Elm View Care Home

My name is Lynn Ward and I have worked in the care field for more than 30 years having initially trained and qualified as a nurse and practiced in the NHS before joining the care home sector. My passion and vision is to give residents the best possible day they can have every day as well as providing families with the support, reassurance and peace of mind they deserve having chosen Elm View Care Home for their loved one. I am constantly looking for ways to develop and enhance our service to deliver the best quality care that older adults deserve as well as fully integrating the home within our local community.

My name is Hanna Mejia and I am delighted to have joined the team at Elm View Care Home as Head of Care. Having achieved a Bachelor of Science in Nursing I have worked for more than 20 years in the elderly care sector leading teams to deliver the highest possible standards of resident care. I am passionate about ensuring residents have the best quality of life they can and enjoy working alongside community teams to ensure this is possible. I look forward to welcoming new residents and their families to the Elm View community.

The Chef Manager organises every aspect of the catering operation and provides a safe, nutritious, quality service to our residents using freshly produced food. With a hands-on role, leading a team, they provide a quality catering service and help create a warm and friendly atmosphere for our residents. Working with our residents they help to create menus to meet their needs and suit their tastes.

The Administrator will focus on the smooth running of the home; in whatever area they may be needed. From greeting visitors to recruiting, the Administrator is present in many aspects of life in the home, even if you don’t always see them! To be successful in the role, our Administrators have to be flexible and calm, able to multi-task and always keen to take on a new challenge. It’s often the Administrator that brings the IT skills to a home, helping them to keep everything organised. Above that though, Administrators are communicators, able to speak confidently and listen closely to everyone from Managers and Care Workers to visitors and residents.
