Residents and staff at Villa Adastra were pleased to have received their Covid vaccinations, which were administered over the course of two days in January.
Head of Care, Sharon Bacon, said: “Mister Wilson and his team were brilliant, and it was a smooth operation.” Resident, Reg Bond was very excited, and said, ‘I am pleased to be doing my bit to hopefully help everyone get back to some kind of normal life in the future.’
The staff too were very excited about getting their vaccines. “I am so proud of all the staff at Villa Adastra for keeping all the residents safe during this pandemic,” says Sharon, “and I know Christine, our Administration Manager will join me in thanking everyone involved. We’ve remained Covid-free, and that has been down to the dedication and hard work of the whole team, who have followed the rules, and often sacrificed their own families, to help keep the residents safe.”
Sharon adds: “For the past ten months, we have not only been carers, but entertainment, friends, and family to the residents. We have hugged them when they have felt upset or scared and held their hands. We have also had lots of fun and laughter.”
