I now feel at home at Rose House. I have found all the staff polite and helpful. They have all helped me to get back on my feet after I fell and broke my hip. Lately we seem to be asking what dining room we are in. Change like this leads to confusion and extra fatigue. We also find that we can be waiting for meals which can be 20-30 mins late. I am grateful to the staff who deliver our pills and get me medical advice when needed. I also enjoy being able to have a bath, & do enjoy all the projects which the activities staff provide however, the new timetable is difficult to read (small print. needs colour, need copy put in a person's room. Room signs been changed now only writing, pictures before helped to find rooms & have appreciated trips in the mini bus an essential activity

Thank you for your valued feedback. To reassure dining areas change due to deep cleans being undertaken and carpet cleaning which is inline with Infection Prevention control. Door signs were simplified at the request of other residents finding to much information confusing however will take on board comments made and review in due course.

I visited an old friend of mine who ia staying at rose house on respite, i must say first impressions, wow it looks like a five star hotel, the team at the front of house were so welcoming as unbeknown to myself i visited at meal times but the receptionist guided me to the cafe and offered me a hot drink and biscuits, after he finished his meal my friend took me to his room which was spotless and beautiful, carers popped in to check on him and offered us drinks and snacks, if ever i need round the clock care this is the place to be.

Rose House has the look of a 5* hotel, it is hugely impressive. The staff are committed and very caring. There is a lively atmosphere, residents clearly enjoy each other's company and the activities provided which facilitate this. Our one long standing concern is that in our relative's bedroom there is an unpleasant odour that has not been eliminated and the door to outside hasn't opened as it should for two years. Without these issues I'd give it 100%

Thank you for the kind comments. I will speak to the head housekeeper with regards the odour and the door will be unlocked as requested.

I started my career in care; however, I have nursing experience also and moved into a care team leader role, which I held for 5 years before being supported by some fabulous members of management who have helped me in developing my skills and experience, which took me into a Deputy Manager role. I have now been a Deputy Manager in residential care for the past 10 years and am very passionate about my role. I continue to develop my experience and skills and am currently completing a diploma level with the aim of progressing my career in the future and managing a care home of my own.
I take huge pride in ensuring person-centred care for all residents and supporting the care team in rolling that care out across the home.

With over six years of experience in the care home sector and additional background in home care, I’ve built a career rooted in compassion, dignity, and a deep commitment to improving lives. My journey into care began at a young age, inspired by a personal experience—when my brother’s accident left him paralysed, I witnessed firsthand the transformative power of high-quality, person-centred support.
Since then, I’ve progressed through a variety of roles, including care assistant, activities coordinator, senior carer, unit manager, and now deputy manager. This path has given me a comprehensive understanding of care home life—from hands-on support to team leadership and strategic oversight. I hold a Level 4 Diploma in Adult Care, along with specialist qualifications in medication management and end-of-life care.
For me, care is more than a profession—it’s a vocation. I’m proud to be part of a team that puts people first, and I remain passionate about making a meaningful difference every single day

My career in administration has touched various departments and industries over the past 22 years, having supported company directors in a personal assistant role and worked in human resources. I have experience in supporting different areas of a business and am able to transfer that experience into my role at Rose House and support all areas of the home as required.
I started working for Runwood Homes in August 2023 for one of our sister homes, Liberty House and moved over to Rose House as part of the commissioning team when Rose House first opened. I really enjoy my role working as an administrator and supporting the families and residents in any way that I can.

I’m originally from Glasgow and moved to Doncaster in November 2025. I joined the team here in February 2026 as the Maintenance Operative, where I help keep the home safe, comfortable, and running smoothly for everyone.
Before moving to Doncaster, I worked as a Facilities Manager at a special needs school supporting children with Cerebral Palsy and other brain-related conditions. That role taught me the importance of maintaining a safe, reliable, and supportive environment for people who depend on the place where they live or learn.
I enjoy fixing things, solving problems, and helping wherever I can around the home. It’s important to me that residents feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for in their surroundings.

I have gained over 10 years of valuable experience working in a variety of administrative environments, which has enabled me to develop excellent organisational, communication, customer service, and administrative skills. Throughout my career, I have become highly proficient in managing busy workloads, coordinating schedules, maintaining accurate records, handling confidential information, and providing professional support to colleagues, clients, and visitors. My ability to multitask, prioritise responsibilities, and remain calm under pressure has allowed me to consistently contribute to the smooth and efficient operation of the organisations I have worked for.In my current role at Rose House, I take great pride in being part of a caring, compassionate, and dedicated team that is committed to providing a high standard of support and service. As the first point of contact for residents, families, visitors, and external professionals, I strive to create a warm, welcoming, and professional reception environment. I understand the importance of empathy, patience, and effective communication when supporting residents and their loved ones, particularly during challenging times.
I find it incredibly rewarding to assist residents and their families, ensuring they feel valued, respected, and supported. Alongside my reception duties, I play an important role in maintaining the smooth day-to-day running of the home by managing enquiries, coordinating appointments, supporting administrative processes, and liaising with various departments. I am passionate about delivering excellent customer service and take satisfaction in contributing to a positive experience for everyone who enters Rose House.
