Natalie VellaJob Title Home ManagerJoined 2025

Natalie has been a qualified nurse for 23 years, although she started in Healthcare 31 years ago.

She has a passion for Frailty and End of Life care

Natalie had worked in care homes for over 8 years in senior roles, and uses the ethos that " She works in her residents' home, they do not live in her place of work".

Natalie understands that moving into a care home can be difficult, as this is your last piece of independence, but she believes that when residents move in, their care must be tailored to them and person-centred. She encourages residents to maintain as much independence as they can. Read less
