Meet The Manager
Abi Rose-Armstrong is Home Manager at Strathview Care Home.
I have worked at Strathview Care Home for more than 7 years and, prior to that, cared for my mum and worked in the private care sector. At Strathview, I've worked my way up from administrator to deputy Manager and finally home manager so I know the team well. I have always worked very closely with my team which is very important to me.
I enjoy seeing how even just the smallest interaction on a daily basis can lighten someone’s face and make a difference. I work with people who have given their all to everyone around them and now it is their time to be looked after.
I personally feel that development and training is very important for both the team and myself, every day is a school day! I am proactive in supporting my team to take up all the opportunities provided as we want to be able to offer the best experience possible to our residents, delivering quality care.
Strathview provides residential care for up to 25 elderly people in a modern purpose-built home with a real ‘home from home’ atmosphere. Ideally situated close to the shops and amenities of Auchtermuchty, Strathview’s location also affords wonderful views over the surrounding countryside.
Our small, friendly care home in Fife has developed an excellent reputation for care and has really become established at the heart of the local community. Strathview is arranged over a single floor for ease of access and benefits from the highest standard of décor and furnishings throughout. Our dedicated staff team work closely with residents, their families and loved ones, to ensure that each person’s care needs are understood and met. Just as importantly, our Activities Coordinator takes the time to learn about each person’s life history, working with that individual to ensure they are able to live as active a life as they wish.
