Meet The Manager
Nichola Birkett is Home Manager at Regency Care Centre.
“My passion is end of life care and ensuring that residents are advocated for and families experience support at the worst time.”
Nichola has worked in the Health and Social Care sector for 17 years and has been with Regency for four years. Nichola comes from a family of nurses and believes this was her calling in life.
"As the Registered Manager, I enjoy having the opportunity to make meaningful changes to the service that directly affects the health optimisation of the residents in my care."
"I worked as a hospital auxiliary for the first part of my career. Then I went on to complete my nurse training. I worked a registered mental health nurse across a variety of hospital settings, before working the private sector in 2015. In 2016, I took the role of Deputy Home Manager at Regency. After a short period, I became the registered Home Manager."
A purpose-built home situated within easy reach of local shops and amenities, Regency Care Home features fantastic ensuite bedrooms, wonderfully landscaped gardens and a wealth of shared spaces for residents to enjoy.
Our highly trained and experienced staff deliver care in line with each resident’s own unique and tailored care plan. This prioritises their physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing at all times.
