Hi, I’m Maxine, and I am the Registered Manager at Ravensworth. I began my career in care here at Ravensworth in 2003, starting as a Care Assistant.
Over the years, I progressed through a number of roles within the home, gaining valuable experience and developing a strong passion for delivering high-quality care. In 2006, I was appointed as the Registered Manager and have proudly led the home ever since.
During that time, I have seen many positive changes within both the home and the wider care sector, including Ravensworth becoming part of the Oak Tree Care Group family in 2013. Throughout these changes, my focus has always remained the same – ensuring residents receive compassionate, respectful and person-centred care in a safe and supportive environment.
Ravensworth is incredibly special to me and has been a part of my life for a long time, and I feel very much that it is my second home. I believe strongly in creating a warm, family-oriented atmosphere where residents feel comfortable, valued and well cared for. The residents here mean a great deal to me, and I very much see them as my extended family.
I am proud to work alongside a dedicated team that shares the same commitment to providing high-quality care and creating a welcoming environment for residents and their loved ones.
I always encourage families to visit the home, meet the team and experience the friendly and supportive atmosphere at Ravensworth for themselves.
