We have recently appointed a new manager to oversee the running of Maplebrook whilst supporting and maintaining the excellent standards for which Maplebrook is known.
Kate Ingram, home manager moves into the role after serving as assistant manager for two months. Prior to this, Kate worked as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner (ANP) supporting a portfolio of 10 Wolverhampton-based care homes, including Maplebrook. Through her work as an ANP Kate has known all of Maplebrook’s residents since their admission, which provides familiarity and consistency for residents, as she moves into the new leadership position.
Kate was also one of the three original members of Wolverhampton’s Rapid Intervention Service, established in 2018 to reduce hospital admissions across the city. Initially comprising three Advanced Nurse Practitioners and one medical consultant the team has since expanded into a vital resource supporting over two hundred thousand people citywide, available 24/7.
Commenting on her appointment as home manager, Kate Ingram, said: “Moving into the role of manager at Maplebrook Care Home is a career highlight for me. Caring for others has always been my passion, beginning with assisting evening drinks rounds in a care home at the age of 11 with the Girl Guides - a fond memory that has been foundational to my career.
“Within my role I will be focussing on increasing occupancy at Maplebrook to ensure that more people with complex health needs can benefit from our excellent facilities, beautiful light and airy spaces, and outstanding levels of person-centred care. I’m excited to get started.”
