All staff are carefully selected by Miss Sarah Kirby & Miss Felicity Mctigue. A training programme is in progress in the Home, for all the care assistants, including drug administration, first aid, food hygiene, moving & positioning passport, N.V.Q. qualifications and many other courses. All staff are encouraged to attend courses and study days outside the home.

We have a selection of books which Residents are welcome to have the use of. There are ‘house daily papers’, if you would like your own daily paper or periodical these can be delivered and will be charged for separately.

We do all the laundry here, but we do ask relatives to mark clothes with names (initials) prior to arrival, and on any articles brought in subsequently.

We encourage residents to bring in articles of furniture and things from home to make their room more personal.
