Meet the Lynde House Care Home team
Our wonderful team comprises nurses, carers, activities coordinators, chefs, housekeepers and more. These people are here to ensure that residents enjoy their time at the home and are supported to live life to the fullest. Meet some of our staff below:
Alison McIntosh
As the Registered Manager, I am responsible for the overall running of Lynde House and assisted in this by a great team of staff.
Although from Scotland, I have lived in Richmond for over 30 years. My career has been in two stages; hospital management where I spent almost 26 years working in acute hospitals including Kingston and the West Middlesex Hospitals and Care Home Management at Lynde House where I have been since 2011.
I have had a long interest and involvement in organising and providing services to older people and I have been fortunate enough to put my experience to good use at Lynde House where we continue to strive for improvement in everything we offer and provide for our residents. We consistently achieve great feedback from residents and relatives on the care and services offered, a significant aspect to this being our low staff turnover and the lovely environment both inside the home itself and the grounds in which it is situated.

Khuskaran Kaur has worked at Lynde House as the Deputy Manager since 2016. She has a wealth of nursing and dementia experience and has worked with several of the large care providers in the area.
Ewa Dorczak

She is a qualified nurse and was recently promoted to the role of Unit Manager for the ground floor of the home; in this role she is responsible for the care of residents under the direction of the Deputy Manager.
We are very pleased to welcome her back to Lynde House and congratulate her on the recent promotion!
