It was a pleasure to meet your Mum in the short time she was with us, to also look after your Dad was a joy. I very much enjoyed my chats with him and checking he was alright. I hope to see you all again very soon.

Thank you so much for the positive words of your experience of the home since Mum arrived. Your Mum has one of the most beautifully personalised bedrooms in the home and that is down to you. I knew how important it was for your Mum to have a beautiful room as this also gave you peace of mind. Look forward to seeing you in the home soon.

Thank you so much for your kind words, it is a joy to look after your Mum and she makes me giggle. When there is a sing-song going on in the lounge, your Mum is always part of it and she is not shy in saying how she is feeling. I look forward to seeing you the next time you visit.

Dear Teresa
Thank you very much for your feedback from the 'meet the manager' event we held in the home. It was lovely to meet the relatives of the residents as you are just as important as your loved one. We have already booked the next one in for December and will be sending out the date in due time. My main aim is to always ensure that we meet the needs of the residents, and for them to not be affected by any change of staff within the home. See you at the next meeting.
Kind regards,
Home Manager.

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
We provide permanent and respite accommodation for individuals with residential, nursing, respite, palliative, nursing dementia care and specialist care needs. Our services include complete en-suite and basin with WC rooms. Additionally, we offer privately funded, local authority, and NHS-funded placements.
Our day-to-day can be challenging, but it requires commitment, motivation, and skills to make a vision into reality. I am passionate about delivering person-centred care to our residents and maintaining their independence as much as possible. It is a big adjustment for a resident to leave their own house and be in a nursing home, thus, we as a team help them feel welcomed and ensure a homely environment.
The best part of my working day is knowing that I have made a difference in someone's life and have helped them through a difficult situation. Knowing that a resident is satisfied with the care we provide is the greatest achievement for me at the end of the day."
As Clinical Deputy Manager at Sovereign Lodge, I’m a Registered Nurse with a nursing diploma, NMC PIN, and NVQ Level 4/5 in Leadership and Management for Care Services. I take pride in building strong relationships, creating a safe and supportive home, and leading my team to deliver the highest standards of care where residents feel truly valued.
I wished to be part of this growing company and be able to contribute my knowledge and skills, at the same time learning and growing with the company.
Before I came to Healthcare Homes I was an
administrator/receptionist for a different provider.
I think a person needs to be knowledgeable or must be willing to learn. You must be people orientated, know how to deal with different kinds of people in a friendly but professional manner. Must be well organised and know how to manage time. Stay calm.
The favourite part of my working day is being able to help out with the team. Completing tasks and being ready to accept more. Meeting new people.
The biggest professional challenge in my current role was moving from a corporate company where I had been for 5 years to a smaller but growing company. Luckily enough, after a few weeks of intensive training, I was able to adapt and settle quickly into my new home. Thanks to the most friendly and accommodating staff/residents and relatives of Sovereign Lodge and those at our operations office Apex.
My biggest career highlight to date? I am quite happy to see the progression of my career over the span of six years.
Qualities that make me stand out are;
A good home manager must have good leadership and at the same time be caring and have a passionate heart. Time management is also very important.
My interests outside of work are spending time with my little boy, playing in the sand or swimming together. I also like watching movies and shopping.
I look forward to working with my colleagues who are a bunch of happy and energetic people. Meeting and greeting residents and relatives. Being productive at work – being able to accomplish all tasks given
Before joining Healthcare Homes I was an
Assistant Facilities Manager.
To be good in my role I need a general understanding of what makes a building work.
My interests outside of work include music and modern history.
Sovereign Lodge has a very good name in the local community and I wished to have a more fulfilling job role
Before joining Healthcare Homes I was a landlady at a local public house. I had always worked in the service industry.
To be good in my role I need to be bubbly, outgoing, motivated and confident. Being able to work as part of a team or take a lead role if necessary. Energetic, enthusiastic and loving the job of making people happy.
The favourite part of my working day is putting a smile on people’s faces and making a difference. Giving residents something to look forward to.
My biggest professional challenge in my current role is being diverse in the role and giving a wide variety in the activity schedule; keeping it fresh and exciting. I am undertaking a Health Care Practitioner trainee role which I am very excited about and looking forward to the outcome.
Although there have been many highlights during my time here, none more important than walking in to the lounge areas and seeing smiling, happy residents
The qualities I have to make me stand out are good leadership qualities, being able to communicate freely with staff. Good problem solving skills
Outside of work I like spending time with my family, dining out, walking and enjoying the fresh air with loved ones, watching movies and shopping
The relationships I have formed with my colleagues and residents; it’s not just a job to me. I can honestly say in my time working here, this is my family as well as my friends
I've worked here for 8 year and I love where I work. The home is always busy but fun, and I enjoy being part of the team. My constant happiness helps put smiles on the residents' faces.
