Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review about our home. As a home, we have had so much support from our relatives during the past 18 months, and we are very grateful for the positive manner in which our relatives have embraced all the changes with us. Your mother is a delight to have in the home, and it is good to hear that she is content and happy in the home and that her short stay has turned into a permanent residence with us.

Thank you very much for taking the time offering a review of the care we offered toward your sister for her time with us. It is sad that due to restrictions, you could not properly see the levels of care that we ensured were received. But as you mention, the overall care resulted in huge delight for us as a team, to watch your sister walk from the building of her own accord when she left to return home.
We were humbled to have the opportunity to assist her with her care needs to gain such a result. Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of assistance again going forward. Many Thanks

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review of our home, especially during this difficult time for you and your family. Your father was well-liked and loved by all staff and we have fond memories of him, especially when he was still able to joke with everyone around him.

I am a dedicated home manager with over 20 years of experience in healthcare, starting as a nurse in 1997.
Since 2020, I’ve focused on providing exceptional care in nursing homes, ensuring residents live fulfilling lives in a supportive environment. Outside of work, I’m a proud mother of three and an avid marathon runner.
I’ve met incredible people here, and I love hearing the amazing stories from our residents. With my BSc in Adult Nursing, I’ve completed the End of Life Pathway course and Mental Health First Aider training, making a real difference in their lives.
I enjoy making people laugh and taking time to sit and chat with residents, helping to brighten their day. I’ve also completed COSHH training, which supports me in keeping the home safe and comfortable for everyone.
Every day is different and always busy, but I enjoy keeping the residents safe and ensuring their well-being. I’ve completed Eroster Training, Sales Ledger Induction, and Show Round Training.
Sharon decided to work at Healthcare Homes as she wanted to get back into good old-fashioned cooking.
Prior to joining Healthcare Homes, Sharon was a head chef/Manager at a school for autistic children.
She believes you need to be passionate about your role, have very high standards and enjoys what you are doing. Be adaptable, reliable and friendly to be good in her role.
The favourite part of her working day is serving lunches to residents and receiving feedback from them and seeing residents enjoying their meals.
The biggest professional challenge in her career to date was making the decision to move to the care sector from the education sector. As it turned out, it has been the best decision she has ever made.
Sharon's biggest career highlight to date was preparing food for Princess Anne!
Qualities that make her stand out are being approachable, hardworking, reliable and trustworthy.
Outside of work, she enjoys watching rugby and watching her son play rugby. She also enjoys music and playing darts.
Sharon looks forward to seeing residents and relatives enjoying their meals as it is a major part of their every daily lives at Blandford Grange.
The second I walked into Blandford Grange it felt like a home away from home, the staff have an infectious attitude, and the residents and relatives are truly amazing. There is never a dull moment, and you never know what each day will bring! I couldn’t imagine a better place to work. I love being able to interact with our residents, relatives and team at the front of the house at reception.
