Meet The Manager
Diana Moraru – Manole is General Manager at Queens Court Care Home.
General Manager, Diana, recently joined the RCH family and brings with her a wealth of experience and knowledge from the Health and Social Care Sectors.
Diana has over 14 years of experience and started her career as a Health Care Assistant in a neurosurgical hospital and went to train and qualify as a Nurse in Romania. Since coming to the UK in 2016 as a Nurse, Diana has had various roles leading up to her first General Manager role in 2017.
Diana’s experience in developing a team’s knowledge and skills through leadership and mentoring is something she is passionate about.
Another part of her role as General Manager that she loves is, ‘inspiring a great team to make further differences to the lives of the residents, making sure they are living their best life possible and that everyone feels it is a nice place to live and work; because it’s a home from home.’
Situated in a pleasant residential area, Queens Care Home is purpose-built and carefully designed to support our residents to live happy, fulfilled and comfortable lives.
Our team care for our residents with the same kindness and warmth shown to members of their own family. Working closely together, they provide residential care, residential dementia care, nursing care and end of life care.

| Activities Are So Important |
|---|
|
Supporting our residents to enjoy every day living at Queens Court 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, art therapy, quizzes and movie afternoons, 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. Our team and residents also love visiting local attractions and getting dressed up for our themed days throughout the year — complete with themed menus and decorations! Our devoted activities teams work closely with their care team colleagues to really get to know each resident, so we’re able to tailor engaging activities around each individual’s interests, likes and dislikes. Whether it’s taking part in a favourite hobby or trying out something completely new, there is always something going on daily for people to enjoy, either as part of a group or on their own. Friends and family are also always welcome to come and join in the fun, and we have a range of opportunities throughout the year where we invite our local communities into our care homes to come and take part too. |
