Working at Elsyng House Care Home

Staff talked about a strong culture of teamwork... 'Everybody works as a team and helps each other to make sure the residents are happy and well looked after!'

There were enough staff to ensure people's care and support needs were met. At the time of the inspection there were no agency care staff being used but 2 vacancies for nurses covered by regular agency staff.

Staff received a robust induction including the Care Certificate, regular supervision and appraisal, and a programme of regular training to ensure staff were up-to-date with best practice.

The home had a dedicated activities team and there was a wide range of activities... opera singer, therapy dog, St.Patricks Day, children come in from the local school, mini-Olympics.
