Annual Service Review Page 3 of 6 Service update since the last key inspection or annual service review:
What did we do for this annual service review? We looked at all the information that we have received, or asked for, since the last key inspection or annual service review. This included: The annual quality assurance assessment (AQAA) that was sent to us by the service. The AQAA is a self-assessment that focuses on how well outcomes are being met for people using the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. Surveys returned to us by people using the service and from other people with an interest in the service. Information we have about how the service has managed any complaints. What the service has told us about things that have happened in the service, these are called notifications and are a legal requirement. The previous key inspection and the results of any other visits that we have made to the service in the last 12 months. Relevant information from other organisations. What other people have told us about the service. What has this told us about the service? The home sent us their annual quality assurance assessment (AQAA) when we asked for it. It contained clear, relevant information supported by a range of evidence. The AQAA told us where they had made changes as a result of listening to people in the home, such as organising a Christmas shopping trip and decorating bedrooms according to individual tastes. The data section was fully completed. We looked at the information in the AQAA and our judgment is that the home is still providing a good service and that they know what further improvements they need to make. We received surveys from the 3 people who live in the home, all completed with help from staff at the home. People told us they could always decide what they wanted to do each day. They said the staff always treated them well. They all said they knew how to make a complaint and who to talk to if they were not happy. They said This home makes me happy I like everything as it is My home is comfortable, its nice to come home when Ive been out. All the staff are lovely. We received 4 surveys from staff in the home. They all said they had up to date information about the needs of the people in the home, and all said they had training to help them to meet those needs. They all said they had regular support from their manager. They said there were usually enough staff to meet the needs of the people in the home. They told us The home runs like clockwork! With a great home manager and staff All staff are good as a team. The home continues to let us know about things that have happened since our last key inspection and they have shown that they have managed issues well. They work well with us and have shown us that their service continues to provide good outcomes for the people who use it.
