. In addition a chart is posted on the notice board to which people can make comments and requests regarding future choices, what they enjoyed and would like to try again. Individuals are directly involved in and consulted on the development of their plan of support. Records clearly set out the levels of support people require from staff. Staff demonstrated a good understanding of people’s personal and health care needs and provided support in a positive and caring way. The home also demonstrated that it supported people to move on to independent settings and also supported people to move to more appropriate care settings to meet their personal care needs. This was evidence as one person had moved to a nursing care home. Two completed comment cards were returned by people living at the home. One person commented, “ a dream come true living in Sidney Street”. Throughout the course of the inspection people were observed to freely move about the house, go out on planned activities and enter the home using their own keys. People in Allen Robert Close are supported to live independently and can prepare their own light snacks in their own kitchen, however they attend the main house for their meals.

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.

The degrees of support varied based on each person’s ability, with an emphasis on helping people to develop their personal skills and independence. Care plans look at a number of aspects of support using fourteen different headings. There are three recorded entries made per day by staff and each entry is recorded against the numbered heading. This gave detailed information against the assessed need. The level of recording was very positive. Creative Support DS0000021607.V361151.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 The home has established positive links with health care professionals and services to ensure people have the right level of support to meet their health care needs. Each person has an active health plan of professionals, such as a Community Psychiatric Nurses (CPNs), supporting them along with their social worker. A positive move forward for many people was the level of support offered to them to take responsibility for their own medication. Systems and procedures were in place to ensure medication is stored securely, assistance is provided where needed and that periodic monitoring is undertaken to ensure prescribing directions are being adhered to. Medication procedures were checked as part of the inspection and found to be in order and held securely. Staff keep records of medication when delivered to the home and returned to the pharmacist for disposal. Risk assessments were in place for all service users who self medicate. Hand written entries should be signed by the person making the entry and countersigned by another member of staff. The hand written entry did not record the quantity of medication received as a means of monitoring and accounting for stocks held by people. The supplying pharmacist provided training to staff on medication procedures. Creative Support DS0000021607.V361151.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 Concerns, Complaints and Protection

Staff are available to support people and internal procedures are supported by regular health and safety checks carried out by staff to ensure a safe environment is maintained. The manager was advised to monitor some domestic issues at the smaller premises. This related to storage of provisions and cleaning of some equipment in the kitchen area. One person spoke very positively about their experiences of living there and the feeling of independence they had at the house, knowing staff were there if they needed support.

This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Recruitment and selection procedures ensure people receive the support they require and are protected. EVIDENCE: The staff team consists of the Manager, a Support Coordinator, a senior support worker, eight support workers and 2 night support staff. Staff continue to be involved in domestic and catering arrangements as no designated ancillary staff are currently employed. The staff rota was seen and showed that a minimum of two staff are deployed throughout the day and night. During discussion with staff they said they might be asked to support people on outreach projects in the late evening, in the event of an emergency or incident. The indications were that this may not happen often, however, when such events do occur, it results in the registered service not maintaining its agreed levels of support and could have an adverse effect on the wellbeing of Creative Support DS0000021607.V361151.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 people at the address when levels are not maintained. This requires monitoring. Staff appeared very confident, skilled and clearly got on well with all the people living at both properties. Staff interacted well and were available to speak to people, support them and advise them on daily issues. The files of staff are held by the manager and she confirmed that each person working at the home had the required checks and references taken up before commencing employment.
