My name is Bobby and I have the great privilege of working at Lakeside Care Home as the Activities Coordinator.

My job is fun and very rewarding – and I love it! I regularly invite musicians, artists, bell ringers, gardeners, chefs, and various other entertainers into the home to bring joy to the lives of residents who are living here.

I am originally from Poland, but I have been living in Jersey since 2002. I joined Barchester in 2019 and I am enjoying my role at Lakeside. It is a lovely workplace with friendly colleagues and amazing residents. Previous to this role, my background has been in administration in the hotel sector.

I have been working in the catering sector since 2006. I began working as a commis chef, gradually making my way through the ranks. I enjoy cooking, and I particularly enjoy serving Italian. I enjoy interacting with the residents and their loved ones, providing nutritious seasonal meals planned with their input.

I have been working at Lakeside since 2012. I am a senior carer on the residential floor. I help settle new residents and staff into the home. I liaise with families, GPs and other members of the multidisciplinary team to ensure the health and well-being of my residents. I enjoy my job; I ensure that my residents are well, safe and happy.

Hi, my name is Rosie and I am the village manager of Lakeside Village, which encompasses both Lakeside Care Home and Lakeside Manor Care Home.

I have worked at Lakeside Village for many years and I have been a registered nurse for over 20 years.

I enjoy nursing and in my choice of career, I have followed a family tradition: my grandmother, mother and sisters are all nurses as well.

I did my nurse training in Jersey and enjoyed a rich and diverse career on the island, which provided me with different opportunities in postgraduate nursing studies.

I am committed to being part of the island’s nursing workforce as a clinician and manager. I also encourage people with an interest in healthcare to follow their chosen career path. I am grateful to be part of a small, yet strong, island community. Jersey is beautiful and the friendliness of the islanders is boundless.

I am fortunate to work for Barchester; the company appreciates that a skilled and competent workforce provides the standards of care that lead the care sector.

Barchester provides opportunities for our staff to study and gain qualifications in their chosen profession.

My team is committed to providing safe and compassionate care. All of us have jobs that we enjoy and this is reflected in our care services provision.

Why not arrange a visit and see for yourself?
