Woodlands Residential Care Home

I am Alison Lee the Proprietor of Woodlands & Hill Brow Ltd. I am a nurse with a degree in Nursing and a Diploma in Elderly Care. I left the NHS where I was Ward Manager of an elderly care unit at the Royal Free Hospital when I assumed control of Woodlands & Hill Brow Ltd following my mother's retirement in 1998.

I am immensely proud of the standards of care we achieve and the family ethos and feel which runs through the heart of our homes.

Hello, my name is Laura Cooper, I have worked for the Lee family for over 8 years and I am extremely proud to be the General Manager for Woodlands and Hill Brow’s four homes. With over 20 years of previous Leadership and HR experience behind me, I work with the homes daily to promote and ensure that the happiness of our residents and all our permanent staff members remains at the heart of all we do.

My name is Debbie Choularton and I am the Home Manager for Woodlands. I joined the company in 2000 and am very glad to work in such a wonderfully caring environment.

Our residents are so lovely and I and the rest of the staff have become so attached to them that we think of them as our friends and family. I am lucky to have a fantastic team under me who help make the home such a warm and friendly place that it is a home from home for us too.

My name is Vicki, I love my role at Woodlands. I have worked in the care industry since I was fifteen years old. I have worked in a variety of care settings such as residential, nursing, learning disabilities and mental health as well as domiciliary care. My passion is in elderly care, everyone is unique and have an interesting story to tell. Throughout my time I have gained a number of qualification’s such as a level 2,3,4 NVQ and a level 5 Diploma in Health & Social Care and management. I am proud to work for a company that puts the residents at the forefront of everything they do.

My role is incredibly rewarding. I am part of a massive life changing decision that is incredibly personal and needs to be made with confidence. I think of myself as a guide for families and individuals during this new chapter of their life.

I help support with any questions and concerns but what I love most is every day I get to meet new people, hear their life stories and build great relationships with them and their families. Once they have moved in it is a joy to watch our residents thrive and enjoy life, loved ones too.

I take great joy in providing attentive care to our wonderful residents, ensuring their happiness and comfort is always prioritized. Working for Woodlands and Hill Brow is truly special to me because they genuinely care about their team's well-being and are committed to our personal and collective growth.

I'm Trixie, and I work as a Chef at Woodlands. I absolutely love being part of such a caring company that values and supports its employees. The management team is incredibly supportive and always prioritizes the well-being of the residents and staff.

One of the best parts of my job is preparing meals for the residents at Woodlands. I make sure to have individual conversations with each resident to learn about their favourite foods and preferred drinks. It's important to me that they are happy, so I strive to provide them with wholesome, delicious, and nutritious meals that they truly enjoy.
