Our philosophy entails providing the safest environment for our residents with dignity, respect and privacy whilst building a lifelong relationship with those we serve.
- Genuinely care about helping the elderly

PURPOSE OF ROLE

To identify and provide activities that enhance the lives of the elderly people living in the Care Home. Activity coordinators need to be good listeners. If a resident has a particular desire to try a new activity, coordinators should do their best to make it happen. Similarly, if residents have feedback or a complaint about an activity, this should be taken on board to try and improve the experience for everyone the next time around.

- To arrange monthly meetings with manager to discuss projects in and out of the Home
