Working at Brendoncare Knightwood

Staff training included mandatory subjects such as; safeguarding, medicines, food hygiene, infection control and moving and handling. Formal staff supervisions had taken place and were two-way conversations.

The manager, who was new in post, told us they actively engaged staff in decisions about the home whilst working closely with the deputy manager. There was a positive culture, and staff told us they felt happy in their work and felt included.

The home had a wellbeing co-ordinator who arranged an activities schedule for people. People had access to a wide range of activities which included group activities and one to one personal focus sessions.
