I joined Care UK in 2018 as a Team Leader. During that time, I developed a real passion for delivering high-quality care and supporting both residents and staff. I later achieved my PIN as a registered nurse, which was an important milestone in my career and allowed me to take on greater clinical responsibilities. Over the years, I progressed into leadership roles, and in 2024 I became Deputy Clinical Manager.
This role helped me strengthen my leadership skills, develop my understanding of operational and financial responsibilities, and gain valuable experience overseeing clinical standards and supporting teams. Through these experiences, I realised that becoming a Home Manager would allow me to make an even greater impact not only on the quality of care residents receive, but also on the culture and development of the whole team within the home.
I started as Home Manager at Riverside Place in February this year, and my first weeks have been very positive. I’ve spent time getting to know the residents, families and the team, which has been incredibly rewarding. The staff are passionate and dedicated, and there is a strong sense of community within the home. My focus so far has been on listening, understanding how the home operates, and working closely with the team to continue building a positive and supportive environment for both residents and colleagues.
What really stands out about Riverside Place is the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The team genuinely cares about the residents and takes pride in making the home feel like a true community. The relationships between residents, families and staff are very strong, and there is a real focus on providing personalised care that respects each resident’s preferences, dignity and independence.
My advice would be to visit the home, meet the team, and spend time experiencing the atmosphere. A good care home should feel welcoming, supportive and safe. It’s also important to ask questions and make sure you feel comfortable with the care being provided. The right home should not only meet clinical needs but also support residents’ wellbeing, independence and quality of life.
