Meet The Manager
Nikki Pile is Manager at Russettings Care Home.
Please see the latest Russettings update from Nikki below:
Dear Relatives and Friends
Although as a country we’re in a better position than we were in March last year, our home remains extremely vigilant. Given that case numbers are set to rise as society re-opens, this is going to become increasingly important, despite the success of the vaccine rollout.
As we navigate this new phase of the pandemic, we are committed to preserving robust infection control measures. All our eligible residents and team members are also vaccinated, which will reduce the risk of severe illness. Staff members and visitors will continue to wear face masks within the home.
I would like to bring back relative/resident meetings and reviews in August and possibly a garden party so will keep you posted on this.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact either Vanessa or me.
Kind Regards
Nikki
