Our Nursing Home Staff
We are very proud of our staff retention levels which mean we can offer stability and excellent continuity of care to our residents. Our Registered Nurses have been at Stanfield on average for 10years.
Within our team of nursing home staff, you’ll find Registered Nurses on duty twenty four hours a day. Our Registered Nurses lead lead a team of highly trained staff who look after residents’ individual needs.
Stanfield’s Nursing Home Staff are at the Heart of Our Care Home
An important part of our home’s overall ethos, is the ability for our nursing home staff to be able to interact and have a social relationship with our residents, not just carry out their required duties.
To enable this to happen, we make sure that we have sufficient staffing levels and sufficient hours within the whole day for our care team, at all times. This allows our staff to be able to meet our residents’ needs quite comfortably and not be stressed themselves.
For example, our meal and beverage staff are not just there to get a meal in front of somebody. They are there for the social occasion too.
Our Nursing Home Staff Selection Process
Our robust staff selection process ensures that every new staff member who joins is both suitably skilled and shares our values.
We have a strong continuous professional development policy in place too. Our continuous professional development programme ensures our nursing home staff frequently develop and reflect on their ability to provide high quality care.
We teach our staff members both about the theory supporting the care we provide here and about how to practically deliver it.
To bring a breadth of experience to our team, we intentionally recruit from a variety of age groups and nationalities.
Our residents’ well being is at the heart of everything we do here at Stanfield. For that reason, all of our staff members – whether part of the nursing or ancillary team – attend courses on patient-centered care, protecting vulnerable adults and food hygiene .
The most important thing to every member of staff at Stanfield Nursing Home is being able to provide a high quality home-from-home environment that feels like a family home, where we can build up strong, friendly relationships between staff and residents, whilst delivering the very best in care at all times.
