Q-Club

Q-Club

Welcome to Richard Cox Q Club. Open Monday to Friday from 10am to 3pm, our Royston club has been designed to provide care during the day for older people who are still living in their own home or with family, perhaps with the support of either a professional carer or family and friends.

This service is ideal if you are caring for a loved one but need to take some time off for yourself or just want to know that your loved one is being fully taken care of for the day

Most of our day care centres are attached to one of our care homes which means that many of the facilities available to our full time residents are also available to our day care guests - such as a visit to the hairdresser (booked directly with the centre). 

The team aim to provide a calming yet stimulating and safe environment and organise a wide range of activities for guests to enjoy including arts and crafts sessions, cooking, gardening, board games and more.

Irene Lovelock
Housekeeping Manager
Keeping the team of Housekeepers running as it should is the Housekeeping Manager. Supervising and organising their teams is just part of it as these Managers work alongside them to keep the home clean and inviting. The comfort of residents is the most important thing to our Housekeeping Managers which is why they work so hard to create an environment in which residents can’t help but feel at home. Multi-tasking and communication skills are some of the most important of the Housekeeping Manager’s qualities as they and their team create a home where resident’s dignity is never compromised and independence is always encouraged. Our Housekeeping Managers ensure that all areas of our home are safe, clean, well maintained and presented in a way to create a warm and homely environment. They have an important role in maintaining our infection, prevention and control standards to make sure our residents stay well.
Marc Gothard
Food Service Co-ordinator

The Food Service Co-ordinator is responsible for ensuring the quality of the dining experience of the residents in the home, making sure that meals are varied, nutritious and of a high standard.

Jayne Bursnall
Administrator
The Administrator will focus on the smooth running of the home; in whatever area they may be needed. From greeting visitors to recruiting, the Administrator is present in many aspects of life in the home, even if you don’t always see them! To be successful in the role, our Administrators have to be flexible and calm, able to multi-task and always keen to take on a new challenge. It’s often the Administrator that brings the IT skills to a home, helping them to keep everything organised. Above that though, Administrators are communicators, able to speak confidently and listen closely to everyone from Managers and Care Workers to visitors and residents.

Q Club Manager
