A shortlist of homes was produced to support engagement with a number of homes from various areas within the borough. Homes were chosen to be representative (for older people, people with learning disabilities, people using mental health services).

Recommendations

  • The home should consider changing the fire alarms so that there is a flashing light as well when the alarm sounds. Although there are no deaf service users, if there is a user with a family member who is deaf, this could aid them in the future.
  • A variety of training sessions should be offered to staff such as deaf awareness training, visual impairment awareness training and training for working with people with learning disabilities.
  • The home should ensure that any workmen in the premises understand the dangers of leaving items in pathways being accessed by anyone residents or visitors.
  • The home should review its policies with regards to the Accessible Information Standards to ensure support for people with access requirements is available.
