This was a routine unannounced inspection, which included a visit to Glendale on the 12th September 2008. One inspector undertook the site visit, and all of the key national minimum standards were addressed. Opportunity was taken to speak with residents, relatives, staff, and the registered Manager. The Manager completed and returned the Annual Quality Assurance Assessment to the Commission, which is a self-assessment of how the service is doing. Information from the document has been included in the report. As part of the inspection 7 staff surveys, and 9 residents/relatives surveys were returned. The comments made have been useful, and have helped in understanding what it is like to live at Glendale. Records and documents were looked at in detail, including a sample of care plans, Two staff files and supervision records, the staff rota, complaints, medication and accident records. What the service does well: Glendale is a small, clean, comfortable and homely place to live, with a Manager and staff team who make every effort to provide a service that is individualised. Routines in the home are flexible and varied according to individual needs and wishes i.e. there are no restrictions on when residents get up, or go to bed etc. New admissions to the home are only made following a thorough assessment of the person’s needs.

What they could do better: Storage space within the home is poor and must be reviewed, particularly the bathroom area which could become a safety hazard. The home continues to have a shortfall in the number of N.V.Q qualified staff. This relates to a number of older staff declining to undertake the training. Two further staff members have now completed the NVQ 2 in care, and another staff member is starting N.V.Q 3. The manager will continue to actively recruit qualified carers, and seek further funding for staff that are inexperienced, and would benefit from such training. .

EVIDENCE: At the time of the inspection the home was comfortable, and staff had worked hard to make the home cosy, and domestic in style. The general cleanliness of the home was maintained to a high standard. The manager stated in the AQAA “We ensure that the home is maintained to a good standard. Decorating and refurbishing as appropriate. We replace items as required. We do our utmost to ensure there are no unpleasant odours by cleaning spillages immediately. Laundering soiled clothing and bedding immediately and using appropriate air freshening products. Glendale Residential Home DS0000067783.V371338.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 17 We employ a housekeeper six days a week to maintain our high standards.” Residents are accommodated in 14 single rooms and there is one room available as a double if required. All of the décor was fresh and clean and of a good standard. Bedrooms were personalised by residents with photographs, pictures and ornaments. However there is an obvious shortage of storage space that should be addressed, and one bathroom looked cluttered with incontinence pads and similar items.

Glendale Residential Home DS0000067783.V371338.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 Staffing The intended outcomes for Standards 27 – 30 are: 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users’ needs are met by the numbers and skill mix of staff. Service users are in safe hands at all times. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Staff are trained and competent to do their jobs. The Commission consider all the above are key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 27, 28, 29,and 30 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. Staffing levels by day and night are sufficient to meet resident’s needs. Staff have appropriate skills, knowledge and experience to identify and respond to individual needs in a consistent way. EVIDENCE: A range of different staff work at Glendale, some of which have been in post for many years. All the members of the care staff spoken with during the inspection were enthusiastic about their work in the home, and one said, “that there is an open and happy atmosphere here”. Rotas examined on the day of the inspection showed that there was sufficient staff on duty during the day and night to meet the needs of people living at the home. If further residents were admitted i.e. further people with dementia who require greater care, or the home increases it numbers, then the manager gave assurance that staffing numbers would be reviewed. The manager advised that no agency staff were used; shifts were covered by the staff in post. Several Staff spoken to say they had been in post for a considerable period of time, and that this made a difference to the quality of care that they were able to provide to residents. Glendale Residential Home DS0000067783.V371338.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 This was also re stated in three surveys. One person said “The staff have a nice repore with residents, there a nice atmosphere, sitting and talking with residents”. Another person said “They know the residents well, and have an interest in each individual.” The home continues to have a shortfall in the number of N.V.Q qualified staff. The manager has encouraged staff to undertake NVQ training, but a number of older staff have declined to complete the training. The Manager stated that she prioritised training updates for these staff and that they were “a valuable part of the team”. Two further staff members have now completed the NVQ 2 in care, and another staff member is starting N.V.Q 3. The manager will continue to actively recruit qualified carers, and seek further funding for staff that are inexperienced, and would benefit from such training. Two staff files were looked as part of the inspection. All staff files identified the training staff had undertaken. The home’s mandatory training i.e. first aid, manual handling, safeguarding and medication administration, had been completed by staff. Staff felt that they had good access to relevant training opportunities, and new staff undergo a thorough induction programme adapted from the Skills for Care booklet (12 weeks and beyond). Part of this familiarises staff with the policies, procedures and routines of the home. The records of all of new staff currently in post were inspected and found to hold all of the required checks and information i.e. criminal record disclosure and references. Glendale Residential Home DS0000067783.V371338.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Management and Administration The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 38 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. 37. 38. Service users live in a home which is run and managed by a person who is fit to be in charge, of good character and able to discharge his or her responsibilities fully.

Service users are safeguarded by the accounting and financial procedures of the home. Service users’ financial interests are safeguarded. Staff are appropriately supervised. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping, policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users and staff are promoted and protected. The Commission considers Standards 31, 33, 35 and 38 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 31, 33, 35, 36 and 38 Quality in this outcome area is good. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The manager is experienced in the care of the elderly and has completed the Registered Managers Award. The Manager said that she regularly updates her practice by attending training; and then provides training to the staff team. The manager has attended training on The Mental Capacity Act, and is ensuring staff understand what this means when caring for residents in the future. She has a strong commitment to raise and sustain standards, and residents’ personal wellbeing and safety is promoted through staff training, comprehensive policies, procedures, and regular health and safety checks. Glendale Residential Home DS0000067783.V371338.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 A random sample of health and safety documents were examined and these were up to date. The home had a completed fire risk assessment, which had been regularly updated, and there was evidence of fire drills and fire alarm tests. However as stated earlier in the report the storage space within the home must be reviewed, particularly the bathroom area which could become a safety hazard. Feedback from residents and staff about the registered manager was positive with comments received about her being approachable, supportive and always on hand for advice. The Manager stated that both herself and the assistant manager work as part of the care team providing guidance and direction to staff when necessary, to ensure that residents receive consistent, quality care.
