"We're very happy, now that DK is at Sutton house, primarily because we can see that he's very happy there and we're confident that he's being well looked after. He gets a lot more variety and stimulus at Sutton House. It's actually hard to imagine DK being neglected or un happy there "

" I have been working for MGB Care Services Ltd for over 3 years now. I progressed from being a Care Assistant to Manager. I have been given the opportunity to attend various training sessions, to complete NVQ3 and NVQ4 in Leadership and Management and to work alongside very experienced staff team and management. To further develop my skills and understanding of different client groups I have worked at a few homes within MGB Care Services Ltd including Burlington Villa, Ash Villa, Cherry Tree Lodge and Sutton House. I also became a Autism Training Instructor and I enjoy delivering the training.
The part I like the most about my job is making changes to our service user’s life, having the opportunity to watch our service users progressing, becoming more confident, developing their skills and being content on day to day basis.
I appreciate that all members of staff are trained in Person Centred Approaches and Proact Scipr which enables all staff members to understand the philosophy of treating all service users as individuals. The Directors and Senior Management Team are very supportive and are always there when needed"

"The Staff at Ash Villa are very welcoming and the way they interact with the residents is commendable. They enable the residents to live a fuller life as possible. I have been made very welcome and offered maximum support whilst here. I am sad to leave and hope i may return in the future either as bank staff or as a visitor. Thanks to everyone, but a massive thank you to Naden (director) and Manoj (Ashvilla manager)"

" I started working for MGB in 2008 as a driver and care assistant at Greenwood Lodge.
I enjoyed the care side more and I moved to Burlington Villa as a support worker building good relationships with the service users. From there I did many training sessions for example Autism, Aspergers, Epilepsy, First Aid, Role and History of Care and lots more to help me develop my role. In 2010 I moved to Sutton House as a support worker and then was given the chance to become a team leader. Again I received helpful training including Proact Scip, 3 days First Aid Course, Fire Marshall, Advanced Medication, Food Hygiene level 2. I have completed NVQ 2 and 3 in Health and Social Care. I enjoy being a team Leader at Sutton House and building good relationship with all service users. I like organising activities and supporting residents within various outings. I enjoy working at Sutton House as we have a very good structured team and management. The company is also giving support when needed"

" My name is James and I have been living at Sutton House for nearly 2 years. I like Sutton House because is close to bus station and I enjoy trip to Nottingham, Derby and Mansfield. I have my own bus pass.
Staff looks smart and make me feel confident when I am out.
I like going to college and I have completed Shabby Chic Course and Cooking Classes. I keep certificates in my bedroom. I also go To Riley and play snooker there.
I like my key worker Paul who gives me good shave and make sure my bedroom looks nice and tidy. I really like food at Sutton House and I can choose what I want to eat.
I love game room where I can play Wii and Play station. When I want to be on my own I go to my bedroom or to quiet lounge when I watch TV or DVD. I feel safe "
