Meet The Manager

Sharmaine Hall is Home Manager at Westhill Park Care Home.

We are very proud of the five-star accommodation and care that Westhill Park offers.

Our accommodation standards and features are superior in so many ways but, most importantly, I believe we have built a team to deliver a very special and unique standard of person-centred care and support to anyone who chooses to make Westhill Park their home of choice.

We also know only too well how difficult and emotional the decisions are for everyone when considering a move to a new home.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have.

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 don’t mix floors. 28 day testing, staff wear full ppe and are covid tested weekly along with twice weekly LFT’s. New residents or anyone returning from appointments are in 14 day isolation and are barrier nursed as a precaution. Not mixing with public without ppe, no public in building and staff having to temp check and ppe everyday before work.

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.
Safe Visiting Space
safe-tick We have a 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.
