Furthermore to develop an understanding of values theories and policies underpinning health and social care practice and the mechanism that exist to promote good practice.Scenario: Report by Care Quality Commission Game Care Home LondonGame Care Home is a small (32 clients) residential care home situated in London. However recently the Care Quality Commission (CQC) placed Game Care Home into special measures following a series of inspection in June July September 2015 and June 2016.The clients at the residential home have a variety of care needs (physical and medical) and as such are depended on their health carers for support. Nevertheless following the recent damning report by Care Quality Commission on Game Care Home you were immediately appointed Manager by the Board of Directors of residential care home. At this meeting you were made aware of the numerous complaints from clients and families about the lack of codes of practice and basic quality of care (e.g. poor hygiene practices verbal abuse and inadequately managed medicines).Summary findings of Care Quality Commission Report (CQC)Game Care Home failed to provide care which was safe effective caring well-led and responsive to people s needs.At this inspection the provider was in breach of eight regulations of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014. Each of the areas that were found to be in breach during our July 2015 inspection were still in breach under the equivalent new regulations.CQC found that the quality of the care records was poor. There were inconsistencies and they lacked detail about the health conditions people were living with and how staff needed to support them.There was little to occupy people s time in the home.The service was poorly managed. There was very little monitoring of the quality of the service provided taking place. There was no satisfactory complaints system in place and where people s views had been sought they had not been acted upon.Risks to people s wellbeing were not routinely identified reviewed and managed to ensure that people were kept as safe as possible.People were not protected from risks associated relating to the premises or poor hygiene practices.People s safety had been compromised in a number of areas. The premises both internally and externally needed maintenance to ensure the welfare and safety of people living in and working in the home.Risks to people s welfare were not routinely reviewed and were not always acted uponStaffing levels were not always adequate throughout all times of the day the day to ensure that people s needs could be met. Hazardous cleaning materials were left unsecured.Care plans did not contain enough detail for staff on how to look after people in accordance with their needs which put people at risk of poor or unsafe care.Medicines management arrangements and administration practices were not robust.There were concerns regarding infection prevention and control measures in the home.People were not receiving effective care.Training arrangements were haphazard and staff had not received the training and supervisory support they required to ensure they cared for people in a safe and effective way.People were not adequately assessed to identify if they were at risk of poor nutrition.Where health professionals had been involved in people s care their guidance was not always implemented.People had mixed views about how caring the staff were. Whilst we observed that staff spoke in a respectful and friendly manner with people some day to day practices in the home were not respectful and did not uphold people s dignity.The quality of the care records was poor. There were inconsistencies and they lacked detail about the health conditions people were living with and how staff needed to support them.There was very little monitoring of the quality of the service provided taking place.There was not a satisfactory complaints system in place. Where people s views had been sought they had not been acted upon.The overall rating for this provider is Inadequate .This means that it is in Special measures. Special measures in Adult Social Care provides a framework within which we can use our enforcement powers in response to inadequate care and can work with or signpost to other organisations in the system to help ensure improvements are made.Services in special measures are kept under review and if we have not taken action to cancel the provider s registration will be inspected again within six months.The expectation is that providers found to have been providing inadequate care should have made significant improvements within this timeframe.In your role as the Manager of Game Care Home you are required to refer the Care Quality Commission Report.Note: The above scenario must be used across all the learning outcomes and assessment criteria.TASK 1: BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND HOW PRINCIPLES OF SUPPORT ARE IMPLEMENTED IN HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE1.1 Explain how principles of support are applied to ensure that individuals are cared for in Game Care Home1.2 Outline the procedure for protecting clients patients and colleagues from harm at Game Care Home.1.3 Analyse the benefit of following a person-centred approach with service users at Game Care Home.1.4 Explain ethical dilemmas and conflict that may arise when providing care support and protection to elderly clients at Game Care Home. Note to answer 1.4: either the scenarios (below) concerning Mrs. Owen or Mr. Evans can be used.Scenario: Game Care Home: Mrs. OwenEx-nurse 66-year-old widower Mrs. Owen suffers from dementia. She used to be an active member of the local community and regularly played the church organ and piano. Even though her memory is affected by dementia she still enjoys playing the piano. Her close family and friends visit her regularly. Nevertheless she is now incontinent unsteady on her feet and often refuses to wash. Because of her mood swings she often remains in her room supported by care workers.Jane Davis one of Mrs. Owen s close friends questioned a care worker about the bruises on her friend s face arms and legs and the fact that she often appears agitated when she visits her. The care worker informs Jane Davis that because Mrs. Owen often loses her balance she secured in a wheelchair with transit straps. The care worker stated that Mrs. Owen s agitation could be associated to her dementia. On many occasions Mrs. Owen falls out of the wheelchair because of the difficulty care workers have in strapping her resistance in allowing them to do. However Emily Smith said it is imperative that Mrs. Owen is safety secure in a wheel otherwise serious physical damage could result. The care worker appears to be unconcerned.Issue of Human Rights Act 1998: implications for clinical practice Article 3: In the case of Mrs. Owen it is possible that she feels restricted and/or degraded by being restrained in a wheelchair. On the other hand failure to stabilise her could result in injury or ill-treatment. It is not likely that these actions would meet the requirements for Article 3 to be applied.Article 8: May be applied as it concerns the right to well-being through retaining autonomy choice and dignity.Scenario: Game Care Home: Mr. EvansFifty-seven-year-old Jamaican bachelor Mr. Evans has a learning disability (difficulty in understanding new or complex information or new skills) with a reduced ability to cope independently (impaired social functioning). He also had a history petty crimes and has been assigned to Game Care Home as there was no other facility for his support. For a while Mr. Evans has had a habit of collecting keys (mainly those belonging to the Manager care workers and knives at the care home. These actions were seen as putting clients and management safety at risk particularly in the event of fire or access to medication. In the past Mr. Evans has self-harmed himself with kitchen knives. Because of Mr. Evans habitual habit of collecting keys and knives his psychologist instructed that care workers at the care home should systematically search him bodily and his room. Staff at the care home have suggested that Mr. Evans movements inside and outside the home be restricted. His family have bitterly complained about this treatment. Even though Mr. Evans has a learning disability he is still compos mentis (full control of his mind and able to make decisions) and for nearly two years has refrained from collecting knives and other peoples keys. However at no time has he ever been consulted about his feelings about the restrictions and invasion of privacy been imposed upon him.Issue of Human Rights Act 1998: implications for clinical practiceArticle 8: Undermining Mr. Evans through invasion of privacyArticle 2: The reason for the systematic searches is for the protection of residents and employees of the Game Care Home right to lifeTASK 2: BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT OF POLICY LEGISLATION REGULATION CODES OF PRACTICE AND STANDARDS ON ORGANISATION POLICY AND PRACTICEAnswer in context in the above scenario2.1 Explain the implementation of policies legislation regulations and codes of practice that are relevantto Game Care Home.2.2 Explain how local policies and procedures can be developed in Game Care Home inaccordance with national and policy requirements2.3 Evaluate the impact of policy legislation regulation and codes of practice on organisational policyand practice at Game Care Home.TASK 3: BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND THE THEORIES THAT UNDERPIN HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE PRACTICEAnswer in context in the above scenario3.1 Explain the theories that underpin your work as a care worker at Game Care Home3.2 Analyse how social processes impact on your service users at Game Care Home3.3 Evaluate the effectiveness of inter-professional working for your service users at Game Care HomeASSIGNMENT:You must produce one type-written piece of work consisting of 3000 words (+/- 10%) covering all the assessment criterion in LO1-LO4 as one document.
