From the manager

“I am a registered general nurse with experience in acute cardiac care and learning disabilities. I joined the home in October 2016. I am a diabetes and falls prevention champion. I have proven clinical skills and an advanced knowledge which led to me being promoted. I pride myself on being resident focused and ensuring that all individuals we support are empowered to make choices and participate fully in the running of their home. I enjoy spending time bonding with residents and their families, ensuring their safety, wellbeing and happiness are met. I was very proud to be awarded the Champion of Quality Care award in 2019.”
