The aim of the visit was to gain insight into a day in the life of a resident, and included three meals and snacks, wellbeing activities and an overnight stay in the care home.
Neel Radia, chair of the NACC, said: “The NACC and its executive board are keen to see firsthand the wonderful work our members are doing in the community.
“For the executive board to experience directly what it feels like to be a resident in care setting is an invaluable opportunity, especially for those who are not regularly in a day-to-day care setting themselves. The menu and overall experience including sleeping in the care home has been incredible. Thank you to the team at Danforth Care for the warm welcome and hospitality.”
The Arkall Manor team were keen to demonstrate the facilities that their residents will soon be enjoying. It offers spacious en-suite rooms, accessible gardens and tastefully decorated communal rooms.
Max Andrews from Arkall Manor added: “The doors will soon be opening to residents at Arkall Manor and so we were delighted to have welcomed the NACC board to our new facility. We wanted to demonstrate that we can provide luxury living whilst still maintaining a family feel to the environment.”
