Meet the Oulton Park Care Home Team

My name is David and I joined Barchester Healthcare in 2024 as a Deputy General Manager. I have been fortunate and privileged to start in the role of General Manager of Oulton Park Care Centre in 2025.

I have been a nurse for more than 20 years, spending most of my time working in community nursing services throughout Norfolk and Suffolk. I have a wide range of experience both clinically and in leadership and try to foster a friendly and approachable manner in my daily work. Having trained in Suffolk, I obtained my nursing diploma, then obtained a first-class degree in Primary Care Nursing through the UEA.

I am passionate about providing person-centred care, and hope to support this as a core ethos in the home, ensuring that the people we care for, and their relatives and advocates, are listened to and included when planning the care that we deliver. The people we care for should feel that this is their home from home, and I am keen to do what I can to support this.

I welcome feedback from anyone who can support me and the team to provide outstanding care to the people we care for. Please feel free to come along and have a look at what we do to support people here at Oulton Park Care Centre.
