The introduction to the home was very informative and detailed with every effort made to accommodate our wishes for a smooth transition from Devon. On arrival with both, all staff were very welcoming and caring to ensure this change was smooth. Since then, the level of care being shown has been exemplary. One in-law is demanding in care needs and this has been dealt with through a very caring and supportive manner, the other says himself 'five-star'!

As soon as I walked through the doors of this home I knew it would be right for both of my parents. The admission process was very efficient, friendly, and informative. This was all new ground for me and I felt I was dealt with in an excellent manner. Both my parents have settled in to the home very quickly and I am impressed with the care and attention given by all the staff.
Accommodation is very good. The staff are friendly and efficient. There appears to be a shortage of staff.

Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your review for Ancasta Grove – I was incredibly happy to read your comments and see your excellent scores for the team and facilities. I would also just like to take a moment to reassure you regarding the number of colleagues at the home. We always make sure that we not only a good number of staff to ensure that the care and lifestyle that is delivered is not only safe 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but at Ancasta Grove actually have ratios of colleagues to residents currently far above and beyond some other care homes at around two or three residents per team member (against a ‘standard’ ratio of seven or eight residents to each team member). Thank you again for your feedback and please do let us know if you have any further comments, suggestions or questions and we’ll always be happy to help.

As Home Manager, my role is to deliver consistently high levels of care.
I also think it is important to make sure colleagues feel heard and valued.
I have varied experience and qualifications, including a degree in maths and statistics, expertise in financial modelling streams, and I’m a registered nurse. As a home manager, I get to put all my skills and knowledge to good use every day.
In my role, you need to be passionate about caring. You also have to be friendly and genuinely enjoy being with people and working as part of a team. Care UK’s values: Caring, Passionate and Teamwork underpin everything we do. Care UK is also an organisation that encourages career growth, and for me, working for the most awarded care home provider is a real career highlight. As author Tia Walker says: “To care for those who once cared for us is one of the highest honours.”
One of my favourite parts of the day is the time I spend with residents, their families and colleagues – and anyone else who pops in for a chat. Everyone has a story, and I love listening and finding out more about people.
In my free time, I adore exploring the seaside and travelling. I also enjoy taking walks and being with my family.
