We sometimes describe this as a scheduled inspection. This was an unannounced inspection. How we carried out this inspection We looked at the personal care or treatment records of people who use the service, carried out a visit on 14 October 2013, 15 October 2013, 16 October 2013, 21 October 2013, 22 October 2013, 23 October 2013 and 24 October 2013, observed how people were being cared for and checked how people were cared for at each stage of their treatment and care. We spoke with one or more advocates for people who use services, talked with people who use the service, talked with carers and / or family members and talked with staff. We reviewed information given to us by the provider, took advice from our specialist advisors and were accompanied by a specialist advisor. We were supported on this inspection by an expert-by-experience. This is a person who has personal experience of using or caring for someone who uses this type of care service. What people told us and what we found The focus of this inspection was the service provided by the Trust Headquarters, Doncaster location. The inspection team of 12 people consisted of inspectors, specialists and experts by experience. We spoke with 52 people who used the service and 13 relatives. We found that before people received any care or treatment they were asked for their consent. If they did not have capacity to consent the provider acted in accordance with the law. People told us they were asked for their consent and their care and treatment was explained to them. We found that care and treatment was planned and delivered in a way that ensured people's safety and welfare. Most people we spoke with told us they were happy with the care provided. We found that the provider worked in co-operation with others. Organisations which co- operated with the trust told us they were satisfied with the way the trust worked with them. We found that people who used the service were protected from the risk of abuse. People told us they felt safe. We found there were enough qualified, skilled and experienced staff to meet people's needs. People told us they felt there were enough staff on duty. | Inspection Report | Trust Headquarters, Doncaster | December 2013 www.cqc.org.uk 4 We found that staff were supported to deliver care and treatment safely. People told us they were satisfied that staff knew what they were doing. We found there were effective systems in place to assess and monitor the quality of service. People told us they were asked for their opinions. You can see our judgements on the front page of this report. More information about the provider Please see our website www.cqc.org.uk for more information, including our most recent judgements against the essential standards. You can contact us using the telephone number on the back of the report if you have additional questions. There is a glossary at the back of this report which has definitions for words and phrases we use in the report. | Inspection Report | Trust Headquarters, Doncaster | December 2013 www.cqc.org.uk 5 Our judgements for each standard inspected Consent to care and treatment Met this standard Before people are given any examination, care, treatment or support, they should be asked if they agree to it Our judgement The provider was meeting this standard. Before people received any care or treatment they were asked for their consent and the provider acted in accordance with their wishes. Where people did not have the capacity to consent, the provider acted in accordance with legal requirements. Reasons for our judgement We found that the provider, Rotherham Doncaster and South Humber NHS Foundation Trust had a policy for consent to examination or treatment. We reviewed this policy and found it covered all relevant areas. We visited the adult mental health inpatient services on Brodsworth and Cusworth Wards, Coral Lodge, and the Psychiatric Intensive Care Unit on Skelbrooke Ward. We spoke with people who used the service and staff, and reviewed people's care records. People who used the service told us that staff always asked for consent. We spoke with four members of staff who told us when and how they obtained consent. They told us that consent was constantly sought due to fluctuations in people's capacity. They explained this was also the case with people who were detained under the Mental Health Act 1983. They also described how people's capacity was assessed on admission and throughout their stay. Our review of people's care records showed evidence of consent being obtained. We also found that the appropriate forms had been completed under the Mental Capacity Act 2005. The Act and the associated Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards are designed to protect people who can't make decisions for themselves. We visited Amber Lodge, a low secure unit which was part of the learning disability forensic service. In this unit people were detained under the Mental Health Act 1983. We reviewed care records and spoke with people who used the service and staff. The staff we spoke with told us that people who used the service were reminded of their rights under the Mental Health Act on a regular basis and this was confirmed in the | Inspection Report | Trust Headquarters, Doncaster | December 2013 www.cqc.org.uk 6 records we reviewed. They were also able to explain to us how consent was obtained in the case of a person who was detained. We saw evidence in care records and through talking with people who used the service that people were involved in developing their care plans. We reviewed three care records, where we found from the notes of meetings that people were involved and consulted about their care plans, risk assessments and treatments. These discussions showed evidence that people agreed to their care and treatment. People we spoke with confirmed they attended their review meetings and that medical and nursing staff talked with them about their progress and treatment. They also told us that they had their rights explained to them on a regular basis. However, we found one care record where a number of care plans and treatments had not been consented to. We brought this to the attention of a senior manager who ensured consent was obtained. We also spoke with two people who told us that although they were aware they had a care plan they didn't know how to access it.

This landscape tends to be dominated by arable cultivation, improved grazing pastures and rye- grass leys, but some small pockets unimproved and semi-improved neutral grassland still survive. 1.2 The most diverse of these neutral grasslands are typically flower-rich hay meadows or pastures with a diversity of grasses and sedges such as common bent (Agrostis capillaries), sweet vernal-grass (Anthoxanthum oderatum), quaking grass (Briza media), crested dog's-tail (Cynosurus cristatus), red fescue (Festuca rubra), Yorkshire fog (Holcus lanatus), cock's-foot (Dactylis glomerata), spring sedge (Carex caryophyllea), glaucous sedge (Carex flacca), and varying proportions of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne).

  • Robin Hood As Much As Possible
    Issue 34 ∙ April-May 2010 . LeftLion Magazine Issue 34 contents April - May 2010 editorial Youths and ducks, If you’ve read any of the thirty-three previous issues of LeftLion, you’ll know that we’ve avoided covering the subject of Robin Hood as much as possible. There’s a good reason for that; because, like you, we’ve always known that there is far more to the Motherland than some bloke arsing about in Sherwood Forest, and we’d sooner give the less bigged-up avenues of Nottingham culture a shine. There are many reasons why we decided to cave in and roll out a massive tribute to the Hooded Man this ish. For one, it’s because of the resurgence of pride in our mythical lore. For two, it’s a reaction to the disgusting attempt by 9 16 28 the North to nick our local hero (hey, Yorkshire; we gave the world the greatest and most enduring goodies-versus- baddies story ever.

  • Cause Papers Project Standardization
    1 Cause Papers in the Diocesan Courts of the Archbishopric of York, 1300–1858 Editing and Standardisation in the Cause Papers Database The Cause Papers project provided an on-line searchable catalogue of more than 13,000 cause papers relating to cases heard between 1300 and 1858 in the Church Courts of the diocese of York, the original records for which are held at the Borthwick Institute for Archives at the University of York. The project aimed to pioneer a new standard of excellence in data accuracy and standardization. Cataloguing such a large and varied number of records posed numerous challenges in these areas, including the problem of how to incorporate spelling and language variations of surname and place names. The following document provides information on the methods used by the project team in compiling, editing and standardizing the data. It is split into the following sections:- 1) Information provided by the database 2) List of standard reference works used by the project team 3) List of types and sub-types of cases commonly used in the database 4) Standardization of Forenames 5) Standardization of Surnames – Part A 6) Standardization of Surnames – Part B 7) Problematic Place-names – Identification and Standardization Please note that this text is not intended as a guide to on-line catalogue. Users requiring assistance with searching the catalogue should consult the on-screen help text. 2 Editing and standardisation for the Cause Paper Database 1) Information provided by the database Owing to the volume and complexity of manuscript material involved, it was not possible to provide full transcriptions of the cause papers.

In territorial terms it was a time of loss. The diocese of Ripon was founded in 1836 taking with it some of the most heavily populated new industrial regions of West Yorkshire, Bradford, Halifax and Leeds. By 1836 the archbishop had also lost his peculiar jurisdiction over Hexhamshire and in 1837 the archdeaconry of Nottingham was transferred to the diocese of Lincoln. Even though a time of territorial loss for the diocese, it was a period of increased church building. When changing expectations of the parochial role of the clergy, the demand for clerical residence and the provision of a living wage for stipendary curates and increased parochial demands for preaching and the sacraments within a broadening definition of parochial work are added to this the period is seen to be one of repeated adaptation and change. ORDINATION- THE SOURCES From the middle of the eighteenth century onwards the information recorded in the York Institution Act Books can be validated and expanded by reference to the bundles of papers submitted by the candidates themselves prior to their taking orders.

  • A Saunter Through the Ages Down the Avenue Burghwallis
    A Saunter Through The Ages Down The Avenue Burghwallis Being An Unofficial History of Saint Helen’s Church & Some Village Gossip H. R. Dimon. March 1962 (HARRIS BROS) A PERSONAL INTRODUCTION Dear Subscriber, I have just been looking through some shocking old records — my school report, for instance. Boys, I suppose, keep either one or other of two people busy — the Doctor or the Policeman. In my case it was the former. He spoke to Father in the only language Pa understood: “The child’s a little hot-house plant.” This explains a laconic remark on my school report: “History — Good, when present” ! And to that the fact that I’ve never known what time it is, and it is obvious that I am no historian. Neither am I a “literary man.” The language I use has never been called anything but bad. Therefore, you have been warned; my qualifications “to write up a history” are as good as a plumber’s to bake a cake. If the result is as heavy as lead, the fault is in the mixing; the ingredients are good. Three reasons are given for making an attempt. Two follow immediately; the third is tacked on to the end of the foreword, as a tail. 1. For a long time a knitting-together of the historical data of our Church has seemed desirable. Having watched the reactions of a party of Americans round a guide in the Tower of London, on the spot where Sir Walter Raleigh was beheaded, one felt an inadequacy in our own treatment of visitors genuinely seeking after historical details of the Church.
