BRYN EITHIN HALL
Residential Care Home
Our Staff...
All our staff work hard to create a convivial atmosphere: we firmly believe that a united and happy team benefits not just the staff members themselves but also enhances the atmosphere for the residents.
This intangible quality undoubtably adds to a sense of 'home from home' for the residents which is invaluable and difficult to quantify.
Our staff are regularly appraised and there is a core belief in promoting, training and encouraging staff to progress. As a result of this, the Care Home has received 'The Investors in People Award' for training and education.
Our team is overseen by Susan Hanson, the independent director who has over 30 years experience working in the care sector and is a qualified Regiestered Manager. She says:
'Throughout my journey within the care sector I have gained skills and completed various courses. Taking care of elderly people (service user) is very rewarding, and along with Bernadette Johnson, the Registered Manager and our team who work brilliantly together. We have created a warm and welcoming home for the resident to enjoy, with home comforts, excellent standard of food, support of local doctors and community nurses.'
