Meet the Newington Court Care Home Team

Hello I’m Amy and I am the Deputy General Manager at Newington Court.

As a Deputy General Manager I bring years of dedicated experience in nursing and healthcare management to the team. Known for my unwavering commitment to residents care, I have demonstrated exceptional leadership abilities which I have gained from various clinical settings.

Starting my career as a registered nurse I quickly rose through the ranks, showcasing a deep understanding of nursing protocols, compassion for residents and an ability for problem solving. My passion for continuous learning led me to pursue my Level 5 Leadership and Management training equipping me with the skills I need to excel in my leadership role.

In my current position as a Deputy General Manager I play a pivotal role in ensuring smooth operations within the nursing home. I oversee the whole team guiding, mentoring and supporting to ensure optimal resident care. I collaborate closely with healthcare professionals to develop and implement highest standards of care.

I am driven by a genuine desire to make a difference in the lives of residents and their families. 

I came to Newington Court in October from my home country, Nigeria. I am  reallyenjoying my role here. Its a pleasure getting to know the residents and their families and working with a wonderful team of nurses and carers.

Tiffany joined Newington in 2021 as a Senior Nurse. She is a very experienced nurse and has now been promoted to Unit Nurse Manager on our Memory Lane unit.  As well as superb communication skills that have enabled her to develop a good rapport with residents, their families and staff, Tiffany possesses excellent observation skills and is knowledgeable and driven. 

I joined the team at Newington Court in May 2016. My role is very varied and covers HR, payroll and accounts, in addition to supporting the General Manager and the rest of the management team. I have many years experience working in secretarial, HR and accounts roles and I am also a qualified NVQ Assessor in Business Administration. I enjoy interacting with residents and seeing them happy when joining in with the activities that are arranged for them.

I joined Newington Court in September 2021. After working as a Carer in September 2022 I became the Lead Activities Co-coordinator. It is a pleasure to care for our residents and make sure that their needs are met to the highest standards. Every day is different but it is a very rewarding job and gives a great sense of satisfaction. I am looking forward to ensuring that our residents are getting an enriched lifestyle and by getting to know them on a one-to-one basis making sure that we cater to everyone’s needs and interests.
