Anne Napier
General Manager
Hello and welcome, my name is Anne Napier and I am the General Manager here at Mo Dhachaidh.
I was born and brought up in Ullapool and I am delighted to return to my home village after 20 years living and working in Glasgow. My initial first years in Glasgow were spent gaining my qualifications and working with children and young people who were at risk from harm. Following that, I worked alongside individuals living with mental health difficulties and dementia, as the manager of a care home. I then gravitated towards Health and Social Care training while achieving my Diploma in Teaching and Further Education. Latterly, I was teaching and assessing within a Glasgow College which I enjoyed very much.
With a yearning to return home to Ullapool, I was delighted to be offered a chance to join the team at Mo Dhachaidh in July 2014. My role, first and foremost is to ensure that we listen to and act upon the views and needs of residents and their families, ensuring we deliver a high standard of person centred care. Our standards of care are reflected in our Care Inspection Report which is available on our website.
I feel very privileged to be able to support older people within my own community. I have known many residents for most of my life, some taught me in school or were the aunties or uncle’s of my friends. It is a unique and humbling experience to be able to have a positive impact on their lives, the way they did mine.
Everyone is welcome at Mo Dhachaidh, so please do not hesitate to visit us at anytime.
