Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.

| Infection Control Initiatives in place | ||

Independent Assessments | We have been independently assessed in our approach to infection control. |

Infection Control Training | Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections. |
| Connectivity for resident testing, monitoring & communications |

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.

We offer our residents a range of spaces to relax in, including our garden, lounges and quiet spaces. We have ‘the Library’ where you can relax in our leather chesterfield furnishings and oak panelled surroundings, maybe watch a film or sporting events on the large television. Our salon provides weekly appointments to meet hairdressing needs and clothes are laundered on site. We also offer Sensory Street, a replica street of vintage shops and a tearoom which complements our programme of reminiscence activities. There is a fully functioning sweet shop, along with a post office and butchers’ shop that have interactive memorabilia. All of these things bring people happy memories through long-term recall, and our staff are trained to have the dementia awareness required to maximise this experience with and for the residents. |
