Hi, my name is Liliana and I am the Deputy Manager here at Bryn Ivor Lodge.

I have a degree in Nursing and a masters in Management of Health, a vast experience and knowledge of the care sector and a real passion for delivering high quality care.

I offer guidance to my team of nurses, care practitioners, senior carers and carers to ensure the health, safety and well-being of those we support by providing high standards of care whilst respecting dignity, privacy and wishes in a warm and friendly environment.

My team and I will ensure that each resident and their loved ones are satisfied with our services at Bryn Ivor Lodge.

I have worked in the care sector for many years, working with various people who are on different stages of their dementia journey. I am passionate about giving my resident the best care possible. I have been working for Barchester since 2015 as a senior carer, and was promoted to head of unit in 2019.

I joined to Bryn Ivor Lodge in 2017 and have gained a lot of experience during that time. I am very proud of my work and get a lot of satisfaction from providing high standards of care and guiding the team. I enjoy working with the residents on the Memory Lane community and I have an amazing team! I enjoy my job and feel that working at Bryn Ivor Lodge is both a personal and professional privilege.

I was promoted to Unit Nurse Manager on the General Nursing Unit in 2020. I have a passion for the care of elderly people and I like to provide a homely atmosphere for residents and their families, whilst also promoting high standards of evidence-based clinical care. We have a fantastic team here at Bryn Ivor Lodge who are all committed to delivering the best positive care to those we support.

I joined the team at Bryn Ivor Lodge in April 2015 and have seen the beautiful home through every stage of development. I started as the Home Services Advisor and I am now an Activities Coordinator. I have built good relationships with residents, loved ones and other staff members and continue to develop my skills in this role. Being able to keep residents happy and engaged in activities is a very rewarding experience for me.

My name is Nathan Philpott and I have come on board as Head Chef here at Bryn Ivor Lodge. I have worked in the catering industry for over 15 years in all sectors, from restaurants and hotels to Michelin star establishments. I am extremely passionate about providing high quality, nutritional home-cooked food for those we support. I am responsible for all aspects of the kitchen, meeting all dietary requirements and ensuring that residents are happy with what they eat.

I was born and raised in very rural west wales. Following school, I went to work in the civil service in London, where I remained for the whole of my working life.

My husband Peter and I met in school. Whilst we spent our working lives in London, we kept in close contact with our families in west Wales and planned to return there on retirement. I have three siblings who all live in west Wales and it is my hope that in a short while we will be able to have a healthy happy time together.

I moved into Bryn Ivor in 2021, when I was unwell, but hope I can soon move back home.
