Astley View Care Home in Chorley, Lancashire, celebrated its first anniversary with a special Open Day event for the local community. The day also included a ceremony to recognise the outstanding contributions of its dedicated staff, whose commitment to providing compassionate care has been integral to the Home’s success.
Located off Euxton Lane, Chorley, Astley View has quickly become a key part of the local community, offering personalised care for elderly residents with a focus on residential care, dementia support, and respite services. The Open Day welcomed local residents and families to see the purpose-built care home, meet the team, and learn more about the care home’s services and commitment to quality.
Astley View actively collaborates with local schools, promoting intergenerational activities that bring joy and learning opportunities for both residents and children. These partnerships help foster a vibrant, inclusive community within the home, where residents’ well-being is at the heart of everything the care team does.
The care home’s success is also attributed to its strong focus on employee wellness and development. Initiatives like providing wellbeing baskets, Christmas vouchers, and hosting monthly and bi-annual staff awards, as well as a commitment to the Real Living Wage, ensure that staff feel supported and valued.
Home Manager, Christina Durnan, commented: “Opening our doors for the Open Day and staff awards ceremony is a special occasion for all of us at Astley View. It is a chance to celebrate our first year of service and to recognise the dedication of our staff, as well as the wonderful people and their families we support. We are committed to providing the highest standard of care for our residents and creating a fulfilling workplace for our team members.”
