WITH the Covid-19 pandemic causing job loss and redundancies, the opening of a new Salisbury care home has enabled some to test out a new and \u201cenjoyable\u201d career path.<\/p>\n
Hostess Aimee Ormsby previously worked for a Salisbury retailer but was furloughed in March and made redundant in June.<\/p>\n
Declan Hadrick had served in the military and then marketing sector, before deciding to retrain as a carer and dedicate his career to helping others.<\/p>\n
Care home Old Sarum Manor was there to offer this job opportunity \u2013 to join the care home family \u2013 to a number of residents in the community impacted by the pandemic, who wanted to retrain or try something new.<\/p>\n
Aimee said being made redundant was \u201ca blessing in disguise\u201d, adding: \u201cI\u2019m really proud to be part of the Old Sarum Manor team.<\/p>\n
\u201cI see this as a fresh start and I\u2019m really enjoying it. I was thinking of going to university to train as a nurse but now I\u2019m planning on training and developing my career in care here.<\/p>\n
\u201cEveryone in the team is very welcoming and I\u2019m really excited to start getting to know our new residents.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Earlier this week the home in Longhenge celebrated 87-year-old Bob Harper from Fleet as the first of many residents moving in, picture above.<\/p>\n
An in-house cinema, library, coffee shop and tea room, hair and nail salon and bar and restaurant where residents can request favourite meals are some of the amenities the new site in Longhenge has to offer, with residential and dementia care available for up to 66 people.<\/p>\n
To prevent the infection and spread of Covid-19 the care home also has a number of facilities including wide corridors to enable social distancing, specifically designed airflow systems and a private ensuite wetroom for every resident.<\/p>\n
Staff will be tested for Covid-19 weekly and residents monthly.<\/strong><\/p>\nClaire Lousteau, general manager of Old Sarum Manor, said: \u201cWe are so pleased to be able to open Old Sarum Manor and to offer families in and around Salisbury a new option in residential care.<\/p>\n
\u201cMany of our new residents will have spent the last seven months shielding so we\u2019re really looking forward to showing them around the home and offering them a safe and stimulating environment where they can socialise and enjoy our wonderful home.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe staff have been here for several months now to complete their training and there is a lovely family atmosphere and positive energy within the team. I\u2019d like to thank them for all their hard work so far and extend the warmest of welcomes to all our new residents.<\/p>\n
\u201cTheir happiness is our number one priority and we will do everything we can to help them lead rewarding and fulfilling lives.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
