Signature at Farnham Common

My career in care started in 2013, it has been a privilege that most of my journey has been with Signature Care Homes. During this time, I gained and developed my skills as a Residential Care Manager, working in different Signature homes and I am now delighted to move into the role of General Manager at Farnham Common. I am passionate about delivering exceptional care to our residents, ensuring our values are promoted by all our staff members, so we maintain excellent standards in all our day-to-day activities. By being a positive role model within the Home, I hope to share this passion, working alongside, supporting my team, and building caring relationships with all our residents and respective families.

At Farnham Common, we have a real understanding of how important it is to demonstrate passion and empathy when supporting our residents with their care needs, naturally tailoring our approach each time to reflect their individuality.

As a General Manager, I am motivated to support all in enhancing our service, making our Home truly remarkable.

I’ve been working in the healthcare industry for 15 years now. I’m a licensed nurse in both the United Kingdom and the Philippines. My journey in nursing began in 2003 in the Philippines. I successfully earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing and passed the nursing licensing exam, which officially launched my healthcare career. My passion for nursing and healthcare and my desire to continue my education led me to move to the UK to pursue my dream of becoming a globally competitive nurse. I have had diverse and enriching experiences working in various roles in hospitals and care homes, which have helped me develop my expertise in both clinical practice and management. I am thrilled to have been offered the position of Clinical Services Manager at Signature Farnham Common. To me, this role is more than just a job: it is an opportunity to be a part of an organisation that genuinely cares about its residents, their loved ones and the team members. I am eagerly looking forward to continuing my journey of professional growth and learning with this incredible team, as I remain dedicated to ensuring the wellbeing of the residents.

I have worked in residential care supporting and guiding loved ones through their care journey since 2018. It is a role I absolutely love and am excited have joined Signature at Farnham Common, a wonderful home offering a luxurious environment for residents, where they are supported by a compassionate and caring team, committed to providing each resident with a sense of security, community and fulfilment.

As Client Liaison Manager, I am here to support you from your initial enquiry, through to moving into our home. You are assured of a warm welcome. I hope to meet you soon, to discover what’s important to you and to share all that Signature at Farnham Common has to offer.

I am the Client Liaison Coordinator here at Signature at Farnham Common, supporting prospective residents and loved ones in their search for care. I will meet them to help and assist through what can be an emotional time. I will be there to offer my full support and guidance in their search as well as being a listening ear.

I have worked in the care sector for many years, I started in my 20s at the Epilepsy Centre in Chalfont St Peter. After a career diversion into retail, and then later as an Administrator with the National Trust, Signature offered me the opportunity to return to the care sector, firstly as an Administrator, then Clinical Administrator and then Residential Care Manager. I later joined a specialist team to implement a new system for the whole of Signature Group, a project I am very proud to have been part of. I am now excited to work at our lovely new home in Farnham Common as a Business Admin Manager and use my qualification in CIPD Level 5 in HR. I look forward to supporting all of my colleagues in their journey at Farnham Common.

I have worked in catering now for nearly 30 years, starting out at a local pub as a waitress, then moving on to be a chef in the RAF, to running my own pubs then going on to work for Heston Blumenthal, Pierre Koffman and Odds Farm as Food and Beverage Manager. I am very passionate about all things food and beverage. I am looking forward to making sure our residents will be well-looked-after and genuinely cared for while delivering a five-star service.

I am responsible for the health and safety of our residents, team members and visitors. I have had the privilege of working for over 5 years in the care sector. The previous nursing home, where I worked for 4.5 years as a Maintenance Manager, received an outstanding rating from the CQC in all five areas, which I hope to achieve again with our team at Farnham Common. I like helping people live independently and with dignity, despite their age and health, and with our team at Farnham Common we aim to create a homely atmosphere with a safe and happy environment for our residents and their loved ones.
