Meet the Latimer Court Care Home Team

My name is Maddie and I am the Deputy Manager here at Latimer Court. I qualified as a nurse in 2018 and have worked in a variety of settings since, some of which have included acute sector, neuro-rehabilitation and dementia care.

I have always strived to be a compassionate and caring nurse, and ensure that I am able to deliver the highest standard of care.

Since joining Latimer Court, my ambition has been to continue delivering outstanding care to our residents and making this Barchester home one to be proud of.

I joined Barchester in March 2020. I first graduated as a registered nurse in 1992 in India. then in 2007 I moved to the UK as a student nurse and graduated in October 2007 to become a RGN. I have a passion to work with the elderly nursing patients. 

Hi, my name is Becky, I am the Home Administrator. I joined the Latimer team in January 2024. Before working at Latimer Court, I worked for over 9 years in front line child protection, safeguarding babies and young children as well as offering support and guidance to families. In my spare time outside of work, I enjoy going to the gym, reading and holidaying in the sun!

Within my role I support Donna and the wider team, carrying out various administrative tasks including general enquiries, residents contracts and paperwork, staffing rotas and recruitment.

Alongside Danni, I am often the first point of contact for families looking for the right home for their loved one. I understand that this can be a difficult and overwhelming time for some and want to offer reassurance that we are here to answer any questions you may have and support you in any way we can.

My door is always open so please pop in and say hello if you are passing.

I'm Dan and I'm the Activities Coordinator here at Latimer Court. I joined the team in 2022. I have worked in care for many years as a carer and activities roles, and absolutely love my role here. I love working with the elderly and have a real passion to enrich every day and make their lives as special as they can be.

I have many ideas for group activities and events as well as for individual interactions, and love seeing these ideas coming to life and the difference it makes to each resident's day!

Hi my name is Jon, and I have worked as a Chef since 2011, particularly in care homes since 2014.

I have qualifications in Professional Cookery and as a Senior Production Chef.

I love working at Latimer Court and getting to know our residents so that I can provide healthy and nutritious meals based around each residents individual like and dislikes.

I have been based at Latimer Court from when the home first opened in 2013. I am a qualified electrician and this has been invaluable. My role is to ensure that the home is a safe and well-maintained environment for all. I love being able to help in anyway that I can, from repairing a resident's TV to taking them out for the day as the mini bus driver.

I joined Latimer Court in 2014 as a Housekeeper before being promoted to Head Housekeeper in October 2017. I lead the housekeeping and laundry teams, ensuring that all areas of Latimer Court are clean, tidy and well-presented creating a lovely home for our residents. 

I joined Barchester in 2020, I love my role supporting residents, their families and visitors.  I also help families considering care options and show them around Latimer Court.  I help with various admin roles and enjoy being part of the team. 

My name is Danni. I'm Admin Assistant here at Latimer Court and I joined the team in November 2023.

My main duties include being the first face that greets anyone arriving at Latimer Court. I assist and support our whole team with any administrative tasks that they need. I also support people and their families who are choosing a care home, answering any questions they may have and showing them our lovely home. I love how different every day is and listening to the residents stories of their past - it's a pleasure working here!

My spare time is spent with my boys, my partner and our dog, Norman. I love travelling, adventures, reading, and eating out.

Meet Lawrence one of our resident ambassadors, he prefers to be called Lorry.  Lorry loves watching all sports and enjoys walks around our gardens. Lorry used to be involved in speedway when he was younger and enjoyed sports in general.

Meet Margaret one of our resident ambassadors, she has lived in Worcester for most of her life and lived in the same house for over 60 years.  She worked at a local newspaper as a receptionist for over 20 years. Margaret loves spending time with her family and also looks forward to our 'Knit & Natter' group every week with her friends at Latimer Court. 

My role inspires me to be more person centred each and every day. To connect with the residents on a personal level. It allows me to see past their illness, to see them as individuals who all have a story to tell about their past, present and their families who have been on the journey with them.
