What did we do for this annual service review? We looked at all the information that we had received, or asked for, since the last key inspection. This included 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 who use the service. What the service has told us about things that have happened in the service, these are called notifications and the home is legally required to tell us about significant things that happen within the service that affect people who use it. What has this told us about the service? The last key inspection of the service took place on the 31/01/2009. As a result of that inspection a judgement was made that this was a good service. Feedback from people who use the service was positive, and there was evidence that people who used the service were supported according to their abilities and preferences to live valued and fulfilling lives. Since the previous inspection, the Care Quality Commission has not received any complaints about the service, nor has it been made aware of any allegations of abuse. At the last inspection it was found that the home had appropriate procedures in place to deal with complaints and adult protection matters. The home completed and returned its AQAA within the specified timescales. This indicates that the home continues to provide a good standard of care. The AQAA also demonstrated the homes commitment to equality and diversity issues and that the home is service user focused. We did not receive any completed feedback surveys from people who use the service. 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 carry out a key standards inspection by the 31/03/2011. However, we can inspect the service at any time if we have concerns about the quality of the service or the safety of people using the service. Annual Service Review Page 4 of 5 Reader Information
