These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: People are confident that the care home can support them.

This is because they, and people close to them, can visit the home and get full, clear, accurate and up to date information. If they decide to stay in the home they know about their rights and responsibilities because there is an easy to understand contract or statement of terms and conditions between the person and the care home that includes how much they will pay and what the home provides for the money. This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this 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 is providing the necessary information with which to enable prospective service users to make an informed choice about the suitability of the home. There is an appropriate assessment process, with the opportunity for any prospective service user to first visit and stay overnight at the home, before a decision is made. Evidence: The home has a Statement of Purpose and a Service User Guide. These are produced in both written/pictorial and audio formats and include all relevant information. These are being reviewed and updated on an annual basis. The home currently has 4 residents, in their 50s, the most recent of whom was admitted in 2008. The process for admission is that once there is a possible admission, information is gathered about the person, followed by an invite to look around, and overnight stays, then a review meeting is held before a decision is made as to the suitability of the placement. The assessment completed by the home translates into a care plan, and includes all

This is what people staying in this care home experience: Judgement: People using this 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 is providing service users with the support they need with their personal support and health care.

It was, however, found, on the previous inspection, that there had not been any recent refresher training, and that not all staff who had been administering medication had received the necessary training. An assurance was given by the manager that, since the last inspection,, only staff who have received this training are administering medication. An outstanding requirement, for all staff at the home to receive appropriate training, has yet to be fully met. This must be prioritised. Medication storage arrangements were inspected and found to be satisfactory. A requirement, for the medication cabinet to be secured to the wall, has been met. A sample of medication records were inspected and found to be satisfactory.Each person had a photograph on their medication profile and a list of all their allergies. The home has recently suffered a bereavement with the unexpected death of a longstanding resident. This was a difficult period, not least for the residents keyworker who had developed a very close bond with the person concerned. Dealing with this situation was helped by the fact that the Trust had previously developed a policy on ageing and death. This covers all aspects of care that a person who is ageing, ill or dying will need to have considered. It also clearly maps out what to do in each eventuality and how support should be offered to everyone involved including the other residents and staff.
