Angela Christian
Home Manager
I have worked with The Future Care Group for over two years. Initially, as Deputy Manager at Albany Lodge where I enjoyed the challenge of overseeing a large successful team who were dedicated to caring for over 100 residents within the home. Most recently I have been promoted to become the home manager of Acacia Care Centre and look forward to working with the team to achieve overall good in our next inspection report. As a nurse, I know the importance of delivering the very best care possible. I feel it is most important to involve our residents in creating their care plans to enable us to provide the care they want and need. When I am away from work, I relax by spending time with my family and enjoy reading, cooking and walks.
Vilma Fernandez
Deputy Manager
I have over 30 years of experience in nursing and have been in management role in care establishments for about 10 years. I look forward to utilizing my wealth of expertise at the Acacia Care Centre. My focus is on writing very comprehensive care plans individually tailored to care needs in cooperation with the dedicated team members and residents and their families. I am passionate about supporting both the team and residents to achieve high quality care and supportive working environment.
Marta Kisiel
Lifestyle Lead
I joined the Acacia Care team in 2014, initially as a healthcare assistant. This role provided valuable insights into the unique needs and individuality of all our residents. In late 2020, I transitioned to the role of a lifestyle assistant, and this year, I am grateful to have assumed the position of Lifestyle Lead.
My inspiration to work with the elderly stems from a close relationship with my grandmother, and my passion for the well-being of others has been ingrained in me since childhood. I take pleasure in spending time with residents, engaging in conversations, and learning more about their lives. Discovering their interests, hobbies, and needs enables me to plan a diverse and engaging daily activities schedule. This approach ensures residents remain actively involved in social and uplifting activities.
While devising new ideas can be challenging, the reward comes when these ideas come together. Bringing a smile to a resident’s face is something I cherish and find immensely gratifying.
Ann Nash
Head of Housekeeping
I have worked with the Future Care Group for 15 years, initially as a member of the housekeeping team. My extensive housekeeping experience enabled me to progress to the Head of Housekeeping role. My priority is to keep the home clean and hygienic to high standard with assistance of hard-working team of housekeepers. I enjoy daily interactions with our residents and their families which makes my work worthwhile. In my free time I love spending time with my grandchildren. I also like playing bingo and going away for breaks.
Sleman Hassan
Maintenance Manager
I have over 20 years’ experience of working in maintenance engineering. Throughout my career I developed a wide range of skills in plumbing, electrical, locksmith, painting and general building maintenance. We have a great team here, at Acacia Care Centre. I particularly enjoy liaising with residents and their relatives which enables me to make repairs in a timely manner and keep our residents comfortable. Outside of my work life I like spending time with my family and skydiving.
