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

To protect our homeowners, employees and visitors, we’ve changed the way we work — from viewings to moving in.

Your safety, and that of our homeowners and teams will always be our number one priority.

We’ve redesigned the way we do things, going beyond public health guidelines, so whether you’re visiting a development for the first time or about to move into an apartment, you can feel confident that you’re in safe hands.

Please see below all the precautions we have in place to ensure the safety of all our homeowners, staff and visitors.

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.
