8/10

nicest, most approachable manager…(registered manager name) is out on the floor and their door is never shut
Programmes
4/10
!
We don't have an activities co-ordinator at the moment..but some of the staff attempt to provide some sort of activities now and again
Points to consider
No activities coordinator, so activities are patchy and done by care staff now and then.

Only standard training plus some extras like dementia care, no funded qualifications or career progression.
