Syndie Parbhu
Hi, my name is Syndie, and I am the General Manager here at Ashminster House.
I qualified as a nurse in 1996 and came to work as in England in 1999, joining Barchester in 2012 and working my way up from a registered nurse (mental health) to unit nurse manager and now deputy manager. I lead our dementia nursing unit and used my skills I have developed to ensure our residents receive the best care they can get so they are settled in their home.
I have undertaken many areas of training to boost my skills, including leadership training and mentoring, where I mentored a team leader for her Care Practitioner Award. I like to keep up-to-date with Incontinence and wound care training, venepuncture, peg feeding, diabetes and epilepsy, syringe drivers and catheterisation, which ensures residents can be treated within our home for many ailments without the need for outside intervention.
Having worked with acute dementia for many years, I know how to run a dementia nursing unit to a high standard, and pass my knowledge on to our staff to ensure every resident is well cared for.
I still cover nursing shifts to ensure I know what is happening within our home, and after 20 years of nursing, I strive to ensure our home is one of the best in the sector.
Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my daughters and socialising with friends.
