Hello, my name is Emmanuel, and I am proud to serve as the Deputy Manager here at Craigieknowes. I joined the team in May 2023, bringing with me my experience as a Registered Nurse, a role I qualified for in 2017. Since entering the private care sector in 2019, I have been deeply committed to providing compassionate, person-centred care, a dedication that led to my promotion to Deputy Manager in 2020.
I am passionate about making older age life meaningful, joyful, and worth living for every resident. Each day, I work closely with our nursing and care teams, offering guidance, support, and encouragement to ensure we deliver the highest standard of care.
I am always open to whether you have a question, need support, or simply want a friendly chat. For me, creating a warm and supportive environment is not just part of my job; it is just me being Emmanuel.
