Terms and conditions relating to their stay at the home are discussed at this time. The home has a statement of purpose and a service user guide. These provide an overview of the service for prospective service users. Service users are given copies of these documents during their assessment visit to the home.

7 Lifestyle Brynawel House has a routine for service users. It is designed to give service users a structure to their lives which can be replicated when they return to their own home. Through communication with the referring agency, the home ensures that all service users have mental capacity to understand the limitations placed on their freedom whilst undertaking the rehabilitative programme which is subsequently agreed in a contract. Service users are encouraged to be self-caring and are expected to contribute to the running of the home and are required to undertake domestic duties. The home has a policy of full service user involvement. Weekly meetings are held and a service user takes the residential lead in these meetings. Minutes are taken and actions followed up at the next meeting. Service user comments included: house meetings are very helpful you can say if there is anything wrong with rooms. As part of the rehabilitation programme, the home provides the opportunity to become involved in a variety of social activities and hobbies depending on the service user s care plan. The manager and service users spoken with confirmed the extensive social and leisure activities that are provided inside and outside the home. All service user rooms are equipped with television, DVD player, alarm clock radio / CD player. Service users are responsible for keeping their own finances and possessions.

14 A note on CSSIW s inspection and report process This report has been compiled following an inspection of the service undertaken by Care and Social Services Inspectorate for Wales (CSSIW) under the provisions of the Care Standards Act 2000 and associated Regulations. The primary focus of the report is to comment on the quality of life and quality of care experienced by service users. The report contains information on how we inspect and what we find. It is divided into distinct parts mirroring the broad areas of the National Minimum Standards. CSSIW`s inspectors are authorised to enter and inspect regulated services at any time. Inspection enables CSSIW to satisfy itself that continued registration is justified. It also ensures compliance with: Care Standards Act 2000 and associated Regulations whilst taking into account the National Minimum Standards. The service`s own statement of purpose. At each inspection episode or period there are visit/s to the service during which CSSIW may adopt a range of different methods in its attempt to capture service users` and their relatives`/representatives` experiences. Such methods may for example include selfassessment, discussion groups, and the use of questionnaires. At any other time throughout the year visits may also be made to the service to investigate complaints and to respond to any changes in the service. Readers must be aware that a CSSIW report is intended to reflect the findings of the inspector at a specific period in time. Readers should not conclude that the circumstances of the service will be the same at all times. The registered person(s) is responsible for ensuring that the service operates in a way which complies with the regulations. CSSIW will comment in the general text of the inspection report on their compliance. Those Regulations which CSSIW believes to be key in bringing about change in the particular service will be separately and clearly identified in the requirement section. As well as listing these key requirements from the current inspection, requirements made by CSSIW during the year, since the last inspection, which have been met and those which remain outstanding are included in this report. The reader should note that requirements made in last year`s report which are not listed as outstanding have been appropriately complied with. Where key requirements have been identified, the provider is required under Regulation 25B (Compliance Notification) to advise CSSIW of the of any action that they have been required to take in order to remedy a breach of the regulations. The regulated service is also responsible for having in place a clear, effective and fair complaints procedure which promotes local resolution between the parties in a swift and satisfactory manner, wherever possible. The annual inspection report will include a summary of the numbers of complaints dealt with locally and their outcome. Page 13
15 CSSIW may also be involved in the investigation of a complaint. Where this is the case CSSIW makes publicly available a summary of that complaint. CSSIW will also include within the annual inspection report a summary of any matters it has been involved in together with any action taken by CSSIW. Should you have concerns about anything arising from the inspector`s findings, you may discuss these with CSSIW or with the registered person. Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales is required to make reports on regulated services available to the public. The reports are public documents and will be available on the CSSIW web site: Page 14
