Our Management Team, Staff and Volunteers
The Trust is managed on a day to day basis by our dedicated, friendly and approachable management team who have regular contact with our Trustees.
Staff and volunteers
Senior care assistants, care assistants, activities coordinator and domestic staff make up the rest of the team of 30 staff.
All care staff have experience of caring for the elderly in a residential environment and have achieved or are working towards NVQ level 2 or 3 in Care. We are proud to say that lots of our staff have worked at Yercombe Lodge for many years and contribute to the ‘family’ feeling here. All our staff are fully trained to maintain quality standards to the national requirements specified by the Care Quality Commission.
We also have a team of volunteers who work with our staff and service users, often focussing on supporting activities with residents and day centre members, but there are many other volunteering opportunities within the Trust such as maintenance, grounds management, fundraising, website management, IT and so on.
