Ali

Home Manager

Hello, my name is Ali and I am the Home Manager at Derwent Care Home. I thoroughly enjoy the daily challenges that come with my role and take pride in recruiting a strong team that delivers high-quality care to our residents. It brings me great satisfaction to add value to our care services and enhance the lives of our elderly residents, enabling them to lead fulfilling lives.
I am passionate about providing the same level of care to our residents as I would expect for my own parents. With over 10 years of experience in independent care companies, I have worked with adults who have acquired dementia, challenging behaviour and nursing. I hold qualifications as an Assistant Practitioner, Dementia Championship, Leadership, and Management.
Making a positive difference in people's lives is my biggest achievement throughout my career. I am committed to continuous development to ensure that the individuals I care for receive the best possible care and life enrichment in their later years.

I cannot recommend this place more, the staff are amazing - my Nan was looked after and loved by all staff and they made her feel like family. I visited every day and they always welcomed me in and answered any questions I had. The manager is such a lovely man, he went above and beyond to make nans last days as comfortable as possible. I will always remember all the staff and will always be in their debt for how amazing and caring they all are, thank you again and I will still pop in and see you all and say hello to the residents who I also became close to.
