Framland

The spacious lounge/dining room is on the ground floor, and there are three other small sitting rooms. There is an assisted bathroom and one walk-in shower room. The garden has a woodland path, which has been designed for texture, smell and visual stimulation. A passenger lift is available to provide access to the first floor.

There are garden tables to sit out at and lots of shade, including arbors and an awning. The people living here are encouraged to take a daily walk around the circular pathway. The garden is large and secure and this enables us to keep the people living here safe. We have lots of outdoor activities ranging from hoopla to having afternoon teas.

The Care Manager, who is registered by the Care Quality Commission, is responsible for the dedicated

team of over 40 staff members.

Typically, Framland has four carers and a senior carer on shift in the day, and three carers and a senior carer on shift in the evening. During the day, there is also a Hummingbird on shift who supports those living with dementia by offering company and support, often reading with the residents, singing with them and praying with them. There are two carers on shift overnight, and up to five at weekends with two overnight.

We also have an Activities and Community Engagement Facilitator, a Maintenance and Housekeepers who work in different parts of the home – one in the kitchen, a team of two carrying out cleaning throughout the home. Our night staff provide a laundry so that the team can ensure that the home is always clean and well-presented and that those who live with us have a well-laundered wardrobe.

We are supported by a central team consisting of Operations, Property Services, Finance, Marketing and Communications, and Human Resources.
