Recommendation 1

1. To ensure all children’s needs and routines can be safely met and supported. The service should review personal plans regularly in line with guidance. This should include, but not limited to all about me information, registration documents, support plans and individual risk assessments. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: ‘My personal plan (sometimes referred to as a care plan) is right for me because it sets out how my needs will be met, as well as my wishes and choices’ (HSCS 1.15) This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: ‘I am fully involved in developing and reviewing my personal plan, which is always available to me’ (HSCS 2.17)

Recommendation 2

2. To ensure children’s healthcare needs can be safely met, the service should ensure all relevant medication documentation is in place and reviewed with children and families. This should include, but not limited to, having clear protocols and systems in place where children self-administer medication. This would support staff in maintaining children’s safety and wellbeing in line with best practice guidance. This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: ‘ If I need help with medication, I am able to have as much control as possible’ (HSCS 2.23) This is to ensure that care and support is consistent with the Health and Social Care Standards (HSCS) which states that: ‘I experience high quality care and support based on relevant evidence, guidance and best practice’ (HSCS 4.11)
