Meet the Atfield House Care Home Team

I joined Barchester in 2019 and I have been the General Manager of Atfield House Nursing home since 2022, I am committed to ensuring the residents receive the very highest standard of care, and I am passionate about developing and leading my team in a way in which they are empowered to use their skills and knowledge for the wellbeing of those we support. I am so proud to receive the CQC inspection report with one outstanding rating under responsive domain. My favourite part of the job is meeting all our residents and finding out about their life and backgrounds - I have met some really interesting people throughout my career and I think life history plays such a vital part in everyone’s care. My vision for Atfield house is to create a  home away from home environment for our residents and being one big happy family.

I have over 14 years’ experience in the care sector and I have recently completed my Step up programme with Warwick university and Barchester. I really enjoy the daily challenges, team recruitment and always pushing and exceeding performance where I can. I also enjoy adding value, enhancing care and giving elder life purpose to enable residents to engage in a fulfilled life. l am passionate about delivering the levels and standards of care that I would expect for my own parents. Making a difference to people's lives throughout my career has been my biggest achievement. I strive to continually develop which ensures that the individuals I care for experience the very best care and life enrichment in later life. Every day is an achievement, delivering and pushing the levels of care to exceed the expectations of Barchester and myself.
