What the care home does well Staff encourage people to be independent and to make their own decisions. This enables people to have control over their lives. Staff are respectful to people and sensitive in meeting their needs. This helps in making sure people receive care in the way they prefer. The way in which information is gathered and kept about people means staff can provide support in a way that people need and prefer. It also means staff have in depth knowledge and understanding about each individual person and so encourage them to develop skills and experiences safely. Comments received from one person living at the home were positive. They made comments such as, "Supervise well in helping me when I needed. Helping us to get out more". What has improved since the last inspection? The home has been re-decorated throughout making it more pleasant for people who live at 21 Hillbank View. The home has improved the way they support people in accessing more activities of their choice. Additional staff have been employed. This gives people living at the home the flexibility and support to access and participate in activities of their choice. The manager now holds the (NVQ) National Vocational Qualification Level 4 Registered Manager Award in Care. This makes sure that staff have the right skills to do the job they are employed to do. What the care home could do better: There was nothing identified at this inspection that the home needed to improve upon, however the organisation has made improvements since the last inspection and is always is keen to sustain improvement in looking towards improving the services they own.Hill Bank View (21)DS0000007845.V377159.R01.S.docVersion 5.2 Key inspection report CARE HOME ADULTS 18-65 Hill Bank View (21) 21 Hill Bank View Bogs Lane Harrogate North Yorkshire HG1 4DR Lead Inspector Irene Ward Key Unannounced Inspection 20th August 2009 09:00 Hill Bank View (21) DS0000007845.V377159.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 1 This report is a review of the quality of outcomes that people experience in this care home.

The quality rating for this service is 2 star good. This means that people who use the service experience good quality outcomes. The Care Quality Commission inspects homes at a frequency determined by how the service has been risk assessed. The inspection process has now become a cycle of activity rather than a series of one-off events. Information is gathered from a variety of sources, one being a site visit. More information about the inspection process can be found on our website www.cqc.org.uk This is what we used to write this report: · We looked at information we have received about the respite centre since it was registered. · We asked for information to be sent to us before the inspection, this is called an annual quality assessment questionnaire (AQAA). · We sent surveys to people who receive a service and to staff who work at the home. · One inspector visited the home unannounced. This visit lasted over four hours and included talking to senior staff on duty about their work and the training they have completed, and checking some of the records, policies and procedures the home has to keep. · We looked at all three peoples care records to check that a plan had been formulated which helped staff provide support to people according to their needs and wishes. · We focused on the key standards and what the outcomes are for people who use the service. We have reviewed our practice when making requirements, to improve national consistency. Some requirements from previous inspection reports may have been deleted or carried forward into this report as recommendations but only when it is considered that people who use services are not being put at significant risk of harm. In future, if a requirement is repeated, it is likely that enforcement action will be taken. The site visit took place on the 20th August 2009. Senior staff were able to assist throughout the visit and available for feedback at the end of the inspection process.
