This does not meet the expected target of 50 of the care staff with an NVQ2 or above.

During the day the front door is kept closed and access is gained only by ringing the bell. The back door has a keycode for entry and all other external doors are linked to the alarm system. The manager also discussed the planned extension of the kitchen and was able to confirm that the building work will not affect the day-to-day running of the home or the provision of meals. The home owners are also planning to build a small sunroom as an extension to the sitting room, which will provide a quiet room which could be used for listening to music or entertaining visitors.
