Hi, my name is Subin, and I am the General Manager here at Atfield House.
I transferred here from another Barchester Healthcare care home in Chippenham.
I joined Barchester in 2019 and I have been the General Manager of Atfield House Nursing Home since 2022, I am committed to ensuring the residents receive the very highest standard of care, and I am passionate about developing and leading my team in a way in which they are empowered to use their skills and knowledge for the wellbeing of those we support. I am so proud to receive the CQC inspection report with one outstanding rating under a responsive domain. My favourite part of the job is meeting all our residents and finding out about their life and backgrounds -I have met some really interesting people throughout my career and I think life history plays such a vital part in everyone’s care. My vision for Atfield House is to create a “ home away from home environment for our residents and be one big happy family.

I have over 14 years of experience in the care sector and I have recently completed my Step up programme with Warwick University. I really enjoy the daily challenges, team recruitment and always pushing and exceeding performance where I can. I also enjoy adding value, enhancing care and giving elder life purpose to enable residents to engage in a fulfilled life. lam passionate about delivering the levels and standards of care that I would expect for my own parents. My biggest achievement is Making a difference in people's lives throughout my career.

Every day is an achievement, delivering and pushing the levels of care to exceed the expectations of Barchester and myself.

My name is Prachi, and I am proud to be the Deputy Manager at Atfield House. With over 14 years of experience in the care sector, I believe that every individual deserves to be seen, heard, and valued for who they are. This belief is at the heart of the care I provide every day.

Throughout my career, I have dedicated myself to offering compassionate, person-centred support. I hold a European Certification in Essential Palliative Care, founded and coordinated by Princess Alice Hospice, which has strengthened my ability to support residents and their families with dignity, understanding, and sensitivity during some of life’s most challenging times.

In my current role, I strive to create a warm, supportive environment where residents feel safe, respected, and truly at home. For me, caring for others is not just a profession; it is a privilege that I am honoured to uphold every day.
