Assistant Manager
Jo Clarke
Jo first came to work at Frampton House in March 2007 carrying out general office administration duties and overseeing the Purchase and Sales ledger side of Accounts. I left to go work for my brother’s company in June 2014.
I returned to Frampton House in December 2017 resuming my role as before. A change of circumstances in March 2020 gave me the opportunity to progress to be the Finance Manager dealing with all aspects of the home’s finance. I continue to carry out all the general office administration, maintaining The Homes Guide & Statement of Purpose and keeping Resident’s family members up to date with newsletters. I also assist the Homes Manager with the day to day running of the home and oversee all the maintenance concerns, which involves liaising with Contractors ensuring that the homes upkeep is maintained and compliant with all legislation and regulations with external Auditors which runs in line with CQC and Safeguarding to protect our vulnerable Adults that we support and the employees of Frampton House.
Care Co-ordinator
Donna Miles
Donna joined the Frampton Family in 2020, the day of the Pandemic Lockdown announcement, starting as a part of the Senior Care Assistant team, then progressing to the Care Co-ordinator after 9 months of being at Frampton House.
She has been in the care environment over 16 years, having started as a care assistant with Learning & Physical Disabilities, which involved liaising with Social Workers, Medical Professionals, Physiotherapy teams, Speech & Language Teams, Occupational Therapists, Safeguarding Adults organisations and CQC.
Donna enjoys meeting new people who have become vulnerable and require support, learning about their health needs and listening to their personal experiences of growing up in life.
She will then formulate a personalised care plan which promotes their independence, dignity, and equality, to ensure that the individual's care is paramount and is fulfilled by the care team of Frampton House.
Activities Co Ordinator
Lynsey Reilly
Lynsey believes that Mental and emotional well-being: Engaging in meaningful activities helps residents maintain a sense of purpose, identity, and self-worth. It promotes mental stimulation, reduces boredom, and enhances cognitive abilities. Meaningful activities can boost mood, reduce anxiety and depression, and improve overall emotional well-being. Social interaction: Participating in meaningful activities encourages socialization and fosters connections among residents. It provides opportunities for engagement, conversation, and companionship, which can combat feelings of loneliness and isolation. Many of our activities involve physical movement and exercise, which are vital for maintaining physical health and mobility. Engaging in meaningful activities can help maintain and improve cognitive functions. Which can enhance memory, attention, problem-solving skills, and creativity. Meaningful activities enhance the overall quality of life for residents in care homes.

Meaningful activities contribute to a positive and enriching environment that supports residents' emotional, social, and physical well-being.
