Celebrating Our Housekeeping Team

Residents at Southerndown care home in Chipping Norton, run by Barchester Healthcare, are celebrating Housekeeping Week, which takes place from September 12-18. Residents wanted to thank all the wonderful housekeeping staff at the home, whose hard work and dedication make a real difference to the lives of those living there.

Housekeeping Week is an annual event held every year during the second week in September. The week is dedicated to recognising the efforts of hard-working housekeeping staff around the world.

Throughout the week residents and staff have reminisced about how housekeeping has changed during their lifetime, our residents talked about when they first got domestic appliances such as washing machines and vacuum cleaners, and how their lives were changed by advances in technology over the years.

Carole King, our Resident Ambassador loves to support the housekeeping team and has taken on the duty of preparing our ground floor restaurant ‘The Mill’ for all its diners. As a key member of the team, Carole joined the housekeeping staff at today’s presentation by Deputy Manager, Rosalynn Forson who gifted them all with chocolates and thank you cards from everyone at Southerndown.

Lorraine Ball, General Manager said: “It is so wonderful to be able to celebrate Housekeeping Week and thank our fantastic staff for all that they do to keep our home clean and safe for our residents, staff and visitors alike.” Thank you team from all at Southerndown!
