These are the outcomes that people staying in care homes should experience. They reflect the things that people have said are important to them:

 

People stay in a safe and well-maintained home that is homely, clean, pleasant and hygienic.

 

People stay in a home that has enough space and facilities for them to lead the life they choose and to meet their needs. The home makes sure they have the right specialist equipment that encourages and promotes their independence. Their room feels like their own, it is comfortable and they feel safe when they use it.

 

 

This is what people staying in this care home experience:

 

Judgement:

 

People using this service experience excellent quality outcomes in this area. We have made this judgement using a range of evidence, including a visit to this service.

 

The home is very well maintained so that people who live at Stone House live in clean, safe and comfortable surroundings.

 

Evidence:

 

During our visit we walked round the home and saw all the shared (communal) areas as well as a number of bedrooms. All the bedrooms are en suite single rooms and the standard of decor and furnishings is excellent. The home was clean and odour free.

 

People who live at Stone House had made their rooms more homely using ornaments, pictures, photographs and some furniture they had brought with them when they moved in.

 

People who live at the home told us, "The home is spotlessly clean", "The home is always fresh and clean" and "The home is always clean and the cleaner is very good". Other comments we received included "I like my room" and "I get on well with the other residents and staff at the home".
