Meet The Manager
Angela Baxendale is Manager at Bispham Gardens.
Angela has over 35 years of care experience across different settings. Qualified to Level 5 in Health and Social Care, Angela’s main interests and experiences are in managing care homes housing elderly, young, and frail residents.
“I am 100% committed to providing a high-quality service and keen to work closely and in partnership with the staff, residents, relatives, and significant others to benefit the residents in the home.”
Angela and her staff team have undergone extensive checks prior to employment to ensure that they have the skills and qualities we require when working with vulnerable people. They are trained in health and safety, basic first aid, abuse awareness (safeguarding), administering medicine, infection control, and the care certificate, as well as other bespoke training as required.
Located in a quiet residential area in Blackpool, Glenholme Bispham Gardens is for mature and older people with care needs looking to achieve a relaxing lifestyle and retirement. Glenholme Bispham Gardens is a 52-bed care home with a new 24 room expansion opened in early 2021. Care Staff are skilled in meeting specialist needs, including nursing, dementia and end-of-life care.
Glenholme is passionate about delivering safe, individualised care and support to promote independence, choice and inclusion. We work hard to provide the support we would want for our own family members. The team at Bispham Gardens is able to support individuals with diverse needs and we support and care for both local authority and self-funded residents.

Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.

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.
