Hi Nicola
I am a warden and I do not live in at all. I am the first warden to not live in for over 300 years(!) however, I have been in post for 3 years now and, after some initial worries, the ladies (there are 25 cottages) are fully on board with it.
We do have an emergency call system which I have set up so that I am informed if one of them has pressed their buzzer so I have the option to attend if I feel it is necessary e.g. nearest relatives are away on holiday and there is a 3-4 hour delay for an ambulance!
I certainly wouldn’t see a problem in your warden being at home during the week!
