This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. The quality rating for this service is 3. This means the people who use this service experience excellent quality outcomes.
This report is the first inspection report since Inspirit Care Limited was registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) in November 2008. This report is based on information gathered by the CQC during the unannounced visit on the 11 and 21 May 2009 and supporting information received in Annual Quality Assurance Assessment (AQAA) submitted by the manager prior to this visit. 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. This visit was unannounced, which means that the manager and staff were not told that we would be visiting. The visit took place on Monday 11 May 2009. This report is an overview of what the inspector found during the visit. References to we or us in this report represent the CQC. Staff and some people living at the home were sent comments cards so that we could get their views on how the home is run. We received four completed comment cards from staff and six comment cards from those sent to people living at the home. Some of the comments are included in the body of the report. As part of the visit we spent time examining relevant documents and files. We also spent time talking with several people living at the home, some members of staff and a visitor to the home. We also walked round the home and looked at the communal areas and some bedrooms. Feedback was given to the manager during the course of the visit. What the service does well: The home is a well maintained, purpose built care setting with spacious communal and private areas. There are safe, enclosed well maintained garden and patios areas for people to use. Everybody spoken to and information received in the completed comment cards indicated that the home was always clean and fresh.

The intended outcomes for Standards 1 – 6 are: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Prospective service users have the information they need to make an informed choice about where to live. Each service user has a written contract/ statement of terms and conditions with the home. No service user moves into the home without having had his/her needs assessed and been assured that these will be met. Service users and their representatives know that the home they enter will meet their needs. Prospective service users and their relatives and friends have an opportunity to visit and assess the quality, facilities and suitability of the home. Service users assessed and referred solely for intermediate care are helped to maximise their independence and return home. The Commission considers Standards 3 and 6 the key standards to be inspected. This is what people staying in this care home experience: JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 3&6 People using the service experience good quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service. Peoples needs are assessed before admission to ensure their care needs can be met. EVIDENCE: Admissions to the three residential units are only made after a pre admission assessment of the persons needs has been undertaken, to ensure that those needs can be met by. In addition to the homes own assessment they also receive information from the care managers assessment of the placing authority. Evidence was seen of these assessments on the three care files looked at during this visit. Pemberton Fold DS0000072949.V375012.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 However it was noted that the homes own pre assessment document did not include an assessment of people’s specific religious or cultural needs. To ensure that all peoples assessed needs can be met it is recommended that the pre admission assessment is reviewed and updated to include as assessment of any specific religious or cultural needs. The Dementia Care unit is an assessment and respite care unit so the home’s own pre admission assessment is not always undertaken prior to the person’s admission. However she confirmed that admissions are planned as referrals are made through Social Services and they always get the care managers assessment and further information from the person’s family or from the ward if they are in hospital. People who are thinking about moving into the home and or their relatives are encouraged to visit, have a look round, meet staff and other people living at the home. Information received in the completed comment cards confirmed that they had received enough information before making a decision to move in. The Statement of Purpose is available in the main reception for people to look at. The manager confirmed that the marketing department was currently updating the Service User Guide to include the details of the newly registered provider. The Service User Guide is available in each bedroom Pemberton Fold does not provide an intermediate care service.

Service users’ health care needs are fully met. Service users, where appropriate, are responsible for their own medication, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines. Service users feel they are treated with respect and their right to privacy is upheld. Service users are assured that at the time of their death, staff will treat them and their family with care, sensitivity and respect.

Pemberton Fold
DS0000072949.V375012.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 One of the support plans looked at was for a person on Dementia care assessment unit. This evidenced that the care required by that person is assessed and reviewed on a regular basis. Approximately three or four weeks after admission there is a multi disciplinary team meeting that families are invited to, to review the assessed care needs of the individual. The support plans contained details of peoples personal choices, preferences and care needs. There was documented evidence that the individual support plans had been reviewed regularly, which ensures that people’s needs are being appropriately met. There was no formal assessment for oral hygiene needs. To ensure that peoples needs are appropriately met it is recommended that an oral assessment is undertaken on admission and then incorporated into the support plan. Risk assessments relating to nutrition, falls and risk of pressure sores were completed where appropriate to ensure that all assessed needs are being met. The returned comment cards indicated that people receive the care and support needed. One comment received was that the care was ‘very good and I am pleased with the way staff treat me’. All six comment cards indicated that staff listen and act on what you say Procedures relating to safe storage, administration and recording of medication were assessed and found to be in order. A visual check of the blister packs and a random count of boxed medication was found to be correct. Recording of doses administered were accurate and the correct coding had been used. To ensure the safe administration of medication staff who are responsible for administering medication had received appropriate training. Staff, people living at the home and relatives spoken to confirmed that people are treated with respect and dignity.
