Barchester Ashby House Care Home

Hello, I’m Julie, Operations Manager her at Ashby House Care Home. Welcome to our Website!

I joined Barchester in 2024 bringing over 40 years’ experience within health and social care. I have undertaken multiple roles throughout my career, working with local authorities, large corporate organisations and small private care providers – but one thing remains, my passion to lead teams to deliver the highest quality of care.

To achieve outstanding care starts with outstanding people, I believe in my team and support them with enhancing their skills and abilities through training and development. I strive to create a nurturing and supportive environment where Residents and staff can flourish together in an inclusive and caring community.

Outside of work I keep busy spending time with my children and five grandchildren. I enjoy playing and watching tennis and getting out in the fresh air walking my two dogs.

We look forward to welcoming you to Ashby House!

Hello, I'm Diana, and I am a Senior Registered Nurse at Ashby House. I am responsible for the Day Care Team on my nursing unit.

I graduated from my nursing career in 1998 in Romania as a General Nurse, then moved to the UK in 2003 and have worked in care homes since then.

In 2011, I graduated with NVQ Level 4 in Leadership & Management and further developed my skills in 2013 when I received certification for End-of-Life Care.

I started working as a Senior Registered Nurse at Ashby House Care Home in 2017. I am very passionate about my work and love to look after the residents and relatives that come to our home, and I like to be supportive of all my work colleagues.

When I am away from work, I love to travel and spend time with family and friends.

Hello, my name is Victory, I am a qualified nurse, and I am passionate about providing quality care at excellent standards for residents. I have been working for Barchester Healthcare since June 2022.

The team at Ashby is one of the best I have worked with, and I am grateful for the love and support I receive from the management and colleagues in my job role.

Before June 2022, I worked as a nurse in my home country for some years, serving as a registered nurse, registered midwife, and West African licensed public health nurse. I hold a bachelor's degree in nursing, and my passion for learning drives me to continually update my knowledge and research.

I have a passion and a call to care for the elderly, and I feel fulfilled doing my job. I am committed to delivering person-centred care for each resident and reassuring their relatives. It is also a pleasure supporting my colleagues and using my strengths to enhance the lives of all we care for.

Hello, my name is Geanina, and I have been a Senior Carer at the lovely Ashby House since 2021.

I have worked in health and social care for most of my career and could not imagine doing anything else - I know I was born to do this job.

Hello, I'm Carol and I joined the Ashby House team in 2004 as a Housekeeping Assistant.

It is really important that I keep the home clean to keep it looking nice and minimise infection risks. It is also important that Ashby House is tidy, attractive and well organised so residents feel comfortable and relaxed.

I get to know every resident, to understand how they like their room, their clothes and their personal belongings to be arranged. I enjoy my morning chats, getting to know residents as I clean their rooms.
