About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 23 December 2023. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Aegis Care Solutions at Trees Residential Care Home is a residential care home providing accommodation for up to 22 people who required personal care and support. At the time of our inspection there were 19 people using the service.
What inspectors found
The building was clean and tidy and regular maintenance checks were carried out. There were enough suitably trained staff to support people. Staff were recruited safely and we made a recommendation for the provider to review its systems and processes for renewing DBS checks for staff. The provider reflected on this recommendation and made immediate changes to its systems and processes for renewing DBS checks. People told us they felt safe and staff were kind and caring.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
People's medication was administered safely but some PRN (as and when medication) protocols were not in place. The registered manager took immediate action to include checks and reviews of PRN protocols as part of their 'resident of the day' review process.
A 'resident of the day' approach was used to review care plans and risk assessments. Moving and handling risks were detailed but detail describing the correct orientation of a sling was missing. This was brought to the attention of the registered manager who took action to address this during the inspection.
People were supporting people to eat and drink enough to maintain a balanced diet and there was a varied menu developed by people who lived in the home.
People were supported to have maximum choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice.
People's privacy, dignity and independence were respected and promoted and people were well treated and supported by well trained and caring staff.
People's care plans were personalised and they were supported to make choices about participating in their chosen social and leisure interests on a regular basis.
People's end of life care wishes were discussed and documented in their care plans.
The provider's systems did not always effectively monitor the quality of care provided to drive improvements. A range of audits were undertaken but they failed to identify some of the shortfalls we found during our inspection. Audits did not include checks for PRN protocols or how slings should be configured. The registered manager took immediate action to make changes to the audits and checks following our
feedback on the day of inspection.
Staff received regular supervisions and told us they felt supported by their manager. There was a positive and caring culture at the service and it was calm and well organised.
Regular resident meetings took place along with surveys get feedback and views from people about their care, support, activities and food choices.
The service worked well in partnership with healthcare professionals.
