Meet the Westwood House Care Home Team

I have been working at Westwood House since 2022 and work alongside the General Manager and Deputy Manager to ensure that we deliver the highest standards of care we can.

I am thoroughly enjoying supporting the residents at Westwood House, and working alongside a wonderful team.

Joanne is our  Administrator and is really pleased to be working for Barchester Healthcare. Joanne only started with us earlier this year but has already established herself in the home and is a valued member of the team.

My name is Liz and I am the lifestyle coordinator at Westwood House. I have always lived and worked in Southwark and Lambeth boroughs. I spent 25 years within the education sector before deciding to try new roles. As well as teaching I have also had the privilege of being a personal carer in Dementia. I am so happy that I have been welcomed into the Westwood House family where I can continue to grow and develop.

I aim to offer a range of varied and tailored activities and group sessions that are meaningful to each of them. I am thrilled to be supporting the team in delivering fun, engaging and interesting activities for our residents.

I look forward to meeting you all!
