Meet The Manager
Michelle Middleton-Price is Registered Manager at Bluebell View.
As a Registered Nurse, Michelle has gained a wealth of experience in providing care and nursing support to elderly people, to enrich their lives. She is a knowledgeable and dedicated leader who is passionate about delivering the highest standards in care and quality of life for residents.
For me, kind care is caring from your heart, and hoping that you have cared for residents in the same way that you would like your loved ones to be cared for. Care to me, means going that extra mile and ensuring that all needs are supported.
Michelle closely shares HC-One’s vision in aiming to provide the kindest care for each and every resident. She extends this caring approach to her colleagues and works closely with them to deliver care and support to residents in a way that they gain the most benefit, in a warm and welcoming home.

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 | ||
|---|---|---|
|
The safety and wellbeing of our residents is our priority; we've taken significant steps to ensure this. We've developed a robust operational quality management system that defines the way that we work, which is monitored by a Clinical Governance Group and inspected by our own team in Service Quality Inspectors. All homes have an infection control champion. Through a range of feedback mechanisms, we constantly monitor the quality of our services by actively encouraging confidential and open compliments, complaints or concerns from residents, colleagues, relatives and health and social Care professionals; this valuable feedback helps us to evolve our services and shape the way that we work. |
||
| Infection Control Initiatives in place | ||
|---|---|---|
 |
Independent Assessments | We have been independently assessed in our approach to infection control. |
|
Infection Control Training | Our staff are trained to use measures which prevent and control infections. |
|
Virus Testing | We are testing for viral infection when symptoms present within our care setting. |
| 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.
