Meadowbrook, a new luxury care home in Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire, opens its doors to residents this July, with a grand launch to follow in December.
Meadowbrook's commitment to training is a crucial part of its offer. Alongside an extensive ‘step up’ course, the Meadowbrook team will be trained by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) on reducing the risk of falls in the home. Every employee will also receive training from Dementia Friends – a charity which provides knowledge and skills for supporting people living with dementia.
Meadowbrook is the latest in a new range of luxury homes from Connaught Care Collection. Residents have access to an on-site hair salon, spa, cinema room, and gym.
Chloe Graur, general manager at Meadowbrook, said: “When we were designing Meadowbrook, our goal was to make sure every resident instantly feels safe and secure in their new home. Through our market-leading training regime, we are confident the team now has the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to provide compassionate high-quality care. We want residents to know that, wherever they are in the building, there is someone just around the corner who can look after them when they need it.
“For too long, carers in the UK have had to make do with minimal training and inadequate support to do their vital work. At Meadowbrook, we want to challenge that norm by showing that investing in people can pay dividends in the long-term. This is just one of a bunch of exciting initiatives we have planned. Watch this space!”
