Meet the Manager

Laura is our Home Manager at Oak Manor – here’s a glimpse into her role at the home in her own words:

“I’ve always wanted to work in care – it is my passion and I feel extremely fortunate to be the home manager at Oak Manor.

I began my career in care by volunteering at a nursing home and I loved every second of care home life. As I became a senior carer, I decided I would fulfil my dream of becoming a nurse, studying adult nursing and gaining a first-class degree. As a qualified nurse, I drive the highest standards of person-centred care. Although I love being a nurse, I also love being a manager, with the ability to influence positive change which I get great satisfaction from.

Getting to know the people we care for, seeing them happy and improving their lives holistically is one of my greatest motivations. Our residents must always be the centre of all we do.

When residents choose to make Oak Manor their home, every day will remain just as they like it, with careful note taken of their preferences, from waking times to food choices, hobbies and interests.

We are here for you and your loved ones every step of the way to help and will do all we can to put our residents and their families at ease. The most important thing is that they are happy.”

Meet the Team

At Oak Manor, we work together as a dedicated team to provide the highest quality care for our residents. Whether it’s direct care or behind-the-scenes support, every role is essential in creating a nurturing environment where both our residents and team can thrive. We believe that by working hand-in-hand, we can ensure everyone feels valued, respected, and cared for.
