Meet The Manager
Lena LeMesurier is Manager at Lapis Domiciliary Care.
Lena has worked in Health and Social Care for 26 years, and has a very 'hands on' approach to management and client care. She is 'out in field', working with the team on regular basis.
Lena develops excellent working relationships with both team members, clients and families alike, and maintains excellent professional relationships with health and and social care peers, acting as the client advocate when required.
Lena always undertakes the initial client assessment, then develops robust and detailed careplans for the team to follow.
Lapis Care is a multiple award winning care provider. We are based near Bishops Waltham, Hampshire and we provide Care in the surrounding area.
We are owned by Registered Nurse, Liz who had 35 years+ nursing experience. Lapis was founded from a wish to change the face of Social Care and has now been operational for 8 years.
We understand the challenges and 'minefield' that is involved when trying to source care for someone you love. We also recognise that many family members now belong to the 'sandwich generation', where they work and care for aging family members and often grandchildren too. It is therefore vital that you can source a company that can be trusted and relied upon to help ease that burden and worry, whilst also delivering exceptional care.
We offer various care options depending on your level of need. This ranges from social and emotional support right through to complex and end of life care.
We pride ourselves on building close and trusting relationships with our clients and their families. This way we develop thorough person centred care. Its the little extras that are just as or even more important than routine care.
