I’ve been a General Manager for over ten years in other care homes. I worked my way up from care roles into management. I originally trained in management and marketing in my native Poland.

|---|---|---|
|
Since the early stages of the pandemic, our teams have been working to a pandemic plan which is updated regularly to reflect any changes to either UK or Scottish government guidance. This plan includes a range of measures aimed at both reducing the likelihood of new Covid-19 infections and reducing the spread of infections where they occur. |

| Infection Control Initiatives in place | ||
|---|---|---|
 |
Air Filtration & Purification | We are using air filtration and/or air purification devices within our care setting. |
|
Infection Control Training | Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections. |
| Safe Visiting Space | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
|||||
| 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.
