Dannie Tsoneva

General Manager

Hi, my name is Dannie, and I am the General Manager here at Meadowbeck. I hope you find what you're looking for on our website.

I have been a qualified nurse since 1996 and I have gained a broad spectrum of knowledge and experience in the nursing field since then. I feel privileged to be a part of such a lovely, caring, friendly and hardworking team.

My journey with Barchester commenced in 2015, when I started work as a staff Nurse. In that same year, I was promoted to Deputy Manager & Clinical lead.

Throughout the years, I have been supporting sister homes in the company, eventually ending up at Meadowbeck.

I feel really privileged to be a part of such a lovely, caring, friendly and hardworking team here at Meadowbeck, where care and compassion are key values.

I have an open door policy, so please feel free to pop in to have a chat.

Care homes and elderly care from Barchester Healthcare

Tracey Addy

Housekeeper

Tracey manages team of 8 staff to ensure that the home is clean, fresh and inviting at all times and is responsible for providing a full laundry service for all residents. Having joined the home 15 years ago it is the 'family' feel to the home that has kept her with us!

Tina Holmes

Activities Coordinator

Hi, I’m Tina, and I am the Activities Coordinator here at Meadowbeck.

I began working at the home as a Care Assistant in 1999. In 2014, I changed my role to Social Support Worker, which I enjoyed, as it involved supporting residents at Meadowbeck in their daily lifestyles.

I then became the Activities Coordinator in May 2017. I love working with the elderly and getting to know them and their families, in addition to supporting them in their active lifestyles to make their time at Meadowbeck as enjoyable as possible.

Helen Lea

Care Practitioner

I am a Care Practitioner here at Meadowbeck and I have worked here since 1994. I started working as a Care Assistant then went on to do my NVQ Level 3 and passed my care practitioner course in 2016. I now work on our Memory Lane unit.

Vicky Newton-Hughes

Care Practitioner

I have been working at Meadowbeck since 2016, first as a Senior Care Assistant and now as a Care Practitioner, which I was promoted to in 2016. I previously worked as a carer in the community for 3 years and also did my NVQ Level 3 qualification during this time.

Annu Saji

Nurse

I am a registered nurse here at Meadowbeck with over 20 years of experience in nursing, and have been working here since 2009. I enjoy my job very much, especially nursing for the elderly, and I am very passionate about providing high quality palliative care.

Janet Owsten

Nurse

I have worked for Meadowbeck for over 25 years as an RGN. I have extensive knowledge of this care home and the residents we support.

Outside of work, I help with my grandchildren, who range from 4 to 17 years. I also manage Rainbows and Brownies with Girl Guiding.

Kirk Bostic

Head Chef

Kirk and his team create a nutritious, variable and tasty menu in the home, catering for all types of palate. Ingredients are sourced locally for freshness and quality and with Kirk having a culinary arts background, and worked all over the world, he brings some great ideas and creativity to the team. What he loves about his job is being able to 'give something back' and help our residents with developing diets to suit and tempt them.

My job is to maintain the home and gardens at Meadowbeck.

I enjoy working around the home and gardens.
