Meet the Cheverton Lodge Care Home Team

My name is Dee and I am a Deputy Manager here at Cheverton Lodge care home. 

I have been a nurse for 46 years and enjoy working in different hospitals and care homes. 

I joined the Barchester team in 2020 and I always try my best as a nurse I strive to maintain a good relationship with residents, loved ones and colleagues. My aim is to be a nurse for 50 years.

My name is Teena Thomas. I have been a nurse for over five years and have had the opportunity to work with the NHS, where I gained valuable experience in providing high-quality patient care. I joined Cheverton Lodge four months ago, and although it’s a different setting, I found it easy to adapt and quickly felt part of the team. Working here has allowed me to continue doing what I love most, caring for others and making a positive difference in people’s lives. I’m passionate about ensuring residents feel comfortable, respected, and well looked after. It’s been a rewarding journey so far, and I’m looking forward to growing further and continuing to contribute to the great work we do at Cheverton Lodge.

My journey at Cheverton has been filled with new experiences and challenges that have greatly contributed to my professional and personal growth. Over the past few months, I have had the opportunity to learn extensively and develop my skills in a supportive environment. I am proud to share that I was recently promoted to the role of Home Administrator, a position I am truly excited to undertake. I look forward to embracing this new role, taking on its responsibilities, and continuing to contribute positively to the team and the care home.

I joined the team at Cheverton Lodge in September 2024 .  it is truly been a rewarding and interesting journey.  I have had the opportunity to contribute to a team dedicated to providing exceptional care, and it has been an incredibly fulfilling experience. With my many years of hospitality experience I am excited to bring my knowledge of great food and nutrition, customer service and deliver a first class dining experience to the residents at Cheverton Lodge.
