Meet The Manager
Anna Rizza Ramos is General Manager at Maidstone Care Centre.
I am delighted to lead the team at Maidstone Care Centre in my capacity as the General Manager, I am deeply passionate about caring for older people. With 19 years of experience in the sector, I find joy and fulfilment in ensuring residents are well cared for and live a rewarding life in our home - I especially enjoy my daily interactions with all the residents. I have a degree in nursing from the Philippines and have specialised in dementia care completing further studies at Bradford University. My dedication to improving the lives of the residents, is at the heart of my work.
Situated in a pleasant residential area, Maidstone Care Centre is purpose-built and carefully designed to support our residents to live happy, fulfilled and comfortable lives.
Located over three floors, our home includes light and airy, open plan lounges/diners as well as spacious en-suite bedrooms, and a variety of communal spaces such as our traditional-themed pub, quiet room and hair salon.
Our landscaped gardens are wheelchair accessible and designed to be a welcoming place for people to relax on our elevated decking are complete with outdoor furniture, or to enjoy a spot of light gardening.

| Activities Are So Important |
|---|
|
Supporting our residents to enjoy every day living at Maidstone Care Centre is a key focus for our dedicated team. By getting to know each person, we are able to tailor our activities and events to their likes and dislikes as well as activities they may like to try. No two days are the same here and, alongside our usual daily hobby-based activities, we also like to host events which are a little out of the ordinary. In addition to keeping fit with our chair-based exercises, baking, quizzes, movie nights and our knit and natter club, we also take great pleasure in welcoming visiting entertainers, schools, nurseries, therapy animals and groups to our home to enjoy spending time with our residents. |
