Our staff
The Residential Care element of our service is managed by an experienced management team who ensure that staff continually update their knowledge and skills and, where appropriate, maintain their registration with the Northern Ireland Social Care Council.
Our staff have lengthy experience of working in an environment that encourages our residents to develop and achieve their personal goals, through person-centred planning with professional staff and residents. Staff are trained in all mandatory training areas and, in order to meet the particular needs of our resident group, have training in sign language, Makaton and working with adults with autism. Staff are also pro-active in promoting health and well-being, with resident success stories in activities, weight loss and the promotion of independence.
