Our dedicated staff team
Our team of dedicated staff will always play a key role in the welfare of our residents.
When we welcome a new staff member onto our dedicated team, they receive a robust induction programme of the home and the service. New employees also complete a shadowing period of two weeks before they commence on the rota.
Staff members who are new to health and social care are enrolled onto the Care Certificate and are supported to complete the certificate within twelve weeks.
Arden Lodge has a workforce development plan which addresses all ongoing training and development needs of each member of staff.
Catering, Housekeeping and Maintenance staff are fully trained and hold the relevant certificates for their post. All new staff will undergo the required DBS (Disclosing and Barring Service), police checks before they commence employment at the home.
Management
We know that the leadership of the home is critical to all its operations, and we pride ourselves on having a management approach which creates an open, positive and inclusive atmosphere.
Most importantly, our Manager ensures a loving, friendly atmosphere for our residents to live in.
