Working at St. Euphrasia's Care Home

Staff numbers are just enough to meet basic needs with no agency, but no extra for unhurried personalised care.

People and staff told us there were enough staff on duty to meet people's needs. During our inspection we saw that staff were responsive to requests for assistance.

Only standard training like dementia and moving people, no specialist courses or paid qualifications.

This included annual training in safeguarding, moving and handling and dementia. Staff told us, 'Yes we get all the training we need'.

Activities include animal visits and kids from nursery plus spiritual time, but no special innovative programmes.

a 'home safari' where animals, including owls and rabbits, were brought to the home and nursery children also came to visit the sisters.
