Meet The Manager

Karen Eastwood is Home Manager at Ashurst Mews Care Home.

Ashurst Mews: A Respected Care Home in Northamptonshire

Ashurst Mews Care Home is situated just outside Northampton in the quaint village of Moulton. We offer residential, nursing and dementia care here at our Northampton nursing home. What does drive all of our staff is the happiness of our residents, ensuring that we involve all of our residents in every aspect of home life, make new friends and even take up new hobbies. After all, you’re never too old for something new.

Our home happily accommodates couples and companions who wish to remain together as they continue their care journey and make new memories side by side.

We have a lovely garden that surrounds the home and is wheelchair accessible, of course. Sitting out in the sunshine and admiring the roses when the weather is fine always raises our spirits. Our interiors are beautifully designed and allow plenty of room for all sorts of activities, socialising, or just for sitting quietly, if you prefer some essential ‘me’ time every now and then. Our cinema room is a massive hit with our film buff residents, with those good old musicals a firm favourite on a relaxing Sunday afternoon.

We like our residents to personalise their bedrooms – Residents are encouraged to bring their own mementoes and keepsakes to their fully furnished and spacious bedrooms, this can help with settling in for new residents. Housekeepers see that they are always kept in order – the rooms that is, not the residents!

Family and friends are urged to come and visit our care home in Northamptonshire as often as they like and get themselves as involved as their loved ones. The better the communication, the better the care. Come and enjoy an afternoon matinée in our cinema with us; we’ve even got the popcorn.

To see what we get up to you might want to view our dedicated Facebook page that is kept updated with all the activities and goings-on in the home, or call our friendly manager team if you have further questions or would like a tour of the home.

Respite Care Yes

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.

What we're doing to keep residents & visitors safe

We are confident that our care homes are now some of the very safest places to live and work.

All of our staff have been trained in additional and heightened cleansing protocols and hygiene regimes, and these are being supported by a leading sanitisation system as part of our comprehensive infection controls. Testing regimes will continue for staff, residents and visitors.

We have re-aligned the resident in-house services to meet social distance guidance from the Government, for areas such as lounges and dining rooms, and for visiting entertainers and hair dressers; we are working hard to restore these services within the ‘new normal’ circumstances as soon as we can, when lockdown rules allow.

Infection Control Initiatives in place
safe-tick Infection Control Training Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections.
safe-tick Sterilisation & Disinfection Devices We are using sterilisation and/or disinfection devices within our care setting.
safe-tick Virus Testing We are testing for viral infection when symptoms present within our care setting.
Safe Visiting Space

Avery Healthcare has invested in outdoor garden ‘visitor pods’

The pods, are a garden room specifically designed to facilitate safe face-to-face contact with relatives and visitors. Each pod contains a floor to ceiling partition screen and a hands-free intercom so that communication is clear and safe for use. They are fitted with internal electrics and two, low-surface temperature electric panel heaters – suitable for these winter months.

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.

Activities Are So Important

We put a special emphasis on keeping bodies moving. A healthy and active body means a healthy spirit and positive outlook. Some of residents had great fun in hosing down the patio and getting rid of the bird poo recently. They didn’t just sit there and watch others at work, they did it themselves! We enjoy sitting-down activities too. Here is some of what we do:

  • Daily exercise session with personal trainer
  • Cinema Club with all the good old favourite films
  • Monthly visits of exotic animals and birds from the team at Zoo Lab
  • Going to the local church and clubs
  • Pottery lessons
  • Going out for fish and chips

We have established strong ties with local schools and associations, which ensure that residents remain part of the wider community. The local Moulton Residents Association host their meetings at Ashurst,and residents help deliver their magazine. Moulton Church comes in for monthly Sunday services. We often have trips out with the other nearby Avery homes, Spencer House and Cliftonville, so we have a wide social circle to draw on.
