Our compassionate, experienced carers are adept at recognising signs of emotional distress and providing valuable support through one-on-one counselling.

Permanent care teams in every home

No Agency Staff – residents see the same friendly faces daily.
Each of our care homes has a dedicated, permanent care team that residents can get to know and rely on.

We work closely with our residents to build trusting relationships that help them feel comfortable, safe and supported in our care.
Each member of staff undergoes a thorough screening process.
All Medicrest staff members undergo a thorough screening process, including an enhanced Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) check and detailed professional and character references. New employees complete a three-month probation period and receive bi-monthly clinical supervision. Long-standing staff receive annual performance appraisals, but the most valuable feedback comes directly from our residents and their families.
