Meet The Manager
Sally Cooper is Home manager at Deewater Grange.
I’ve worked for Care UK for many years. I joined Pinetum, another of its Chester care homes, in 2007 as a general nurse and was later promoted to senior nurse. After a couple of years away, I returned to the home as Deputy Manager in 2015 and became Home Manager in 2016.
I enjoy working in care homes. As a nurse, you can build relationships with the people you’re caring for and their families in a way that’s just not possible in a hospital setting where people come and go. I love the fact that we’re making a big difference to people’s lives and we get to see the evidence of that.
It’s a privilege to now be leading a brand new home for Care UK in Chester – Deewater Grange. I’m passionate about the potential of this stunning new home and of how we can make a difference to residents’ lives.
Deewater Grange is a purpose-built care home in Chester. The home provides a luxurious lifestyle as well as quality residential, dementia and nursing care on a permanent and respite basis.
The home has a café, hair salon, cinema and lovely landscaped gardens. What’s more, every bedroom is beautifully furnished and has its own en-suite wet room.
The team's approach to care is centred on enabling residents to get the most out of each day. The care, lifestyle and kitchen teams get to know your loved one extremely well, so that they can provide fully personalised care, activities and entertainment, and dining experiences. Residents are also welcome to have a role around the home to help them maintain a sense of purpose and independence.
