We are delighted that Linden House Care Home, situated in Epsom, has been honoured with the esteemed Gold Standard Framework (GSF) accreditation. Such a recognition at a national level emphasises our commitment to delivering top-notch care for individuals nearing life’s end.
The GSF signifies the collaborative efforts of care homes with local GPs, primary healthcare teams, and niche specialists. This ensures our residents experience seamless care in their final months, weeks, and even days.
For over a quarter of a century, GSF has been the leading training institution for frontline personnel delivering end of life care. As an evidence-driven and hands-on programme, it champions end-of-life care improvements.
Discussing the path to achieving this recognition, Reshma Tupsy, our home manager at Linden House, said, “Navigating through the GSF programme posed its set of challenges, particularly for a residential setting like ours. But in the recent past, we’ve methodically embedded every GSF dimension into the ethos of Linden House. After a detailed documentation process and an assessment in July 2023, our efforts bore fruit. We’re now steadfast in our decision to renew this accreditation triennially, ensuring our care standards are second to none.”
Tony Stein, the CEO of Wren Retirement Living, expressed his sentiments: “A hearty congratulations to everyone at Linden House for this remarkable feat! The intricate procedure Reshma outlined, combined with the team’s steadfast commitment to maintaining these standards, resonates with our mission to provide the zenith of care to our residents in their concluding chapters. The GSF isn’t just a title; it underscores the superior care we endeavour to deliver throughout our facilities.”
Being a beacon in the care home sector, Wren Retirement Living is resolute about ensuring premier care across all its institutions.
