Meet the Boroughbridge Manor Care Home team

Hi, my name is Ashley and I began working at Boroughbridge in June 2013 as a carer, following a short gap I returned in January 2018 as team leader looking after our residents in the Rose Unit. I thoroughly enjoy looking after the residents and spending time chatting to them and doing daily activities.

I continue to develop my skills to support our residents on a day-to-day basis. As team leaders we enjoy our jobs and enjoy any training that helps with our continued development that enhances the delivery of great Quality of Care to our residents within the home.

Hi, my name is Marta and I joined the home in September 2011 working my way up from carer, senior carer and to team leader in January 2020. I support our residents on Lily and Daisy Units. I thoroughly enjoy looking after the residents and spending time chatting to them and doing daily activities.

I continue to develop my skills to support our residents on a day-to-day basis, I enjoy my job and enjoy any training that helps with our continued development that enhances the delivery of great Quality of Care to our residents within the home.

I have been working for Barchester since January 2020 and Boroughbridge Manor since 2014. I started as a Hostess and moved to Receptionist in 2016, before being promoted to Administrator in 2017. 

I deal with all aspects of the administration in the home to ensure it runs smoothly, including ordering, recruitment, setting up contracts and manning the telephones. There's never a dull day!

We all know that keeping active is important. We have created a wonderful culture within the home and we work together to give residents the best possible experience. We are here to ensure that residents enjoy an environment that is both stimulating and socially active. We ensure the team knows each residents' preferences, so that we can deliver a person-centered program of events and activities. Essential to our homely feel is the strong relationships of trust we build with residents and their families and friends. The home also has its very own minibus for our numerous outings for coffee and shopping, which residents love.

I joined Boroughbridge Manor as Maintenance Manager in 2016. I have worked in many roles within the home, including as a Team Leader, Home Trainer  and Activity Lead. I have worked for Boroughbridge Manor since 2012.

Maintenance is paramount when it comes to our residents, relatives and colleagues, and my role is to keep the home environment to the highest standards possible, ultimately creating a safe and warm place for our residents to live and my colleagues to work. 

I also manage and deal with contractors, keeping records up-to-date for our audits. I am the home's Health and Safety champion.

Fiona is one of our activities co-ordinators. She works as part of a team delivering activities that stimulate the residents and keeps them socially and mentally active. 

Fiona does a lot of one to one work with the residents tailoring activities to their needs and personalities and the resident’s engagement is lovely to see.

Hannah is part of our reception team and works the second half of the week. Hannah has worked at Boroughbridge Manor since 2014 and in a number of roles - carer, senior, team leader, home trainer.

Hannah is studying another NVQ to add another string to her bow and draws on her background in dementia care, brain injury and psychology to provide great customer and resident care and advice.
