Hi I’m Charlotte, I am the Deputy Manager and Clinical Lead for Vecta House. I am so happy to be working with a rated good team who really deserve outstanding in every way!

My aspirations are to maintain a very high level of well-led safe care for our residents who follow all our regulatory guidelines to the T.

I am always seeking to improve the service we provide and look at why we work the way we do.

I began my care journey over ten years ago as a healthcare assistant and have always wanted to advocate and do more for people. This led me to complete my registered nurse training for which I achieved an honours.

I love the feeling I get when we receive positive feedback, it helps me realise why we do what we do and the true benefit of helping people in a person-centred way.

Hello, my name is Chris, and I have been working at Vecta since June 2018.

Before joining Vecta, I spent 10 years as the Head Chef at another care home, working closely with people living with dementia.

It is an age-old saying that ‘home is where the heart is', and to me, the heart of all homes should be the kitchen. The pattern of our life revolves around food and drink; it sustains, nurtures and brings us together as family, and friends. It marks times of celebration and significant events, reminding us of what is important in our life.
I enjoy spending time with residents and learning about their individual likes, dislikes and needs. This is their home and I try to create menus that respect this and involve them in this process as much as possible by recreating meals that they have come to love and food that they cherish.

Quality ingredients and presentation are essential; if something is to have value it should look good and reflect the care that has gone into its making.
