One of the really good things is that the management support you if you have any concerns.
A warm, safe and supportive environment:
All our Homes offer excellent facilities and a safe and secure environment for service users. Services and facilities at all our residential care homes include:
Staff Training
Staff within our Homes will be expected to undertake training (minimum qualification of NVQ level 2 or Health and Social Care level 2. It is intended that all staff progress their training as they and the company wish, and in line with the Health and Social Care Act 2008 requirements relating to workers.
The Homes will not employ people who do not wish to undertake training as the company view training as a vital issue and paramount to the quality of the service provided.
Keyworkers
Meadowview Care Ltd operate a key-worker system. Each service user will have at least one named key-worker who is responsible for ensuring that the service user’s needs are addressed and views are represented. The key-worker(s) also have more of a general administrative role ensuring that there is regular liaison between the home and family/carers, education, social workers, GP and other professionals as appropriate.
