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 there is an accurate assessment of their needs that they, or people close to them, have been involved in. This tells the home all about them and the support they need. People who stay at the home only for intermediate care, have a clear assessment that includes a plan on what they hope for and want to achieve when they return home. People can decide whether the care home can meet their support and accommodation needs. This is because they, or people close to them, have been able to visit the home and have got full, clear, accurate and up to date information about the home. 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 them 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. Information is available for prospective residents and their families in the Statement of Purpose and Service Users Guide. People only move into James House once they have had their care needs assessed. Evidence: Prior to people moving into the home people will have their care needs assessed. An assessment form is used for this purpose, and from the assessment the care plan will be developed. The (AQAA) informs us that a visit to the home forms part of the assessment process. At the time of the inspection people living at the home were self funding. As part of the inspection process we looked in detail at the care records of three people who live at the home. We were able to see that care needs had been assessed and that people had been consulted on the level of support they felt they would like.

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’s health, personal and social care needs are met. The home has a plan of care that the person, or someone close to them, has been involved in making. If they take medicine, they manage it themselves if they can. If they cannot manage their medicine, the care home supports them with it, in a safe way. People’s right to privacy is respected and the support they get from staff is given in a way that maintains their dignity. If people are approaching the end of their life, the care home will respect their choices and help them feel comfortable and secure. They, and people close to them, are reassured that their death will be handled with sensitivity, dignity and respect, and take account of their spiritual and cultural wishes. 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 information and records with regard to the support and care people require for daily living is very good. This includes consultation with people who live at the home and relatives. There are procedures and practices in place for the safe storage and administration of medication. The staff team are looking at ways to ensure that end of life care is dealt with according to wishes and all the necessary support is given. Evidence: We looked at the care plans of three people who use the service. A new care plan format has been introduced since the last inspection. The care plan is written in good detail and there is a section where the person using the service is asked to identify areas where help is needed and also areas where independence should be encouraged. On the care plan is also a section for relatives to make comments if they wish. We could see that care plans had been reviewed and dated.

The care plans are presented in a clear manner, care needs and guidelines are stated. The care plan contains information on personal care including continence care, dietary needs, medical and daily heath care needs such as foot care. Financial guidelines and wishes are included. A full range of risk assessments are available as part of the care plan. We saw that these included mobility, going out independently, and self-administration of medication and tissue viability. Care is assessed and identified under a number of headings. Physical and psychological well being, personal care, mobility, nutritional needs and social contacts and activities. We could see a clear record of visits, and appointments with health care professionals. People are registered with a local General Practice and some people receive a service from District Nurses and McMillan Nurses. Risk assessments had been completed for personal safety such as Moving and Handling, and a personal fire evacuation plan had been prepared. Assessments for the purpose of monitoring health were seen, these include mobility,falls, tissue viability,infection control, hydration,and nutrition. We looked at the medication storage area. A monitored dosage system is used for the administration of medication, this is supplied and provided by a local Pharmacy. We also looked at the procedures in place for controlled medication. The storage area for medication and the medication administration record were found to be in order. Staff who administer medication have the training to do so. We were informed by the Registered Manager that she is responsible for auditing the practice of medication administration, and that medication administration records are double checked by senior staff as part of the afternoon/evening shift duty. The Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) informs us that improving end of life care has been identified for further improvement. Some of the staff at James House have already attended End of Life Care training, this training has been provided by a local Hospice. Training for staff who have not yet attended is booked for May 2010. The training focuses on palliative care and support and communication. We were able to see that these arrangements are included in the care plan as preferred priorities of care. This is discussed as part of the care planning process, and wishes are recorded. Sometimes relatives are asked for information. We were informed that sometimes people do not wish to discuss this part of the care plan and that this is Care Homes for Older People Page 12 of 28 Evidence: respected.
