10th April 2014 - During an inspection in response to concerns
This inspection took place because concerns had been raised about the way the service was being provided. We had been told that a crash team and resuscitation team were not in place and that controlled medicines were not being stored securely and properly managed. Controlled medicines are medicines that require extra checks and special arrangements because of their potential form misuse. Consequently a Home Office license is required for their use. We found that appropriate equipment was in place for dealing with emergencies. Staff were trained to the appropriate level on how to deal with an emergency and a senior member of staff was always appointed to be in charge in these situations. We found that controlled medicines were stored and handled correctly. Staff received on going training and an annual appraisal of their work took place. This meant staff had an opportunity to discuss training needs and development in their role. Agency staff were used occasionally but generally if vacancies occurred, bank staff were used. The bank staff were familiar with the service and its practices which contributed to providing a consistent care to the people who used the service.
