What did we do for this annual service review? We looked at all the information that we have received, or asked for, since the last key inspection or annual service review. 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 using the service. It also gave us some numerical information about the service. Surveys returned to us by people using the service and from other people with an interest in the service Information we have about how the service has managed any complaints What the service has told us about things that have happened in the service, these are called notifications and are a legal requirement. The previous key inspection and the results of any other visits that we have made to the service in the last 12 months. Relevant information from other organisations. What other people have told us about the service. What has this told us about the service? The service sent us their annual quality assurance assessment AQAA when we asked for it. It was clear and gave us all the information we asked for. We looked at the information in the AQAA and our judgement is that the service is still providing a good service and that they know what further improvements they need to make. The service continues to let us know about things that have happened since our last key inspection no complaint have been received by the CQC since the last inspection with regard to this service. The service works well with us and has shown us that it continues to provide good outcomes for the people who use it . he people who live at the home via surveys told us that they liked living there and are activities for them to take part in. They told that they enjoy the meals and there is always plenty of choice. The surveys returned told us that the people who live at the home have access to medical service when they need it and they thought their health needs were met. They told us that they felt the care needs were being met and that care staff were caring and kind. Annual Service Review Page 4 of 6 The staff told us they were happy working at the home and felt very well supported by the manager. They told us they were well trained and felt capable of caring for the people who live at the home in professional way. They knew the proper procedure to follow if they witness any abuse and indicated that they had received training in this area. 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 do a key inspection by 6th July 2010.
