Care Home Staff
The home offers high quality care and this is only possible with hard working, properly qualified management and staff who are regularly appraised and adequately supported through training and supervision.
Everybody in our team is considered to be important and the home’s excellent reputation testifies to the very high quality of both the care team and the support staff.
Our staff are only employed on the receipt of satisfactory references and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) enhanced disclosures as well as a successful POVA (Protection of Vulnerable Adults) check.
Training & Qualifications
We view staff training as of crucial importance. Training ensures that staff are up to date and equipped with the very latest knowledge and techniques and are, above all, safe. Training also ensures that they are adequately supported and enabled to do their jobs well and also that their career development needs are met. As a business, we can only attract and keep high quality staff if we offer such training.
A very important area of training for us is what is referred to as ‘statutory’ or ‘mandatory’ training. This can be described as ‘essential’ training in areas to do with Health & Safety and includes: fire safety, manual handling, health and safety compliance, infection control, first aid and food hygiene.
All of our staff have attended courses in these subjects and are expected to attend regular updates. All of our food handlers have attended courses and received certificates in Health and Hygiene for Food Handlers.
Other training that all of our staff have includes ‘Dealing with dementia and other forms of mental impairment’, ‘Recognising abuse’, ‘Administration of medication’, ‘Equality and diversity’ and ‘Dignity in care’.
All certificates obtained by our staff are available for inspection.
