County Durham Care Homes Registered Managers Network

Skills for Care will now be facilitating the Durham Care Homes Registered Managers Network, dates for future meetings will be posted when available.

You need to be a registered manager or senior support working in a care home in County Durham to attend these meetings. There are guest speakers, training and information at each session.

"We know that registered managers are critical to the quality of services delivered in care and support settings. Care Quality Commission (CQC) tells us that there is a link between the absence or high turnover of registered managers and poorly rated services. But we also know that it is a tough job and that many registered mangers feel isolated and lack peer support in the role. That's why I am committed to developing strong networks across the country." - Sharon Allen, CEO, Skills for Care

Developing strong networks across the country

A message on behalf of Wendy Adams Locality Manager for Skills for Care.

Skills for Care are refreshing the membership lists for the Durham Care Homes Registered Managers Network, as it is difficult to keep accurate records when people move jobs or organisations. The purpose of the network is to provide peer support and sharing of good practice. The network meets 3-4 times a year and is free to attend. I have created a brief Microsoft forms document so you can indicate if you would like to join the network. You can access this via the the link below. It will only take a couple of minutes to complete. Once everyone has completed the form (it should take less than 2 minutes) we will be sending out details of the network dates for the year.
