Kingsmount is a special place. It always seems to be a calm and relaxed atmosphere, despite the challenge which the care team encounter my mum is looked after very well, by kind and supportive carers. Everyone is treated as an individual and given a lot of time and attention. All in all this is a great example of how a care home should operate. Thank you.

Brennan joined GrayAreas Ltd just after the Grays bought their first home back in 2002. He worked his way up through the ranks starting at Mount Olivet and then moving to Kingsmount where he was quickly promoted to Senior Carer. In June 2015, Brennan accepted the post of Deputy Manager and then became the Registered Manager in June 2019.
His dedication, commitment and leadership have seen the home maintain the CQC Good rating and his compassion and warmth shown to residents, relatives and staff alike are a further testament to the quality of care he encourages from all his staff.
Brennan has a level 5 NVQ qualification and maintains an ongoing training schedule in order to keep up to date on various health and care issues.
He is an asset to our team and is available to chat with on our landline number.

Having worked in care since being a teenager, Diane joined Kingsmount as a senior care assistant in 2016. After a few years at Kingsmount, she moved to our sister home, Mount Olivet Nursing Home, continuing in her care assistant role.
Wanting a change from care work but keen to stay in the caring profession, Diane was offered the opportunity to take on the role of activities coordinator at Kingsmount. And she jumped at the chance!
Diane's role is to create and organise various activities to stimulate the residents' physical, mental and emotional well-being at Kingmount. Her work covers a broad remit from coordinating family visits to organising craft activities and spending one-to-one time with the residents.
Originally from Brixham, Diane lives in Paignton, just a short walk from Kingsmount. Outside of work, she is a regular volunteer with St. Johns Ambulance.
