Beth started working at Oaklands in October 2018 as a Nurse. She quickly made her mark; supporting the Manager in dealing with the day-to-day running of the Home, she soon took on the role of Clinical Lead and subsequently Deputy Manager. In Summer 2019, she was promoted to Manager and started the process of applying with the CQC for the position of Registered Manager; following application and interview, this was approved in January 2020.
Beth has over 20 years experience as a Registered General Nurse (Management, ICU, CCU, and surgical wards in various settings) and over 10 years experience in Management. Beth has added a number of improvements and we are positive that these will continue for the benefit of the staff and residents.
Following her degree in Modern Languages (French, German, Russian), Nidhi pursued a career at Deloitte where she qualified as a Chartered Accountant. Nidhi officially joined the family at Oaklands Nursing Home in November 2008, initially focusing on business development, quality assurance, day-to-day administration, contracts, billing and purchasing.
Her knowledge of the Home and its processes were paramount during the Home’s changes in Management in 2018. She worked closely with new Management, Social Services, and the Clinical Commissioning Group to assist in a smooth transition.
Since then, with a stable Management structure in place, Nidhi has been able to concentrate on Governance and oversight of the home, including her favourite part of all - talking to the residents!
After her Master's in Cognitive Science (studying the brain from birth to old age), Vidhi committed her time to Oaklands in September 2006, introducing quality assurance systems to the home, setting out and sharing the business plans and vision, and connecting the Home with the community and volunteers. Her Dutch family took her to the Netherlands in 2011, where she pursued a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics and worked as a Community Dietitian for five years in Amsterdam, specialising in Diabetes, Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Underweight. Vidhi brought this knowledge and her person-centred driven practices back with her on her happy return to Oaklands in 2022. Now, as well as Governance, she enjoys getting involved in clinical discussions at the Home, ensuring Nutrition is brought to the forefront of practices, to optimise health and quality of life.
