Working at Emily Jackson House

Just basic community visits like school choirs and church, no activities coordinator or varied programme so the job is mostly routine personal care.

There had been visits from school choirs and a local church.

Staffing is enough to get by but staff say they are always busy and some agency covers one-to-one care.

“It is tricky because they are always busy but everything gets done” and “agency staff cover the 1 to 1s”

Only standard mandatory training like safeguarding and moving people, no specialist courses or funded qualifications.

all staff have completed mandatory safeguarding training... competencies were checked on topics, such as moving and handling and medicines management
