Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 2 of 7 Brief description of the care home The home has changed owners in that as of 18th May 2006, the service has been acquired by a large private organisation under the provider name of CARETECH Community Services Limited. The home is located in Ilford approximately half of a mile away from the Ilford Town Centre. It is situated on a good bus route and service users have easy access to a full range of local facilities, which they are encouraged to use. The service was opened in January 2004 and is a large detached house that is set in its own grounds. All bedrooms are single and contain en-suite facilities. The building is an amalgamation of two houses and there are plans to have an A and B unit. There are bedrooms on both the ground and upper floors and access is via stairs on either side of the building. There are extensive grounds to the rear of the building that allow service users the opportunity to pursue external activities. There are staff on hand night and day to provide care and support to the service users. A statement of purpose is made available to all service users in the home and is kept in the main Office. Given the level of disabilities service users are likely to have, this document is also made available to relatives and stakeholders. A service user guide is also given to each service user upon admission to the home. Fees for the services provided range from #1300 to #2,500 per week. Service users pay additional for Toiletries-#20-#50 per month; Hairdressing-#10-#15 per session; Chiropody-#15; with Transport, Activities and Membership services-all variably priced. Service users also have to bear the costs of their holidays. Care Homes for Adults (18-65 years) Page 3 of 7 What we found:
On the day of the site visit the home was unoccupied and not in operation. as the registered persons had notified in 2008. The service therefore remains dormant. There is no evidence that the external environment had been maintained as the front drive was growing weeds in a number of areas. A light was left on in the corridor towards the entrance of the building and the small foyer area was littered with flyers.
