Beaconsfield Heights Care Home - Avery Collection

I began my career in care straight out of education, and have been dedicated to supporting people ever since. Over the years, I have gained experience across a wide range of care settings, including residential care homes, domiciliary care, and sheltered housing. This has given me a broad understanding of the different needs of individuals and the importance of providing compassionate, person-centred care.

Since becoming a Care Home Manager in 2018, I have had the privilege of leading both small and large care homes. My focus has always been on creating a positive, supportive environment where residents can enjoy the best possible quality of life and where staff feel valued, empowered, and supported to deliver outstanding care. Read less

After working as a Pharmacy Technician for 10 years, I decided to follow my heart and move into the care sector. Joining the home as a Care Assistant in 2019, I have been able to develop my career, becoming a Senior Carer and Wellness Co-ordinator, and at the beginning of 2024, I was delighted to be offered the position of Residential Care Manager.

Working alongside my team of incredible carers, we strive to deliver exceptional person-centred care to every resident every day. A busy, varied and hugely rewarding position which I feel privileged to hold. Read less

My career in care began when I was 21 years old, and it has been my passion ever since. At 24, I became a mum to my daughter and returned to work when she was just three months old, balancing family life with a career I truly love.

I started as a care assistant and remained in my first care home until I was 25. I then moved to a care home in Amersham, where I progressed to the role of Team Leader. After that, I joined a domiciliary care provider as a Senior Carer and worked my way up to Deputy Manager. Following 15 rewarding years in domiciliary care, I returned to residential care as a Deputy Manager.

Throughout my career, I have worked my way up from care assistant to deputy management, gaining valuable experience across both residential and domiciliary care settings. Today, I am proud to be Dementia Care Manager for Beaconsfield Heights.

Caring for others has always been more than just a job for me; it's a vocation. I continue to enjoy making a positive difference to people's lives every day, and I embrace the challenges and rewards that come with providing high-quality, person-centred care. Read less

I am very proud to be part of the team here at Beaconsfield. We always ensure that we deliver five-star service in every department; this was particularly highlighted throughout the pandemic as we recognised it was such a difficult time for residents, families and the staff.

The team spent a lot of time reassuring residents and kept them mentally and physically stimulated, and of course, our residents' safety was and is still the top priority. Our Concierge team run evening activities such as Cheese & Wine nights, Bingo and Quizzes, which our residents love! I work closely with residents and their families to ensure that all enjoy dining experiences and that each resident has a nutritional meal plan to suit their needs. Read less

I have worked in administrative and support roles for over 25 years across both the private and public sectors, and I love being part of busy, varied environments where every day is different. I especially enjoy working as part of a team where everyone supports one another and, most importantly, the people in our care.

At Beaconsfield Heights, my role is to support our residents and their families throughout their journey with us, while also supporting our wonderful staff team. I want everyone to feel welcomed, listened to and cared for.

Care has always been close to my heart. I spent much of my childhood at the care home where my mum worked, and more recently, my own nan moved into a dementia care home. I understand how emotional and daunting that transition can be for families and the residents themselves. I feel very proud to be part of the friendly and caring team at Beaconsfield Heights, where everyone works together to make our residents and their families feel truly at home. Read less

I have recently joined Avery Healthcare because I wanted to combine my background in sales with the opportunity to make a genuine positive difference to people beginning their care journey.

At Beaconsfield Heights, I’m looking forward to providing reassurance and support alongside our warm and dedicated team, who are committed to creating a welcoming and positive environment for everyone. Read less

I joined the Beaconsfield Heights team as an Activities Assistant, where I developed a strong passion for enhancing the daily lives of our residents through engaging and meaningful activities. I am now delighted to have been promoted to the position of Activities Manager. As Activities Manager, I am driven to provide all of our residents with a person-centred approach to their day, taking time to get to know every resident, who they are, what is important to them and enabling us to offer tailored, enjoyable and purposeful activities. I am supported by a wonderful team, who share my passion and form genuine and caring relationships with all of our residents and their families and friends. Read less

As Maintenance Manager at Beaconsfield Heights, I am responsible for ensuring our home remains safe, well-maintained, and comfortable for our residents, visitors, and colleagues. With a background as a telecommunications engineer, I bring strong technical knowledge, excellent problem-solving skills, and a methodical approach to every aspect of building maintenance.

I am a hands-on person with a wide range of practical DIY and maintenance skills, and I take pride in completing every job to a high standard. Being organised and proactive allows me to keep on top of planned maintenance while responding quickly to any issues that arise.
