- Service users are enabled to build and maintain independent living skills
- Care plan reviews following changes in service user health / care needs
-Use of equipment and assistive technology to support service users independence and
manage risk
- Strong Management - Service users receive a consistent, safe and high quality service
that maximises their independence. The service develops their management staff that
take responsibility for delivery of a high quality service and retains high quality staff
Prevention is better than cure!
7.9 – Management of Health and Wellbeing Needs
-The care home is a physical and mental health promoting environment enabling service
users to optimise their health, enabling activities, exercise and a healthy lifestyle
-Hydration and Nutrition, Foot Care, Proactive medication reviews with GP and other
health professionals
- The provider ensures that service users are assessed for risk of falls within 24 hours of
admission (where possible) and recorded in care and support plan
-Service users who are vulnerable to falls are actively supported by their key worker or
equivalent members of the staff team to reduce / prevent the risk of a fall occurring
-Emergency admissions due to falls are minimised through proactive falls risk
management
-The provider maintains a falls register recording information such as causes, location etc
and uses this to reduce the risk of falls occurring within the care home
Prevention is better than cure!
7.14 – Care Home Staffing
-Staffing numbers, skills, qualifications, induction standards
-Staff receive regular training on core areas around health and safety, risk assessment,
moving and handling etc
-Registered Nursing Staff regularly liaise with GPs and other allied health professionals to
ensure health needs are met

managed
-Sharing best practice between providers (CH Provider Forum etc)
Prevention is better than cure!

regardless of any physical, sensory or cognitive impairment
