2nd August 2016 - During a routine inspection pdf icon

The inspection visit took place on 02 August 2016 and was unannounced.

Richmond Village Nantwich is part of Richmond Care Villages Holdings Limited. They are registered to provide care and support to 42 people who require help with their daily lives. The home is located on a residential estate in Nantwich and is approximately one mile from the town centre. People who live at the home are accommodated in single rooms, each with ensuite facilities. Staff are on duty 24 hours a day to care for the people who live at the home. At the time of the inspection 40 people lived at the home.

A registered manager was in place. A registered manager is a person who has registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) to manage the service. Like registered providers, they are ‘registered persons’. Registered persons have legal responsibility for meeting the requirements in the Health and Social Care Act 2008 and associated Regulations about how the service is run.

At the last inspection in September 2013 they met all regulations inspected at that time.

We found the registered manager had systems in place to record safeguarding concerns, accidents and incidents and take appropriate action when required. Staff told us and records confirmed safeguarding training had been completed by staff and they understood their responsibilities to report any unsafe care.

Risk assessments had been developed to minimise the potential risk of harm to people who lived at the home whilst receiving care. These had been kept under review and were relevant to the care provided.

We observed medicines were administered to people in a safe and appropriate manner. These were stored in a secure, clean environment. All processes were regularly audited to assess and maintain the safe management of people’s medicines.

We looked at how the service was staffed. We found sufficient staffing levels were in place to provide support people required. We saw the deployment of staff throughout the day was organised.

We found equipment used by staff to support people had been maintained and serviced to ensure they were safe for use.

Care plans were organised and had identified the care and support people required. We found they were informative about care people had received. They had been kept under review and updated when necessary to reflect people’s changing needs.

The management team understood the requirements of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA) and the Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS). This meant they were working within the law to support people who may lack capacity to make their own decisions.

Staff had received training and were knowledgeable about their roles and responsibilities. Staff told us access to training courses and opportunities to develop their skills was good.

We saw regular snacks and drinks were provided between meals to ensure people received adequate nutrition and hydration. We observed the lunch time meal which was well organised. People who required support to eat their meals were supported by staff who were caring and patient. Comments were positive about the quality of food at the home, one included, “Nothing is too much trouble for the kitchen staff they are wonderful and all meals are very good.”

We observed staff treated people with respect, patience and dignity. People we spoke with told us staff were caring and respectful. One person who lived at the home said, “Yes they definitely do respect my privacy and always knock before coming in.”

Staff knew the likes and dislikes of people who lived at the home and delivered care and support in accordance with people’s wishes. During the inspection we observed people were supported to carry out activities which they enjoyed.

Richmond Village had a complaints procedure which was made available to people on their admission to the home. People we spoke with told us they were comfortable with complaining to staff or the management team.
