Karen Curle is Home Manager at Cavell Court.
I first became a Home Manager back in 1987, and I’ve worked in the public and private sector in older people’s services in organisations large and small.
I enjoy supporting the team at mealtimes. It’s my chance to fetch and carry for colleagues, or to simply sit and support a resident to enjoy their meal. People are relaxed and keen to chat, so there’s a nice atmosphere. I feel privileged to have the chance to share a story or a smile and to enhance a person’s day.
Away from work, I love cooking a delicious meal from scratch. I used to live in Italy where food is such a big part of everyday life. There’s nothing better than getting friends and family together to laugh, have fun and enjoy great food.
Cavell Court delivers round-the-clock residential and dementia care on a permanent and respite basis. This spacious, purpose-built home is all about enabling residents to continue to enjoy a fantastic quality of life.
Every member of the team is dedicated to delivering person-centred care and ensuring residents enjoy each day to the full, whether that’s taking part in activities and outings or helping out with small tasks around the home, from gardening to folding laundry.
Life at Cavell Court is all about comfort and luxury, which is why each bedroom is of a high standard, with an en-suite wet room. Residents can also enjoy excellent facilities, such as a contemporary café, cinema and hair salon, as well as lovely grounds.
