Meet The Manager
Sharon Hodkin is Registered Manager at Chichester Hall Care Home.
An experienced and dedicated Care Home Manager with a proven track record of leading high-performing teams and delivering outstanding standards of person-centred care. Passionate about creating safe, welcoming environments where residents are treated with dignity, respect, and compassion, while ensuring their individual needs and preferences remain at the heart of everything.
Chichester Hall is a Cumbrian care home that has up to twenty admission places for elderly care purposes, including for individuals with mental health issues or mild dementia.
The home has an excellent inspection record with regulatory bodies, thanks to a team of professional carers who strive to maintain a relaxing and homely environment, while adhering to modern care standards.

Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.
| What we're doing to keep residents & visitors safe | ||
|---|---|---|
|
In our home, we take a holistic approach to ensure the safety of both our staff and residents. We prioritise both their emotional and physical well-being. Our dedicated staff team strictly adheres to hygiene protocols and follows infection control guidelines. They are also trained in various areas of safety, such as fall and accident prevention, safeguarding, and medication management. In order to ensure that we consistently deliver high-quality care and meet the needs of our residents, we utilise a dependency tool. This tool allows us to accurately measure the needs of each person and ensure that we maintain appropriate staffing levels to provide the right care at the right time. Additionally, we regularly conduct safety audits to ensure that best practices are fully embedded and sustained. |

| Connectivity for resident testing, monitoring & communications |

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.
