Working at Orchard Grove Reablement Centre

Just some basic activities like art club and gardening with occasional visitors, so the role might feel mostly routine personal care and rehab support.

There were some organised activities available for people to take part in if they wished to do so. This included an art club for example. Some people also took part in gardening activities in the grounds of the service. Some outside organisations visited the service occasionally

Staff numbers are enough to keep up with calls, but no word on long-term staff staying or low use of agency workers.

There were sufficient numbers of staff to ensure people were well supported and could answer call bells promptly.

Some medication errors happened in the past and got reported to the council, even with plans to fix them.

The manager had identified some issues with medicines administration and had plans in place to address them. These errors had been reported to the local authority.
