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? The Commission looked at all the information that we received, or asked for, since the last inspection of the service. This included :-The last inspection report and 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 were also returned to the Commission by five of the people that use the service or their representatives. The Commission also took notice of what the service has told us about things that have happened in the service since its last inspection, these are called notifications and are a legal requirement. What has this told us about the service? We have not received any information about this service that gives cause for concern and would make us think that the current quality rating is not accurate. The quality rating for this service is 2* star. This means the people who use this service experience good quality outcomes. The service sent us their Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) when we asked for it. It was clear and had been thoroughly completed and gave us all the information we asked for. We looked at the information in the AQAA and our judgement is that the home is still providing a good service to the people that it cares for and they continue to identify ways to further improve the quality of care provided at the home. Comments form the returned surveys included nice home, keeps me safe another commented great place to live it is my family. Another person stated that the service provides good food and look after well, nice staff. The only thing that people said could improve at the service was being able to go out on more outings. The AQAA stated that the service has improved the individual care plans for the people that live at the home. they state that these are now person centred and are now very detailed and individual to each service user. This should mean that peoples needs are now met more appropriately and the support that they receive is provided in a way that is acceptable to them and is safe for them. The AQAA also gos on to state that All service users rooms are individually decorated, and service users are encouraged to choose their own colours and designs. All service users have individualized activity plans which are evaluated regularly and improvements made wherever possible. However the AQAA also identified that it could improve the frequency of outside activities to improve the quality of lives for the people that use the service. The service also states that it listens better to what the people that use the service tell them. The service also works well with its health care partners in the community to support Annual Service Review Page 4 of 6 the health and well being of the people that use the service. the environment of the home is suitable to meet the needs of the people that use the service. The AQAA states that the service intends to Improve outdoor facilities, including gardening and a cold frame for service user use. The staff team working at the home appears to be consistent and there is very little change to the staff group. This helps the people that use the service to build confidence in the staff and develop and good working relationships with them. What are we going to do as a result of this annual service review? We are not going to change our inspection plan and will do a key inspection by 24th February 2012 However we can inspect the service at any time if we have concerns about the quality of the service or the safety of the people using the service.
