Working at Blossom View Respite Home

Training covers basics like spotting abuse and safe medication handling, but no specialist courses or funded qualifications mentioned.

Staff had training on how to recognise and report abuse and they knew how to apply it. Staff were trained to understand the safe handling of medicines. Regular checks were completed to ensure staff remained competent to safely administer medicines.

Staff numbers are enough to get people out and about, but no details on low staff turnover or avoiding agency workers.

The service had enough staff for people to take part in activities and visits how and when they wanted.

Just basic outings into the community, no activities coordinator or varied programme to make the job more interesting.

One relative said, '[They] get [relative] out and about doing things in the community.'
