New Colour Coded Uniforms Fully In Place
We have now managed to buy new uniforms for all the staff. I have been involved with running the home for over twenty years, and in the olden days Care Assistants were nearly all women, and we had pink uniforms. We are glad to say that we now employ plenty of men as Carer’s, which is good for everyone, especially some of our male clients. The problem is that has led to a rather fractured uniform policy, with all different coloured uniforms for men and women, which is potentially confusing for everyone. We hope this will help visitors and residents more easily identify different job roles within the home. We believe this will be particularly helpful for anybody visiting the home for the first time, or for anyone who suffers with memory problems. The new colour code is the same for polo shirts and tunics and is;
Navy Blue : Deputy Manager
Hospital/Mid Blue: Senior on duty
Light Blue: Care Assistant
Grey: Domestic Cleaner
