Care Home: Marion Lauder House

What the care home does well People have thorough assessments of their needs prior to deciding if the home would be the right place for them to live. Each person has a plan of care on admission and this tells staff what they must do to meet each person`s needs. We saw staff treat people with respect and offer reassurance where this was needed. Visitors praised the care provided to the people accommodated. A visiting general practitioner said, `People receive a good level of care and staff cope well with complex behaviours.` The husband of a person accommodated said, `My wife has been here over eighteen months. I am happy with her care.` We saw visitors coming and going throughout the day. One of the visitors told us that he visits every day and is always made welcome by the staff. Staff are to them. provided interests good at supporting people to make decision about things that are important Where people lack the capacity to make important decisions, care records evidence that consideration had been given to taking decisions in their best in line with Mental Capacity Act guidance.Preference is given to engaging people in individual activities due to the nature of the cognitive impairments experienced by the people accommodated. Two activity coordinators are employed for this purpose. The expert observed some activities in progress during our visit. He joined people for their midday meal. He said, `I found the meal nourishing, wholesome and well presented. I observed staff offering assistance with eating to a number of people. The staff were very attentive to their needs.` The home has robust policies and procedures to protect people from harm and to listen and respond to their views and those of their representatives. The environment is regularly maintained and current building work will provide additional internal and external facilities for use by the people living in the home. The expert made the following observations, `People living in the home were clean and well dressed and the laundry service appeared to be managed well with no evidence of regular mix-ups,` The induction and staff development programme had been managed well. Staff had received appropriate training in how to meet the needs of people living with dementia. What has improved since the last inspection? Since our last visit action had been taken to make sure that medication records contained accurate instructions for the safe administration of medicines to people living in the home. What the care home could do better: One of the four care plans we looked at contained a detailed nutrition assessment. This tells staff what to do if a person is at risk of weight loss. We consider this to be good practice and would like to see these assessments in place for everyone living in the home.Care plans could be improved by providing more detail on safe ways of moving and handling for people who have mobility impairments. Further improvements could be made by recording each person`s choices in relation to their religious and cultural needs. Nursing and care staff had been trained in how to recognise abuse and what they must do if abuse is suspected or alleged. We recommend that this training is provided for laundry and domestic staff. The UK Border Agency lays down rules about the type of records that must be kept to provide evidence that staff have the right to work in the UK. The recruitment records for one member of staff did not appear to contain a photocopy of the passport`s front cover. We recommend that advice be taken from the UK Border Agency on this matter. We were concerned that two bedroom doors were propped open with items of furniture during our visit as this potentially places people at risk of smoke inhalation in the event of a fire. We had a further concern that there may be an increased risk of fire due to the current building work on site. The home`s fire risk assessment had not been reviewed to reflect this. We recommend that advice be taken from the local fire officer on these two issues.

The quality rating for this care home is: Our judgement for each outcome: two star good service Choice of home Health and personal care Daily life and social activities Complaints and protection Environment Staffing Management and administration peterchart Poor Adequate Good Excellent How we did our inspection: This was an unannounced inspection, which means that the manager was not told that we were coming to visit. During our visit we looked at some of the homes policies, procedures and records. We looked round the home and had conversations with visitors, staff and managers. We also looked at other information we had received, including events that the home had told us about since our last visit. The manager completed an Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) prior to our visit. This is a self-assessment of how well the home is performing in meeting the National Minimum Standards for Older People. A member of staff also completed and returned a satisfaction survey to us before our visit. We were accompanied on this visit by an an Expert by Experience who is a person Care Homes for Older People Page 6 of 26 that has experience of using care services. The expert helped us to get a picture of what it is like to live in the home, by talking to the people accommodated on the day of our visit. What the care home does well: People have thorough assessments of their needs prior to deciding if the home would be the right place for them to live. Each person has a plan of care on admission and this tells staff what they must do to meet each persons needs. We saw staff treat people with respect and offer reassurance where this was needed.

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. People enquiring about the home can be confident that the method of assessment used, will determine whether the service will be able to meet their needs. Evidence: The manager told us in his self assessment document that people referred to the service are invited to visit and are given written information about the home, the facilities and type of care that is provided. People do not need to make an appointment and the manager is available to answer questions. Each person is assessed in their current living environment before a decision is taken on whether their needs can be met. We looked at the care records belonging to four people living in the home. Care manager assessments of need had been obtained and the homes own assessment documents had been completed. One of the four care records included a nutrition assessment. We consider this to be good practice as it identifies if the individual is at risk of weight loss. Nutrition assessments should be conducted for all people admitted Care Homes for Older People Page 11 of 26 Evidence: to the home. At the time of our visit the home had a waiting list for admissions. The home does not currently offer an intermediate care service. Care Homes for Older People Page 12 of 26 Health and personal care 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. Staff understand the needs of people living in this home and provide the right amount of support to meet those needs in a sensitive and caring way. Evidence: The manager told us in his self-assessment document that each person has a plan of care that records their needs and how these are to be met. We looked at the plans of care for four people living in the home. They had generally been kept up to date with detailed information on what care and support was being provided to meet each persons needs. This included prompt referrals to health professionals where concerns had been identified. We found that the plans of care would benefit from improvements to written guidance on safe moving and handling and guidance on how religious, cultural and ethnic needs would be met. For example, one persons social history described her as a devout Roman Catholic. There was no written information to inform staff if this person would choose not to eat meat on Fridays. One of the moving and handling assessments stated that the person regularly put herself on the floor and we saw this happening during our visit. Two carers were attempting to lift the Care Homes for Older People Page 13 of 26 Evidence: person by linking their arms under hers. The manager intervened to demonstrate the correct procedure. This persons risk assessment should be reviewed and updated to provide clear guidance for staff on the correct procedure to use. The expert found people living in the home to be clean and well dressed. He had conversations with two visitors. One person told him, My wife has been here over eighteen months. I am very happy with her care. I come every day. Some days she doesnt know me. We have been married 52 years. The second visitor told the expert, Observations are not always logged. His fingernails need cutting. We also spoke to a general practitioner that was visiting the home to ask his views on the quality of care provided in the home. He said, People receive a good level of care and staff cope well with complex behaviours. We asked him if staff always followed his directions. He told us that staff sometimes forget to write things down, which can mean that his instructions are not always followed. We also had a conversation with a hairdresser who had been visiting the home regularly for a number of years. He told us that in his opinion people living in the home received good care. He said, Staff have to deal with many challenges, but they always show patience and respect to people living in the home. We observed interactions between staff and people using this service. Staff were observed to constantly interact with people, offering guidance and reassurance where necessary. It was evident that staff had formed good relationships with people living in the home. We looked at the systems in place to administer medication to the four people we were case-tracking. Medication was securely stored and administration records appeared to be accurate and up to date. Care Homes for Older People Page 14 of 26 Daily life and social activities These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: Each person is treated as an individual and the care home is responsive to his or her race, culture, religion, age, disability, gender and sexual orientation. They are part of their local community. The care home supports people to follow personal interests and activities. People are able to keep in touch with family, friends and representatives. They are as independent as they can be, lead their chosen lifestyle and have the opportunity to make the most of their abilities. People have nutritious and attractive meals and snacks, at a time and place to suit them. There are no additional outcomes. 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. Social activities and meals are managed well and provide variety, interest and stimulation for people living in the home. Evidence: The home operated a policy of open visiting and visitors were observed to come and go throughout the day. Routines within the home were flexible and people were encouraged to make choices such as what to eat and when to get up or go to bed. The home employed two activity co-ordinators who were responsible for developing programmes of daily activities that provided interest and stimulation to people living in the home. Training in dementia care was available to these two members of staff to equip them with the knowledge and skills needed for providing meaningful occupation for people living with dementia. Due to the nature of the cognitive impairments experienced by people living in the home, individual activities are preferred. The expert observed some activities, such a doing a jigsaw and drawing in progress during our visit. The expert said, I spent some time in the dining room during lunch and had the same Care Homes for Older People Page 15 of 26 Evidence: meal as people living in the home. I found it nourishing, wholesome and well presented. I observed staff offering assistance with eating to a number of people. The staff were very attentive to their needs. Care Homes for Older People Page 16 of 26 Complaints and protection These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them: If people have concerns with their care, they or people close to them know how to complain. Any concern is looked into and action taken to put things right. The care home safeguards people from abuse and neglect and takes action to follow up any allegations. People’s legal rights are protected, including being able to vote in elections. 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. Complaints are handled well and taken seriously, ensuring that people feel listened to. Good procedures are in place to ensure that people are safeguarded from harm. Evidence: A policy and procedures for responding to complaints was in place and people enquiring about the service had been given written information on this. Of the seven complaints investigated in the previous twelve months, six had been substantiated and action had been taken to make improvements where necessary. The manager told us in the self-assessment document that people had been reluctant to express concerns. He planned to increase publicity in this area to encourage people to see complaints as opportunities to make improvements to the service being provided. Care staff told us that they had received training in safeguarding people from harm and training records confirmed this. We recommend that this training be offered to laundry and domestic staff so that they have the skills and knowledge to recognise and report situations that affect the welfare of people living in the home. A safeguarding referral had been made to the local authority in the previous twelve months, although the allegation had not been substantiated. Care Homes for Older People Page 17 of 26 Environment 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 stay in a safe and well-maintained home that is homely, clean, pleasant and hygienic. People stay in a home that has enough space and facilities for them to lead the life they choose and to meet their needs. The home makes sure they have the right specialist equipment that encourages and promotes their independence. Their room feels like their own, it is comfortable and they feel safe when they use it. 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. People living in the home are provided with safe, clean and comfortable surroundings. Evidence: We walked round the home and found all areas to be clean. We detected an unpleasant odour in the entrance hall and lounge. After investigating this the manager explained that the odour had been caused by soiled laundry being left in a sluice room. He said that staff had been reminded that soiled laundry must be dealt with in a timely manner. People living in the home had access to a secure garden area, where they could walk safely when the weather permitted. At the time of our visit an extension was being built. The manager told us that this would increase the number of bedrooms, communal space and provide a choice of outdoor courtyard facilities. The expert said, People living in the home were clean and well dressed and the laundry service appeared to be managed well, with no evidence of regular mix ups. The self-assessment document told us that there was an action plan to deliver best practice in prevention and control of infection. Two staff confirmed that they had received training in this and new staff did this training as part of their induction. Care Homes for Older People Page 18 of 26 Care Homes for Older People Page 19 of 26 Staffing 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 have safe and appropriate support as there are enough competent staff on duty at all times. They have confidence in the staff at the home because checks have been done to make sure that they are suitable to care for them. Their needs are met and they are cared for by staff who get the relevant training and support from their managers. There are no additional outcomes. 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 procedures for the recruitment of staff need to be more robust to ensure that suitable staff are employed to safeguard the welfare of people living in the home. Evidence: At the time of our visit sufficient staff were on duty to meet the assessed needs of people living in the home. Rosters provided evidence that this number of staff were being consistently deployed. The home employs a training manager to coordinate staff development and training. Records provided evidence of induction programmes for new staff, National Vocational Qualifications for care staff and relevant in-house and external courses to ensure that the staff team had the skills and knowledge to meet the assessed needs of people accommodated in the home. The expert talked to several staff during our visit. He found staff to be happy and genuinely concerned regarding the welfare of people accommodated in the home. We looked at the personnel file for a newly recruited member of staff. The required pre-recruitment checks had been undertaken prior to her appointment. We noted that the only photocopy taken from this persons passport was the personal details page. Legislation enforced by the UK Border Agency requires that employers also retain Care Homes for Older People Page 20 of 26 Evidence: photocopies of the front covers of passports in addition to other information, such as passport control stamps. We recommend that the manager takes advice from the UK Border Agency, via the Business Link, to establish that the correct copy documents are being held for people employed to work in the home. Care Homes for Older People Page 21 of 26 Management and administration 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 have confidence in the care home because it is led and managed appropriately. People control their own money and choose how they spend it. If they or someone close to them cannot manage their money, it is managed by the care home in their best interests. The environment is safe for people and staff because appropriate health and safety practices are carried out. People get the right support from the care home because the manager runs it appropriately with an open approach that makes them feel valued and respected. The people staying at the home are safeguarded because it follows clear financial and accounting procedures, keeps records appropriately and ensures their staff understand the way things should be done. They get the right care because the staff are supervised and supported by their managers. 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 being run in the best interests of the people accommodated. Evidence: We talked to members of staff and management during our visit and found that they cared about the wellbeing of the people they supported. The expert said, My general observation of Marion Lauder House is a well run home with a dedicated group of staff doing a difficult job. A system was in place to check that standards were being maintained. This was done by asking the views of people using the service and their representatives. Regular checks had been done to ensure that records, money managed on behalf of people and maintenance of the home were kept up to date. We looked at some of the health and safety records. Apart from the fire risk assessment the records were accurate and up to date. The fire risk assessment had Care Homes for Older People Page 22 of 26 Evidence: last been reviewed in October 2007. Since that time major building work to erect an extension to the home had started. This potentially increases the fire risk and should be assessed. Furthermore, we found two bedroom doors propped open with items of furniture. This posed a risk of smoke inhalation to people living and working in the home in the event of a fire. We recommend that advice be taken from the local fire officer on fire prevention in relation to these two issues. Care Homes for Older People Page 23 of 26 Are there any outstanding requirements from the last inspection? Yes £ No R Outstanding statutory requirements These are requirements that were set at the previous inspection, but have still not been met.

Individual risk assessments should contain detailed information to guide staff in safe techniques for undertaking moving and handling tasks. More detail should be recorded in care plans about the choices people make in relation to their religious and cultural needs. Laundry and domestic staff should receive training in understanding what constitutes abuse and what they must do to safeguard people living in the home from harm. Passports should be photocopied accurately to comply with immigration legislation. Taking this action will safeguard the welfare of people living in the home. Advice should be taken from the local fire officer on fire prevention and risk assessment to ensure that the welfare of people living and working in the home is protected. 2 7 3 7 4 18 5 29 6 38 Care Homes for Older People Page 25 of 26 Helpline: Telephone: 0845 015 0120 or 0191 233 3323 Textphone: 0845 015 2255 or 0191 233 3588 Email: enquiries@csci.gsi.gov.uk Web: www.csci.org.uk We want people to be able to access this information.
