Fennells Financial Control Operational Expertise Hands On Support
Care Home Turnaround Presenter: Fred Fennell
The interesting parts • Researching the case-prior. • Getting the complete picture. • The full story from the inspectors and L/A. • Are there any Safeguarding issues? • Any complaints orwhistle blowing?
What exactly are the problems? • Start with the owners/directors. • Then the managers. • Then work through the staff as needed to find out • Liaise with the L/A’s and CQC • What is the quality like? • Does it need closing?
All this may only take one visit and some time in preparation and preparing a report • It may take a couple of visits + o/work • It could need a weekly visit + • We may need to take over immediately if the Registered Manager walks out • I may need to become the Nominated Individual
Once we know the problem/s we decide on a plan to bring a swift conclusion • Report on the options • Take immediate action and turn it around • Let’s look at some real examples
Real life example 1: • 100 bed care home (+-) Midlands • Second Poor rating – Low occupancy – Complaints & Safeguarding issues – preclusion on placements from Local Authorities – Whistle blowing issues • The owners (small group) called us in
Real life example 1: 100 bed – Midlands • De-brief with owners • De-brief with Registered Manager • 4 weeks CQC inspection & LA Monitoring • 12 weeks CQC inspection & LA Monitoring • New Manager • Ex Manager- Tribunal
Real life example 1: 100 bed – Midlands End Result • New Manager • Good rating • Good occupancy – good EBITDA • AQA • Not Essential Standards – not financial up to now
Real life example 2: • Midlands Care Home, one of a small group of three. • This was a medium sized home but 50% occupancy, It was loss making and a real problem. It needed to be closed due to HMRC and effect on the group • Will have two homes left in same LA’s area
Real life example 2: • My first visit - Break time • Liaised with: • Manager • Staff • Service Users Families/advocates • LA’s • CQC
Real life example 2: Result: • Home closed in 10 days • Every service user found accommodation • No deaths • CQC & LA’s delighted • No animosity with the two other homes • These two homes now using John Fennell - Equivalent of their own Financial Director • First month considerable savings
Real life example 3: • A small to medium sized Care Home was about to be wound up by HMRC for typical non payment of NIC etc in the Midlands. • FF closed the home in just over a week • All the service users were found suitable accommodation, nobody died ! • LA’s & CQC were happy and it is fair to say the Bank ended up better off. • Interesting reasons for failure.
Real life example 4: • Two very profitable care homes run by the owner with one rated Good and one Adequate at the moment, but does not have a registered manager (application in) • On paper nothing is wrong and they are trading full with a waiting list • But the owner is now ill
