Linda Ryan is General Manager at Red Oaks.
I have been a registered nurse for over 20 years. My passion for working with older people in a nursing home environment started with my first registered manager position in 2003. My career has also included positions such as a Practice Development Nurse and a Dementia Specialist. Before Barchester, I was a Director of Care for a luxury retirement village, commissioning both a nursing home and a domiciliary care service. This position involved managing, coaching and mentoring the registered managers.
I am proud of being able to make a difference to peoples' lives by providing high quality, person-centred care in a supportive learning environment within an open and fair culture.
My door is always open for a coffee (or tea) and a chat, whether that is for residents, relatives or staff members.
Red Oaks is a purpose-built home providing 24-hour nursing care to older people, including those living with dementia. We also have a number of assisted living apartments available, situated in Rayner Court. Our dedicated and experienced team are passionate about providing care that affords the best possible alternative for those who are no longer able to manage at home. Our approach to care is based upon personalised care-plans, which ensure that each person is treated with respect and their independence and choices are maximised.
We work hard to ensure that we provide a lifestyle full of choice and activities that are centred around residents' own interests, including regular trips out around the region, taking full advantage of the home’s mini-bus. The expertise of our caring team enables each resident to continue to do the things they enjoy for as long as they are able.
Red Oaks is ideally situated only a short distance from the centre of the tranquil village of Henfield, and set in 2.5 acres of formal gardens.
