Training

Our commitment to on-going training for Peregrine House staff is endorsed by our Investors in People Gold Award and the award of the ‘three star’ and ‘Excellent’ Awards from the CQC at successive inspections.

A wide variety of training methods are employed, including everything from traditional classroom teaching, on-line training, NVQs and on-the-job mentoring.

The directors and managers enjoy feedback from staff returning from external recurrent training and hearing that they were able to confidently tell the tutors the answers to their questions.

Peregrine House invests considerable time, effort and money into training as it is seen as one of the best ways of ensuring that the residents experience a dignified and enjoyable lifestyle whilst residing with us.

As well as some staff who have progressed from entry level to management over the years we have also attracted people of high calibre to enjoy a new vocation – including a head teacher who’s mother was a resident here and was inspired to jon us as part of the care and support team.
