Meet the Kingswood Court Care Home Team

Hello, I am Ugo and I am the Deputy Manager here at Kingswood Court.

I started my care journey in 2006 when I was working as a nurse in critical care, I continued to work in this field until 2020 when I moved to Barchester Healthcare as a nurse and worked my way up to Deputy Manager. 

Outside of work I enjoy taking part and training in sports like Karate and Tennis. I also like to help out in the local community and support different groups when I can. 

I have been working at Kingswood Court since early 2023. I am a unit nurse manager.

I really enjoy the connection I built with our residents and I am passionate about patient care. I like the dynamic of the team work and the relationships I get to build with our residents, their family and the health professionals.

I moved in to care because I wanted to do something more rewarding and challenge myself. I have worked in the care sector for 17 years and 5 ½ of them at Kingswood Court. I have also worked as a Unit manager at a previous care home before coming to this home.

I have been working at Kingswood Court for 3 years, first as a carer and since 2022 as an activity coordinator.

I really enjoy making a difference to our residents’ life and organising events and activities for them. I like to involve the local community in events within the home. Activities at Kingswood Court are very varied: entertainers, singers, gentle exercise, arts and craft, outings, and so much more!
