Barchester Prestbury Beaumont Care Community

Hi, I'm Sophie, and I have been a nurse for 15 years with a varied background including accident and emergency, practice nursing and quality improvement roles.

I have always had a passion for elderly care, and I always knew that I would return to a role where I was able to look after this wonderful generation of people.

I aim to ensure that every resident lives a happy, fulfilled and enriched life that is tailored to their needs and wishes. I am delighted to be appointed as the General Manager at Prestbury Beaumont.

I am an RGN and hold a degree in social care, and my chosen area in the field of nursing is the care of older people.

My journey at Prestbury Beaumont started in 2002, when I worked as a Care Assistant. I then became a Nurse and was eventually promoted to Head of Care and finally Deputy Manager.

My determination to ensure that the quality of care is of the highest standard has driven me to always find ways to further myself in my career in order to be in a position in which I can make a difference to the lives of those I support.

Accordingly, I feel very passionate and responsible for the standard of care that we provide here at Prestbury Beaumont. It is our job to ensure that residents receive the highest level of support whilst feeling valued, understood and respected at all times.

I also work closely with the General Manager to ensure that every task is completed for the efficient running of the home.

As part of the team, I also help create the amazing homely atmosphere as soon as you enter the home, and I look forward to welcoming you to Prestbury Beaumont.

Hi, my name is Rebecca O’Donnell. I am Head of Activities for Prestbury Beaumont. I have only been here for a short time and in that time, I have worked in various departments, including care, laundry and housekeeping.

I am from the Cheshire area. I have been with my partner for nearly 20 years. We have four daughters, 1 grandson, dogs and granddogs and a horse we all adore. I like to travel and see new places, and I am looking forward to working here for a long time and furthering my skills.
