What the care home does well People can take as long as they need to decide if they want to live in the house. People are asked about what they need. And a lot of information is collected before people move in to make sure their needs can be met. The home supports people to have interesting lives and people living at the home are being introduced to new activities and experiences to help them lead more fulfilled lives. People living at the home are supported to learn or renew self help skills to help them become more independent in aspects of every day living. The house is clean and comfortable and well maintained. Staff help people keep in touch with their families. What the care home could do better: No requirements or recommendations were made as a result of this inspection. Random inspection report

Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 2 of 7 Brief description of the care home detached and stands in its own grounds in what could be described as being in the centre of Hetton le Hole. It is only a short walk to the local shops. The busy shopping parade at Hetton, which has a range of facilities, including a swimming baths, is within easy reach. The building has 2 storeys and has bedrooms on both the ground and first floor. Its design and layout ensures that it blends in with the neighbouring houses and there are no features that would indicate that it provides a residential service. The adjacent house is also owned by the same company and offers a similar service. The house, like the adjacent, has its own entrance, separate staff team and registered manager and is run independently. There is a large enclosed rear garden and patio area and parking which is shared between the 2 homes. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 3 of 7 What we found:
An unannounced visit to the home took place on 19th April at 11:15am. At the time of the visit people from the home were next door in the house run by the same Organization ,taking part in some activities in the house as it was too cold to garden. The manager showed me around the building as people were busy.Conversation with staff and observation showed people living at the home are encouraged to be involved in making decisions e.g about what to eat, where to go out. I was shown the very large garden and discussion took place about the plans of the Organization to build a further house in the grounds for people who may be referred to the Organization.
