We are writing to wish you all a happy Christmas and New year. To end the year on a positive note, please see below some of the achievements during Management of Rebecca Homes Ltd requested an infection control audit of the home. This was carried out by Staffordshire and Stoke on Trent NHS partnership trust. Two audits were carried out one in February and the second in May. An audit was requested the same as previous years to ensure that the company is meeting standards and adhering to any new legislation. Following the audit during February adjustments were made to try to meet all the recommendations requested. In May 2016, a score of 93 per cent was achieved. A great amount of time and effort was spent making improvements throughout March and April. In the process of these improvements the main bathroom within the house was completely altered with new fittings and decoration. Please see photo below.
