Meet the registered manager

Stephanie Leigh Ross

Stephanie leads the home’s nursing, care and support teams, with responsibility for day-to-day quality, resident experience and a culture in which people are known as individuals.

The manager is the best first contact for questions about the home’s current position, assessment process, availability and whether the service may be suitable for an individual’s needs.

Accommodation

Room choices discussed with care.

Private rooms and garden-access accommodation are available. Double rooms are primarily used within the NHS/D2A pathway and are not promoted as general couples accommodation.

Suitability always follows a conversation and assessment. The team can explain current availability, practical room options and fee information.
