We did come to your open day in the summer and we were impressed with the way things were done so that helped us to make our final decision to come to you.
I'm sure that we made the right choice.

During the six weeks that my mother has been a resident at Ambleside I have seen an improvement in her health and wellbeing.
All staff have provided good care
The manager and deputy manager are visible and always available and have provided support and reassurance since our first day at Ambleside.
Needs have been anticipated and I appreciate the proactive approach the home takes to my mother's care.
I enjoy visiting my mum at the home and I am always welcomed by staff. Thank you.

We are sorry to hear that there are aspects of our service that have not meet your mother's expectations and we do appreciate your constructive feedback. A new home manager was appointed in December and some further staff changes followed, however, we are pleased so say that staff turnover has reduced in recent months and we now have a much more stable team in place. I understand that our head chef and business administrator have been working closely with your mother to address her concerns and ensure an improved service, including developing a menu which incorporates her preferences. We hope that you have since seen an improvement but please do talk to the home manager if you have any further concerns or your mother can raise these at the resident's committee, of which she is an active member.

I began working for Care UK in 2017, and it was evident from my first day that Care UK has a strong ethos and is passionate about delivering high standards of care.
Care UK is continually expanding and has many support teams available.
Before joining Ambleside, I was the deputy manager at Scarlet house. Prior to Care UK I held a number of roles at a domiciliary care and live-in care provider.
As Home Manager, it’s important to be a good listener, approachable, accommodating, motivated and have high standards.
My favourite part of the day is spending time with the residents and making a difference to their lives. It’s fantastic to see residents happy and smiling. Making a positive impact on their lives makes the stresses of the job worth it, and I look forward to continuing fulfilling residents’ lives at Ambleside.
It also makes me proud to see colleagues develop and progress their careers through mentoring and coaching. I enjoy sharing my skills and knowledge with the team and helping colleagues to follow and achieve their career aspirations.
Outside of work, I love going on days out with my son, eating out with friends, walking my dogs and going on holiday.
