Meet The Manager
Linda Watts is Home Manager at Trowbridge Oaks Care Home.
I have been a care home manager within Bupa for many years – working at care homes in Shockerwick, Chippenham and Cirencester. I joined the team at Trowbridge Oaks in January 2022.
Before I become a care home manager, I was deputy manager in one of our Bupa care homes for 2 years. I qualified as a registered nurse in 2002. I trained and worked in Salisbury Hospital and then moved into the care home sector. I always wanted to work in a care home due to my experiences as a young child visiting the care home which my aunt and uncle owned. In my teenage years, I helped care for my grandmother which further confirmed that I wanted to become a nurse. What I enjoy most about working in care services is being able to help others, whether that be residents, family members or my colleagues, and the satisfaction that this brings. No day is the same and I am grateful that I get to work in an environment that is person and family-centric.
We warmly welcome residents with a range of residential and nursing care needs. There's a real sense of community inside our home. Many of our team have been here for a long time; they enjoy getting to know our residents and building friendships with them.
The garden is fully wheelchair accessible and can be enjoyed by all residents on sunny days. A bright conservatory can be enjoyed whatever the weather. Many of the well-furnished bedrooms have garden views, and all have been furnished and decorated to create a homely feel.
Our chef prepares delicious meals and snacks for residents to enjoy in our social dining area or in the comfort of their own room.
Residents are encouraged to get involved with home life, whether helping with light gardening, or spending time socialising at mealtimes.
Please give us a call to discuss how we can help support you or your loved one. We look forward to welcoming you to Trowbridge Oaks soon.

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.
