Julie Bond
Hi, my name is Julie, and I am the Acting Senior General Manager here at Chester Court. Welcome to our website!
I am proud to say that I have been part of the care sector for almost thirty years. I began my journey in care as a care assistant at the tender age of eighteen years. I have worked both day and night shifts, weekends, bank holidays and enjoyed all aspects of delivering high quality care. I progressed from care assistant to senior care assistant and then from a unit manger to a home manager.
Twenty years as a home manager enabled me to gain a plethora of knowledge and experience in the care sector. I have achieved many qualifications and continue to learn on a daily basis.
I remain humble as a manager of a care service and I am privileged to be entrusted with the care of those we support at Chester Court. I strive to enable and empower every resident living at the home.
Wendy Luke
I have nursed within the private healthcare sector for over 27 years and have been a Deputy Manager for 16 years. I joined Barchester Healthcare in 2009. I have a passion for wound care and have completed both Tissue Viability and Leg Ulcer Management modules at University. I have won an award for Innovations in Wound Care and was invited to Downing Street by the Prime Minister in recognition of my contributions to health care.
My personal experience and skills contribute to the vast and varied knowledge the team here at Chester Court Care Home have, enabling us to deliver high quality care to our client group.
