Gnoll Nursing Home

Mrs Nargis Sardar is the Co-Owner and Director of Serenity Homes Ltd, the company that owns Gnoll Nursing Home. She has served as the Responsible Individual since 2019, taking over the role from her partner, Mr William Sardar.

Both Nargis and William are retired nurses who dedicated many years of service to the NHS before purchasing Gnoll Nursing Home in 2005. Originally from Pakistan, Nargis trained and qualified as a nurse before joining her husband in Saudi Arabia, where they spent several years providing medical aid to Bedouin communities in remote desert regions. During this time, Nargis also worked as a midwife, proudly delivering countless babies and serving the Bedouin community for over a decade.

Nargis and her family moved to the United Kingdom over 30 years ago, where she continued her commitment to healthcare as a Health Visitor within the NHS, a role she recalls with great pride and affection.

Known for her passion, motivation, and high standards, Nargis leads by example, holding both herself and her team accountable for delivering exceptional care. She remains approachable and deeply involved, always available to residents, families, and staff alike.

As she prepares to step down from her role as Responsible Individual this year, Nargis will be passing the responsibility to her daughter, Elaine Sardar-Dean, while continuing to support the organisation in an advisory capacity.

Her wealth of experience, compassion, and unwavering dedication continue to inspire those around her, and the Gnoll Nursing Home team is proud and fortunate to have such a strong and respected matriarch guiding their journey.

Gabriela has been part of Gnoll Nursing Home since 2022 and is recognised as a kind, compassionate, and dedicated leader. A qualified nurse by profession, she also serves as the clinical lead for the home, ensuring the highest standards of care are consistently maintained.

Originally from Romania, Gabriela completed her nursing education there before embarking on a journey to explore the world. She spent 20 years working in Libya before relocating to the United Kingdom, where she now lives in Swansea with her partner.

Gabriela is a conscientious and hands-on manager who believes in leading by example and fostering a culture of excellence and respect. She personally conducts all new resident assessments, providing families with the opportunity to ask questions and ensuring every new arrival feels welcomed and supported from the very beginning.

Since joining Gnoll Nursing Home, Gabriela has brought stability, experience, and strong clinical leadership to the service. Her dedication and professionalism have made her an invaluable part of the team, and the home is proud to have her at the helm.

Mr Kashif Tariq joined the Gnoll Nursing Home family in 2022 and has since become an integral part of the management team, working closely with Home Manager Gabriela to create a strong, proactive, and supportive leadership partnership.

Kashif brings with him enthusiasm, dedication, and a relentless drive for improvement. Known for his hands-on approach and positive attitude, he is always willing to go the extra mile to support residents, families, and colleagues alike.

Originally from Pakistan, Kashif relocated to the United Kingdom in 2022 when his wife was offered sponsorship as a Senior Carer. Before joining Gnoll Nursing Home, he built an impressive career as a Biomedical Officer, working for over 20 years in some of Pakistan’s leading research hospitals.

At Gnoll Nursing Home, Kashif’s can-do attitude and thirst for knowledge have made him a valued and respected member of the team. He is committed to continuous learning and improvement, ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of the home.

Those who join Gnoll Nursing Home will find in Kashif not only a highly capable administrator but also a reliable ally and source of support within the team.
