Meet The Manager
Niccii Gillett is Registered Manager at Elmfield House.
Our Registered Manager at Elmfield House is Miss Niccii Gillett. She has a wealth of knowledge and experience having worked in Health and Social Care for over 21 years. Niccii has been our Registered Manager for over 7 years now and is a long standing member of the team. Niccii has a Level 7 QCF in Health and Social Care Management and she oversees a Senior Care Team who are all trained to at least Level 3 QCF/NVQ standard in HSC.
We are a family owned residential care home which caters for the needs of 18 elderly residents who have residential or dementia care needs. With just 18 residents, it allows us to give a much more personal service and it allows them to feel part of the ‘family’ at Elmfield.
We have been caring and looking after residents for 25 years. During which time we have seen many changes in both the caring system and Elmfield House itself. However, one thing will never change, our ethos to create a ‘home from home’ environment, where residents feel safe, secure and valued, just as they would in their own home. Independence is promoted and encouraged. It is our policy to involve residents in making as many decisions for themselves as possible. Every resident is provided and cared for with his or her individual needs in mind.

| Our Building and Facilities |
|---|
|
In recent years our residential and dementia care home has undergone significant renovations to improve the interior and physical appearance of the home. We have included a ground floor shower room, a new bathroom with a walk in bath, extended the kitchen and improved the laundry room. We then went on to add an additional 3 en-suite bedrooms, a larger lounge area, improved dining room, and new laminate flooring throughout the ground floor. And to top all of that, we put on a new roof. |
