Meet The Manager
Nikki Kelly is Care Home Manager at Mount Pleasant Care Home.
Having qualified as a registered nurse in 2000, I bring over 17 years’ experience to my role with 10 years’ experience in orthopaedics nursing, working predominantly with elderly patients. This wealth of nursing experience has equipped me with the appropriate skills for my role and daily life at Mount Pleasant, where I work hard to ensure that those in my care lead happy and fulfilling lives, whilst maintaining choice over the care and support they receive.
I am passionate about delivering great care and firmly believe in the importance of maintaining strong relationships with residents, their relatives and friends. Understanding the important contribution that these relationships make to the successful running of a care home and making Mount Pleasant a home for our residents to live well in.
I look forward to meeting those that wish to find out more about our warm, welcoming community.
