Meet The Manager

Kelly Hart is Home Manager at The Limes.

Welcome to The Limes, located in the market town of Driffield in the East Riding of Yorkshire. The Home is a short walk from the town centre, easily accessible from the A614 and is well served by public transport

Each of our 97 ensuite bedrooms some of which are double occupancy and perfect for married couples is furnished to a high standard offering Residents the chance to enjoy comfort and tranquillity. At The Limes providing independence and choice is very important – One reason we try and encourage residents to personalise their rooms with their own belongings to help them feel at home.

We believe that life at The Limes should include the best care, the best of life in the best environment.

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 working within the government guidelines to help protect our staff and clients.

Infection Control Initiatives in place
safe-tick Infection Control Training Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections.
safe-tick Virus Testing We are testing for viral infection when symptoms present within our care setting.
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.
