Meet The Manager
Priscilla Jeebun is Registered Manager at Ash Court Care Centre.
As the Home Manager at Ash Court Care Centre, I am honoured to lead and inspire a team dedicated to providing exceptional care to our residents. With over 15 years of experience in the social care industry and a Bachelor’s degree in Business and Management, I have been a valued member of the Ash Court team since 2018. In 2021, I was promoted to the role of Deputy Manager, and in November 2022, I was appointed as the Home Manager. My expertise includes utilising the latest technology to enhance care delivery, and my passion lies in promoting the well-being and positive experience of our residents.
