What the care home does well There are good care planning systems in place. Some of the service users at the home are non verbal and the service puts considerable effort into supporting their communication. Much information is presented in a pictorial form and often this is in the form of photographs of the actual service users which is really relevant. The home involves service users as much as possible in planning activities. Care staff who spoke with us felt that they were well-supported by the registered manager. Staff are appropriately trained to meet the assessed needs of the people who use the service. What has improved since the last inspection? Since the last inspection the registered manager has worked hard to ensure that the previous requirements and recommendations have been met. Risk assessments have been reviewed so that they identify a full range of possible risks to individuals, as previously required. Manual risk handling Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 assessments have also been carried out for the service users who use wheelchairs. The home’s kitchen and bathrooms have been replaced. Improvements have been made to the staff training and the organisation has ensured that staff receive all mandatory training. Staff now receive regular supervision, records from which are kept in the home. The manager has ensured that the electrical wiring testing has been undertaken. He has also ensured that the portable appliance testing has been carried out, as previously required. In addition, the registered manager has ensured that the care planning is more accessible to the people who use the service. Improvements have been made to the home’s medication system and the home has stopped re-ordering medication of which they have a good stock. The home has also produced a list of the initials (signatures) of staff who administer medication. What the care home could do better: Records of what food has been offered to the people who use the service must be improved. All perishable food should be labelled once opened to prevent food poisoning. The registered manager must ensure that any known allergies are recoded on individual medication administration charts in respect of each person who uses the service. One of the service users’ bedrooms requires repainting.

Care plans viewed were kept up-to-date and have been revised since the last inspection visit, to ensure that they contain all information in relation to the assessed needs of the people who use the service. All people have communication passports expressing how they would like others to communicate with them. This is in pictorial format prepared by themselves with asistance from staff. All our support plan materials are in pictorial format making it user friendly for the people who use the service. Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 10 The home supports decision making for non-verbal service users with pictorial information, some of which is photographs of the service users and therefore relevant for them. We saw evidence in the weekly residents meetings where service users decide what they would like to eat. Once a week they have a takeaway and they take it in turns to decide what kind to have. They also decide whether they want to go out and where, shopping decisions, etc. The service has put effort into producing information in a way which supports service users. This demonstrates respect for service users and commitment to upholding their dignity. Appropriate risk management systems were in place. Since the last inspection, the home’s risk assessments have been reviewed so that they identify a full range of possible risks to individuals, as previously required. Manual risk handling assessments have also been carried out for the service users who use wheelchairs. Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 11 Lifestyle The intended outcomes for Standards 11 - 17 are: 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17.

Service users’ rights are respected and responsibilities recognised in their daily lives. Service users are offered a healthy diet and enjoy their meals and mealtimes. The Commission considers Standards 12, 13, 15, 16 and 17 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): This is what people staying in this care home experience: 12, 13, 15, 16, 17. People using the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. The service supports a range of opportunities for service users and encourages family and community links. Improvements are required to the way the home records what food has been offered to the people who use the service and to the storage of perishable food products. EVIDENCE: All people living at the project have regular planned activities. Some people who use the service attend day services five days a week, whilst others attend them two to four days a week. People also have other planned activities in the evening & weekends where support is provided on a one-to-one basis. People are supported to use the local community i.e. the shops to purchase personal Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 12 items, the pubs for a drink, the leisure centre for swimming sessions etc. People who have contact with family members are supported to maintain those relationships. Information is shared with family members making them feel an integral part of their loved ones. People using the service have the freedom to do what they want to do. Due to the project being a shared home, weekly house meetings are held to ensure the views of all are taken into account. People have their own set of keys to front and bedroom doors giving them the freedom to move at their own choice and time. All bedroom doors are kept shut and only entered when people are in the house or allowed in. We spoke with one of the service users during our inspection visit and he said that he was happy with the level of activities on offer and the way staff working in the home were supporting him. He also said he like the food offered by the home. People who use the service usually choose what they would like to eat and they plans menus during house meetings which are conducted every week. The home has utilised input from a dietician for one person and this has helped to manage their weight issues. People are supported to participate in preparing their own meals. Appropriate food supplies were kept in the home during this unannounced inspection visit. When checking the home’s fridge we found a jar of mayonnaise and tomato ketchup, which had been opened, but not labelled. The registered manager must ensure that all perishable food products are labelled once opened to prevent food poisoning. In addition, records of food offered to the service users must be improved, as at the time of this inspection they appeared to be insufficient in detail. The registered person must ensure that the home maintains records of the food provided for service users in sufficient detail to enable any person inspecting the record to determine whether the diet is satisfactory, in relation to nutrition and otherwise, and of any special diets prepared for individual service users. Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 13 Personal and Healthcare Support The intended outcomes for Standards 18 - 21 are: 18. 19. 20. 21. Service users receive personal support in the way they prefer and require. Service users’ physical and emotional health needs are met. 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. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 18, 19, 20. People using the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. The home appropriately meets the health and personal needs of the people who use the service. The home’s medication systems are satisfactory, however a minor improvement is required to ensure that staff record any know allergies on each service user’s medication administration sheet. EVIDENCE: Following the review of the documentation kept in the home and discussion with the care staff and the registered manager, we were satisfied that the home was appropriately meeting the personal and health needs of the people who use the service. The registered manager stated that all people living at the project receive oneto-one support. The layout of the property helps to maintain people’s privacy and dignity when offering personal support. Due to some people having physical diabilities staff are required to use aids and adaptations to asist in Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 14 providing support. People requiring mobility aids have specialist input from the physiotherapy team guiding the staff team in providing the appropriate support. Due to mobility difficulties staff working in the home also provide physiotherapy exercises to some of the people using the service. This is provided with the full guidance from the Physiotherapy team. All people are encouraged to make their own choices such as choosing what clothes they are going to wear. Some prepare their own meals with staff support, as well as purchasing their own personal items such as clothes & personal care items once a week. There is a key working system in place to ensure that people are supported with daily tasks. The home accommodated people from different ethnic backgrounds and staff ensure their cultural needs are met by taking into account their personal needs in terms of body care, food and clothing etc. All people are supported to ensure they see apropriate healthcare professionals depending on their needs i.e. the General Practitioners, Chiropodists, Dentists, and Opticians. One person required input from the leg Ulcer clinic and he is provided apropriate support ensuring his own independence, his input and sense of responsibility is not taken away. All people are supported with medication. The medication is stored in medication cabinet with staff holding the keys at all times. All staff are trained to administer medication. The home keeps a record of all medication received into the care home, administered to the service users and returned to the pharmacist. These were generally well maintained, however staff did not always record allergies of each service user on individual service user’s medication administration sheets. This required improvement. Improvements have been made to the home’s medication systems and the home has stopped re-ordering medication of which they have a good stock. The home has also produced a list of the initials (signatures) of staff who administer medication.

This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 22, 23. People using the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Appropriate complaint systems were in place. People who use the service are protected from abuse and neglect. EVIDENCE: The home had appropriate complaints systems in place. There has been one complaint made to the home, which was being investigated at the time of this inspection. The registered manager stated that the project facilitates a house meeting for all people once a week to take their views of any concerns, wishes or any changes they would like to see. Complaints procedures are explained and given to people at time of move to the project. The complaints procedure is also displayed in the house so people can see the details who they can speak to if they want to make a complaint. The procedure is also backed with pictures to reinforce the text message. The organisation (HILT) also has a service user handbook which ilustrates relevant information both in text & pictorials. All staff are trained regularly around the protection of vulnerable adults. Any issues around protection from abuse, or neglect is taken very seriously and staff are encouraged to report these without hesitation. The home has regular staff meetings, where policies and procedures are dicussed to ensure staff are fully aware of issues. To minimise abuse the home endeavours to use regular Evering Road (41) DS0000010268.V378775.R01.S.doc Version 5.3 Page 16 sessional staff, who are aware of each service user’s assessed care needs. Service users’ finances are monitored/checked on a daily basis during handovers. One service user is supported to manage his finance by a family friend thus the home has no control of his finances. Another person manages his finances independently. One person’s account is managed by the HILT chief executive. Two service user’s finances were managed by Evering Road manager. We checked a random selection of service user’s finances and these were found to be correct.
