Hi, my name is Michelle and I am the General Manager here at Derham House. I hope you find what you're looking for on our website.
I worked as a home manager for 4 years in various settings within the same company, ensuring that the homes attained compliance and they had a welcoming and homely environment that people would wish to live in. Before this, I was a deputy home manager in a role ensuring that all clinical aspects of the home were met, so that people were safe and well-cared for. I am a qualified nurse and have previously had experience caring for people with terminal illnesses. I have further qualifications in dementia care from Bradford University.
It is a wonderful feeling able to leave at the end of the day knowing that I have been able to make a change to the people’s lives within the home in which I work, and that people remain safe and happy in this environment.

Before Barchester, I was a receptionist at a 120 bed care home for another care provider. I have over four years of experience within the healthcare sector in such roles as kitchen assistant, healthcare assistant and, of course, receptionist.
I really appreciate the core values of Barchester; t they have a sector leading employee recognition programme, recognising all staff who work hard, allowing staff to share the success of the business. This is something I have never come across before in previous companies I have worked for.

I began working at Derham House as a Gardener/Maintenance Assistant in 2011; I became the Head of Maintenance here in 2013. My main responsibility is to keep the home in full working condition and in compliance with Barchester policies.
Families often rely on me to help them personalise residents' rooms by putting up pictures and shelves. You will often see me burrowing around in my shed preparing for my next job.
