What the care home does well The care and general running of this home is led by the service users who live there, with very good support from a strong staff team, and an effective registered manager. There is a welcoming and homely atmosphere at the house and the environment is very comfortably decorated and furnished. There is an excellent rapport between service users and staff, and service users are able to take control of their own lives. Service users said that some of best things about living at the home are the chance to be more independent, having a good choice of leisure activities and plenty to do, and being listened to and taken seriously. What has improved since the last inspection? Since the last inspection visit there have been many improvements to the environment such as general redecoration and new carpets fitted in service users bedrooms; new security lights fitted in the grounds of the house; all radiators have been covered; the kitchen has been refurbished, and the garage has been converted in to an extra room, which is used as a dinning room. This was carried out following a suggestion from the service users. Service users and staff also said that care plans are now typed, which makes them easier to read and neater. What the care home could do better: No requirements or recommendations were made at this inspection and service users continue to receive a very good service. CARE HOME ADULTS 18-65

Desboro House DS0000002351.V323320.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 23 ‘Pointers Committee’ (also see Standards 22-23). They said that one person from the house attends and speaks on their behalf, then comes back and tells them what has happened. Throughout the visit service users demonstrated that they are very aware of all aspects of the running of the home and the issues that effect them. There is a comprehensive quality assurance process in place, which includes an annual service user, relative and other stakeholders satisfaction survey. The outcomes of the previous survey showed that everyone is generally very pleased with the services provided. There is a detailed monthly house audit carried out by a manager from another area within the organisation, and then an action plan is developed to address any issues highlighted. A recent monitoring visit by the Local Authority Contracting Department gave a positive overview of the house and the care provision and made no recommendations for improvement. The ‘Pointers Committee’ (see Standards 22-23) also conducts service user surveys about specific issues such as communication. Service users demonstrated a very clear knowledge of fire safety issues including the evacuation procedure and assembly point. On arrival at the house the inspector was shown the fire exits and told where the assembly point was in case there was a fire during the visit. There is an up to date fire risk assessment in place, and records show that there are monthly evacuation practices, weekly equipment and alarm checks, and monthly emergency lighting checks. Records show weekly testing of water temperatures, and weekly observation checks of wires, bulbs and plugs. Testing is carried out regularly on both personal electrical equipment and general house equipment, such as TV’s, hifi’s and hairdryers. Separate records are kept for the testing, with the personal equipment records being kept in service user files. There are records for regular boiler and Legionella checks. Pre inspection information shows that there are policies in place for substances that could be hazardous to health, quality assurance, equal opportunities, fire safety, record keeping and general health and safety. Policies for fire safety, communication and complaints are available in DVD format, and the registered manager said that DVD’s are currently being developed for bullying and person centred planning. There are also data sheets for substances that could be hazardous to health and environmental risk assessments. The risk assessments include issues such as the use of outside contractors, walking with hot drinks, use of aerosols, use of stepladders, power failures and wearing sharp jewellery at work. There is evidence that the risk assessments are reviewed on a monthly basis. Desboro House DS0000002351.V323320.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 24 SCORING OF OUTCOMES
