Meet the Kenwyn Care Home team

Hi, my name is Irina, and I am a Head of Unit here at Kenwyn. I have been working at Kenwyn on and off since 2015, in the role of a Registered Nurse. In 2019, I took the full-time ‘Head of Unit’ position on the upstairs nursing units. I have had a varied nursing career, gaining experience in both the NHS and care home environments.

Hi, my name is Sarah and I am a Head of Unit. I joined Kenwyn in November 2019, and have worked my way up to the Head of Unit position on Tresco. I qualified as a General Nurse in 2002 at Plymouth University, and have worked as a District Nurse for most of my career. In my spare time, I enjoy looking after my two dogs: Amber & Archie.

I have worked at Kenwyn Care Home for over 20 years. As a Senior Sister on the Glendurgan unit, I am in charge of a team who provide a high standard of specialist care to younger residents, including those with brain injuries and tracheostomy requirements.

Outside of work, I spend my time time caring for my husband and mother-in-law - and I enjoy seeing my Grandchildren. 

Hi, I’m Chloe and I originally joined Kenwyn as a volunteer back in 2017. I then went on to become one of the activities assistants. I love interacting with the residents and planning events themed around their interests and hobbies. In my spare time, I enjoy playing games with my friends and family.

My name is Joanne and I am the Head Chef here at Kenwyn Care Home, since 2019. I have been a chef for over 30 years and have worked in many top hotels and restaurants in my long and varied career, including working alongside the late Gary Rhodes. I moved into care catering 6 years ago and I find it very rewarding.

Getting to know the residents and being able to provide fresh, healthy and nutritious meals for them each and every day is a real pleasure.

I have worked in the admin department at Kenwyn since 2012. My job role includes working on reception, as well as providing support to the Home Administrator and General Manager. I enjoy working in the busy office environment, as well as building relationships with residents and relatives.  

In my spare time, I like to attend live music and comedy events.
