Working at Edward House

Enough staff to get the job done safely, but no word on low turnover or using hardly any agency workers.

The service made sure there were enough qualified, skilled and experienced staff... Leaders had oversight of staffing levels to ensure that people were supported safely.

Standard training like infection control and equality courses done, but no specialist training or funded qualifications for career growth.

Staff received the induction and training they needed to meet the needs of people at the home. Equality and Diversity training was in place for all staff... completion compliance was high.

Varied basic activities like skittles, outings and walks with a coordinator, but nothing innovative or specialist to make the job more interesting.

“The activities provided for the residents are varied and interesting. We have joined in some and really enjoyed them.”
