Coombe Vale Care Home

With over 26 years of experience as a qualified nurse and more than 20 years in care home management, I have dedicated my career to providing compassionate, person-centred care and making a meaningful difference in the lives of residents and their families.

My personal motto is “Nothing is too much.” This reflects my commitment to going above and beyond to ensure that residents receive the highest possible standard of care and support. For me, exceptional care is not simply about meeting physical needs it is about creating meaningful experiences, building relationships, encouraging independence and helping people continue to enjoy the things that bring purpose and happiness to their lives.

I also believe that excellent care extends to residents’ families, who play an important role in their loved ones’ lives. Building trust, maintaining open communication and working in partnership with families are essential to providing reassurance and ensuring continuity of care.

Equally, I recognise that a motivated, valued and well-supported team is fundamental to delivering outstanding care. I strive to create a positive working environment where colleagues feel empowered, work collaboratively and share a common commitment to improving residents’ quality of life.

My vision for Coombe Vale is to create a warm, welcoming and inclusive home where residents feel a genuine sense of belonging, families have confidence and peace of mind, and staff take pride in the difference they make every day Read less

“I’m here to help make things easier.”

“What I enjoy most about working in a care home is the people. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know so many residents and their families, and I’ve seen how important it is to have someone approachable who is there to listen, help and provide reassurance.

I’m proud to be part of a team where everyone works together to create a welcoming environment. For me, good administration is about much more than paperwork — it’s about supporting our residents, their families and the wider team so that everyone feels cared for and valued.” Read less

I have been working as a chef for 24 years, and throughout my career, I have developed a real passion for creating delicious, nourishing meals that bring people together.

For me, food is about more than just eating it is about comfort, enjoyment and creating a sense of home. I believe that a good meal can brighten someone’s day, bring back happy memories and create special moments around the table.

At Coombe Vale, I look forward to bringing my experience and passion for cooking into the kitchen, preparing meals that residents can look forward to and enjoy. I believe in the importance of using care and attention in everything I prepare, making mealtimes a welcoming and enjoyable part of each resident’s day. Read less

For me, working in care is about much more than providing support it’s about building meaningful relationships, getting to know each resident as an individual and ensuring they feel safe, valued and respected. I believe everyone deserved to be treated with kindness, compassion and dignity, with their choices and independence at the heart of everything we do.
