The team at Magna Care Centre take pride in supporting independence and variety. Staff are all dementia trained and understand the importance of meaningful activities. Through a dedicated activities plan generated by two onsite activities coordinators, residents' hobbies and interests are encouraged and supported at the home where possible.
Dining is an important part of the day to day life at Magna Care Centre. The chefs, along with the hospitality team, work hard to offer varied menus whilst promoting a balanced diet.

My husband had been in Magna Care Centre for more than a year when he first went there from Poole hospital his health was very poor, everybody thought that he wouldn't make it but after a month his health had improved a lot because he was looked after by all the kind and friendly nurses, besides...
All the rooms and public areas are very clean and tidy and I can move my husband in the wheelchair around the building with no problem.
In the future, I would recommend my friends to come here if they need care.
The staff and management are very caring and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. The activities ladies work very hard to entertain the residents in the communal lounge.

My wife transferred from a residential care home to The Magna Care Centre one year ago. She is a lot happier now obviously due to the excellent room and surroundings, the friendly care and attention she receives from the nursing, care and activities personnel.

I find this home to be very good. The staff are extremely kind and considerate. Having needed medical care when I first came here (8 years ago) I found this to be first class and am now able to live a nearly normal lifestyle.

With over 17 years at Magna, I lead a dedicated and compassionate team committed to delivering exceptional residential and nursing care. My background in intensive, elderly, and stroke care shapes the person?centred, dignified approach I bring to every aspect of our home.
Having progressed from Registered Nurse to Deputy Manager and now Home Manager, I have a deep understanding of our residents, their families, and the local community. I’m passionate about creating a warm, respectful environment where meaningful social connection enriches daily life. Making even one person’s day better is what motivates me.
Magna is a relaxed, home-from-home setting, and the welcoming atmosphere is a true reflection of the incredible team I’m proud to lead. Their kindness, commitment, and willingness to go the extra mile are at the heart of everything we do.
Outside work, I enjoy spending time with my large family and making memories together.
