Meet The Manager
Dorothy Pye is Home Manager at Llys Herbert.
As a Home Manager, my role is to support the team to deliver a high standard of care for residents.
I’m a registered nurse and have experience in management roles. I joined Care UK because its values of caring, passionate and teamwork mirrored my own.
In this role, it’s important to have compassion, empathy, enthusiasm and a sense of humour. You also need to be motivated and be a good all-around team player.
I love that every day is different, bringing new challenges and rewards. My favourite part of the day is walking around the home before I leave and seeing the relationships between colleagues and residents. Seeing colleagues I’ve supported over the years developing and progressing in their careers gives me the greater pleasure.
Llys Herbert is a new purpose-built luxury care home in Cardiff. The dedicated team provide personalised residential, respite and dementia care for up to 75 older people.
Each bedroom has its own en-suite wet room and is individually decorated and beautifully furnished. The home features all the ingredients for a superb lifestyle under one roof, including a bar, hair and beauty salon, cinema and coffee shop. Outside, the lovely landscaped gardens offer a variety of seating areas, accessible pathways and raised planters – perfect for keen gardeners.
The team learn all about your loved one's personality, life story and interests so they can tailor all aspects of their care – from activities to menus – to suit their needs and wishes.
