This is an overview of what the inspector found during the inspection. This unannounced inspection took place on 18th March between 9:30am and 3:55pm. This time was divided between the sister home mentioned above, as the management systems are very similar, and are owned and run by the same provider. There were 7 residents in the home and no vacancies. We spoke with 2 residents, the registered manager, deputy manager, and the care manager. We toured the building and looked at all communal areas. One resident showed us her bedroom. The inspection process also consisted of information collected before and during the visit to the home, and feedback from two residents’ relatives and two local care Managers after the site visit finished. We also saw and assessed other information such as general assessments, risk assessments and care plans, medication records, the duty rota and staff recruitment and training records. We used the AQAA for information – this is the Annual Quality Assurance Assessment, and is a legal document that the home need to complete each year. This was provided when we asked for it, and was completed to a good standard. There were no outstanding requirements from the previous inspection and one requirement was made following this inspection. The quality rating for this service is 2 star. This means the people who use this service experience good quality outcomes. What the service does well: The home prepares care plans, which assists staff in monitoring resident’s healthcare needs and providing consistent and appropriate care. Staff are trained and well supported. The home provides a comfortable, homely, clean environment.

The home is still working on the pictorial format which was discussed at the previous inspection. No new residents have been admitted since the last inspection and most of the residents have lived in the home for many years. However, the records indicate that there would be an appropriate referrals procedure and that an assessment would be carried out prior to admission.

The files include residents’ personal profiles, mobility, dietary and other assessments and the resident’s likes and dislikes. There are also some guidelines on how the home will assist residents in achieving their short and longer term goals. Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 11 Residents have key workers who monitor their individual needs and activities. The records showed that the care plans are updated following the reviews or as and when their care needs change. The care manager, who is responsible to the registered manager, referred to preparing person centred care plans where the residents have been encouraged to participate as much as possible. Risk assessments are in place and the AQAA has told us that staff support residents to review these each month. There is no standard format for risk assessment, as the home aims to develop each one with a person centred approach in a way that is right for the individual. Staff confirmed that issues relating to confidentiality are addressed during the induction period. All records are stored in a lockable office and there was no public display of confidential or personal information. Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 12 Lifestyle

Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 13 room of the older people’s home for use by residents of both homes. Residents also enjoy going shopping or out to pubs. One resident who prefers not to go out spends much of his time in the next-door home for older people. One resident’s relative said that the home has been able to make allowances for that resident as his or her needs have changed. There is evidence in the residents’ daily records to show that families, and other visitors are encouraged and welcomed. Two of the residents’ relatives were full of praise. They said the staff are helpful and easy to talk to, and that they always make time for them when they visit. Residents have individual bank accounts which are regularly audited, with appropriate receipts and records kept. Staff signatures are required for monies taken out when residents spend money on social activities such as going to the pub. Residents are part of the local community. They are encouraged to shop and bank locally and use public transport.

The staff said that there are no residents at present with different ethnic or cultural needs, as the current residents tend to come from the local communities. Residents are supported in attending any church services of their choice. The home has a policy in place regarding personal relationships and the deputy manager said that residents would be supported with this or with any other personal needs. Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 14 Personal and Healthcare Support

Service users retain, administer and control their own medication where appropriate, and are protected by the home’s policies and procedures for dealing with medicines.

Two professional from the local care management team said that there are no concerns or issues with the home and that the home keeps them informed of any particular needs or developments. The home has sound medication procedures. Staff confirmed that only when trained may they administer medication. They said that all staff are required to read the procedures stored in the medication file. Residents have direct support from staff for medication storage. Staff administer this from a central cupboard. There are no assessments in place to see if residents, with support, could take a bigger role in this process. The medication records are clear and current and there is a system for the receipt and disposal of medication. However the medication is stored in a communal area in a cupboard that is not purpose built and does not have a lock built into it. The manager said that this will be reviewed. Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 16 Concerns, Complaints and Protection
The intended outcomes for Standards 22 – 23 are: 22. 23. Service users feel their views are listened to and acted on. Service users are protected from abuse, neglect and self-harm.

Staff said that they have attended training sessions on how to intervene appropriately in difficult situations. The home has sound recruitment procedures in place and staff said that they had not been able to start work until CRB, POVA, references and other checks had been completed.

The intended outcomes for Standards 24 – 30 are: 24. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. Service users live in a homely, comfortable and safe environment. Service users’ bedrooms suit their needs and lifestyles. Service users’ bedrooms promote their independence. Service users’ toilets and bathrooms provide sufficient privacy and meet their individual needs. Shared spaces complement and supplement service users’ individual rooms. Service users have the specialist equipment they require to maximise their independence. The home is clean and hygienic. The Commission considers Standards 24, and 30 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 24, 25, & 30 People who use the service experience adequate outcomes in this area. Residents live in a clean, comfortable environment but there is still a need to improve furnishing and decoration and to ensure that there are no safety issues. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: We were shown around the premises by the Deputy Manager and were also shown some of the individual rooms by residents. The home is run separately and independently from the adjacent home belonging to Z&M Care, which are physically linked. Shared facilities are limited to the fire routes and systems. The building is on three levels. All residents are in single room accommodation, and rooms are fitted with alarm call buttons. All bedrooms and living areas are furnished and decorated to a reasonable standard, and contained the type of furniture and equipment necessary to
Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 18 provide a homely environment. Beds and bedding are of a reasonable standard. The resident’s rooms are personalised with their own pictures, ornaments and equipment. Although some new carpets and furnishings have been provided recently, there are areas of carpet on the second floor which require cleaning or replacement. There is an on-going programme for re-decoration and refurbishment. The manager has made clear in the AQAA that these matters are planned for and will be improved on a rolling basis. Some of the bedroom doors have a lock that is of a type not recommended as it has a “snib” button. This can act as a ‘dead-lock’ which staff would not be able to over-ride in the event of an emergency. The manager said that this would be attended to very quickly. All of the radiators have been fitted with protective covers and windows are fitted with restrictors. There is one window without a restrictor and the deputy manager said that this would be attended to immediately. All areas were seen to be clean and hygienic. However, the shower cubicle in the first floor bathroom is heavily marked and worn and requires attention. At the time of the inspection there were some cleaning materials, including bleach, which were stored in an unlocked cupboard underneath the kitchen sink. This should be locked away to protect residents who may need additional support when using these products. There is a small but well-maintained garden and patio which is used by the residents. Staff said that residents do use the garden sometimes. Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 19 Staffing
The intended outcomes for Standards 31 – 36 are: 31. 32. 33. 34. 35. 36. Service users benefit from clarity of staff roles and responsibilities. Service users are supported by competent and qualified staff. Service users are supported by an effective staff team. Service users are supported and protected by the home’s recruitment policy and practices. Service users’ individual and joint needs are met by appropriately trained staff. Service users benefit from well supported and supervised staff. The Commission considers Standards 32, 34 and 35 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 32, 34 & 35 People who use the service experience good outcomes in this area. Staffing numbers are adequate to meet the daily needs of the residents. Residents are protected and supported by the home’s recruitment and induction training procedures. Residents benefit from a well trained and supported staff team. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: At the time of the inspection there were two staff on duty. There were also the registered manager, deputy manager, cook, two domestic assistants and a maintenance person in the adjoining home for older people. This staffing level appears adequate to meet the current number of residents’ needs (i.e. 7 residents) in terms of their daily care and the home’s domestic needs. We looked at four staff files. They all contained evidence of work references, Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and other checks, such as Protection of
Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 20 Vulnerable Adults register (POVA). Whilst there is a turnover of staff, there is a core group of staff who have worked in the home for some while. Two recently employed members of staff confirmed that staff must complete application forms, and that they cannot start work until the home has obtained references, CRB and POVA checks, and evidence of their identity. The home also verifies the working permits of staff recruited from overseas. Staff confirmed that there is induction training and regular formal or informal supervision. The AQAA confirmed that there is a proactive approach to safeguarding people through solid, consistent recruitment processes. The care manager, who manages the day-to-day running of this side of the home, said that all of the staff have either achieved or are undertaking their NVQ’s – a nationally recognised care qualification. The care manager has completed NVQ training to Level 4 and has commenced the Registered Managers Award (RMA). The training programme since the last inspection has included dementia awareness, health and safety, safeguarding adults and infection control. Although there is a resident in the home with diabetes there has not been any formal training provided in diabetes awareness. This could put the person at risk if staff needed to support her or him in an emergency situation. . Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 21 Conduct and Management of the Home
The intended outcomes for Standards 37 – 43 are: 37. 38. 39. 40. 41. 42. 43. Service users benefit from a well run home. Service users benefit from the ethos, leadership and management approach of the home. Service users are confident their views underpin all self-monitoring, review and development by the home. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s policies and procedures. Service users’ rights and best interests are safeguarded by the home’s record keeping policies and procedures. The health, safety and welfare of service users are promoted and protected. Service users benefit from competent and accountable management of the service. The Commission considers Standards 37, 39, and 42 the key standards to be inspected. JUDGEMENT – we looked at outcomes for the following standard(s): 37, 39 & 42 People who use the service experience good outcomes in this area. The current management arrangements ensure that the home is being run in a way which benefits residents and staff. The record keeping, and health and safety systems are sufficient to safeguard residents’ welfare, rights and best interests. This judgement has been made using available evidence including a visit to this service. EVIDENCE: The registered manager, although already professionally qualified, has also completed her Registered Manager’s Award. The deputy manager has completed NVQ level 3, and is working towards level 4. The care manager has Z & M Care DS0000014112.V359553.R01.S.doc Version 5.2 Page 22 completed NVQ training to Level 4 and has commenced the Registered Managers Award (RMA). The management of the home and completion of records are generally of a good standard. One member of staff said that morale in the home is good and that the owner/manager and deputy manager are supportive. Quality assurance is carried out through regularly reviewing policies and procedures, and through obtaining feedback from quality assurance surveys. Staff said that residents’ views and feelings are regularly questioned and monitored, either through talking to them, observing them to see whether or not they appear happy. The manager said that any feedback from residents and/or their families or advocates is acted upon. One Care Manager, who has reviewed clients in the home also confirmed this. The layout of the home is such that residents must access the dining room by walking through the kitchen, but there did not appear to be a risk assessment specifically for this. There were no obvious safety hazards around the home, and there was evidence to show that health and safety issues are taken seriously e.g. staff showed an awareness of infection control procedures, and fire safety procedures. Accident records are collected and risk assessments for residents and the environment have been carried out. The home employs a part time maintenance man. The deputy manager has responsibility for routine testing of equipment and ensures that regular weekly tests are carried out and recorded. Staff have had fire safety training and there are regular fire drills. There are current certificates to show that regular checks e.g. gas and electricity, are carried out.
