Meet the Ashfields Care Home team

Hello, my name is Claire and I am the Deputy Manager here at Ashfields Care Home.

My journey into the care of frail older people started nearly 20 years ago and this has included managing residential/dementia care and complex care homes - all of which I have truly adored!

I have always had a natural affinity with the older generation and am passionate about providing the best care and service for each and every one of them and their families every single day.

The team and I are dedicated to guaranteeing that all of our residents are treated with dignity, respect and receive bespoke care support as we create many more happy memories together here at Ashfields.

I have always enjoyed working closely with people and especially meeting residents, their families and friends. If there is anything that I can do to help - please do not hesitate to ask and I look forward to welcoming you at Ashfields very soon.

Hello, my name is Hayley and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Ashfields Care Home. My job is to physically and mentally stimulate our residents by offering a range of activities for them to enjoy. I want to get everyone involved and make our home community and atmosphere as positive and welcoming as possible. 

Making sure that our residents have things to do that they really enjoy doing is something that I hold very close to my heart. It is so important to make sure that they are happy and enjoy all of the activities and events that we host for them.

A lot of our residents also enjoy our special trips out on our Minibus as we create new, special memories together here at Ashfields.

Hello, my name is David and I am the Head Chef here at Ashfields Care Home. I pride myself on preparing high quality food and seeing our residents enjoy the dishes that the team and myself create makes me very happy.

Our Hospitality team here at Ashfields are committed to providing seasonal home cooked menus offering choice, nutrition and quality - including exciting menus to specific individual dietary needs and all appetites. 

The food we produce is hugely important to our residents which is why it is absolutely imperative that we always get their feedback and continuously meet the needs and nutritional quota of every single resident who chooses to make Ashfields their home.
