Other Facilities Photos

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’ve redesigned our processes from viewings to moving in going beyond the basic guidelines to ensure our potential new residents, existing homeowners, and staff stay as safe as possible. We do this by:

1. Providing virtual information

We’re offering ‘virtual tours’ to reduce unnecessary visits.

2. Managing viewings safely

Viewings are carefully managed to be a safe experience by our Sales teams or House / Estate Managers for private sales.

3. Checking the health of visitors

Customers are required to complete a questionnaire to check that they don’t have any Covid-19 symptoms. In addition, they may have their temperature taken on arrival – if anyone has a high temperature, they will be asked to return home and re-book once their temperature has returned to normal.

4. Hygiene

Like all visitors, everyone attending a viewing will be asked to wash their hands upon arrival or use hand
sanitiser. We will also be encouraging them to wear a face covering, though this is not mandatory.

For McCarthy Stone sales: our teams will be cleaning apartments between visits.

Infection Control Initiatives in place
safe-tick Sterilisation & Disinfection Devices We are using sterilisation and/or disinfection devices within our care setting.

Social media provides an up to date window on the activities within a provider's setting.

With the restrictions on visiting during the pandemic, social media platforms such as these offer real insight when you are choosing a provider.

Infection Control Safe We are on Facebook

Most of our developments are more than happy to welcome a well behaved pet to live with you in your new home. Call 0800 153 3264 for more details of our terms and conditions.
