Meet the Brookfield Care Home team

Jane is our Deputy Manager who joined the company in 2004 as a Care Assistant. In 2009 Jane was promoted to Senior Care Practitioner then later to Deputy General Manager.

Jane supports the General Manager plus all other staff. Jane is very approachable and is willing to undertake any task that is allocated. Jane also participates in fund-raising, activities with residents and also an occasional cook! She is also great at counselling for residents and families.

Jane lives at home with her husband who is now retired and they have been together for 36 years. She has 2 children and 5 grandchildren, the latest additions arrived 2 weeks apart in August this year.

Jane likes to travel and likes to holiday a couple or more times a year to see the world.

Jane loves music and follows lots of musicians on Twitter, especially Harry Stiles and Zane Malik. She also enjoys going to concerts and festivals.

Having joined us in November 2008, Jeanette is a hugely integral part of the team.  When asked what she likes best about the job, Jeanette replied by saying with a giggle: 'Sarah (GM) says I've got to say her! But we do get on really well and I really do love working for her. It's great to be able to see everything through from start to finish and it's really nice to be able to help families as they try to navigate their way through maze that is care fees funding.'

In her spare time Jeanette loves to spend time with her family, particularly all her grandchildren. 

Hi, my name is Kerry and I am the activities coordinator here at Brookfield.  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.

It is important that when planning the homes life enrichment programme that our Residents are given choice and variety to keep the stimulated and happy so that each activity is a positive experience.

I have worked at Brookfield since 2009, initially starting as a night carer. I thoroughly enjoy my job and making a difference each day to those I support. I am responsible for ensuring a high standard of care is delivered to residents, and support our General Manager in ensuring the home runs smoothly.

Dave has worked at Brookfield for over 10 years and the home's beautiful gardens are a real credit to all his hard work and dedication.  When asked what he likes best about working here – it’s just about everything!  ‘Who wouldn’t like a job doing what you love best – gardening!’  When not enjoying the great outdoors, Dave entertains Rresidents with his singing of songs from yesteryear. Dave is also an avid horse racing fan and recently became part owner in a syndicate for a race horse called Hexagon.

Outside of work, Dave loves to watch a spot of football or rugby – and follows Man City and Warrington Wolves. Dave has another part time job as well – so just manages to squeeze the home into his busy week – so if you need a spot of Fork Lift Truck training – he’s your man!
