Meet The Manager

Samantha Lenihan is Manager at Halwill Manor Nursing Home.

With a deep passion for creating a warm and welcoming environment, Sam has developed a reputation for being a true leader. From managing staff to overseeing resident care, Sam has a keen eye for detail and a natural ability to manage multiple tasks with ease.

With a long background in healthcare, Sam brings a wealth of knowledge to her role as our Registered Manager. Sam stays up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices in the industry and is always looking for new ways to improve the care experience for our residents.

Are you caring for someone living with Dementia? Or has a family member reached the point where they can longer support themselves?

Are you struggling to provide the constant care and supervision that they need? If so, we can help.

The realisation that someone you’ve known and cared for over many years may not even recognise you can be very difficult to come to terms with.

You may well feel a mixture of sadness, frustration and even grief.

Add in the challenge of coping with their needs and the realisation that full-time care is now essential, and it’s easy to feel that you are somehow letting them down.

We’d like to reassure you that simply isn’t the case.

Choosing a home like Halwill Manor which specialises in the care of those living with dementia will be the best decision you could make for your loved one.
