Meet The Manager
Jan Downes is Registered Manager at Hillcrest Manor Nursing Home.
I am a qualified Registered Mental Health Nurse (RMN) who specialises in dementia care, with over 18 years of experience in the private nursing sector.
Since joining Hillcrest Manor in January 2023, I have been proud to lead a dedicated team that shares my passion for delivering high-quality and transparent care, with compassion and professionalism.
Our residents are at the heart of everything we do. With a friendly, highly skilled staff, a commitment to best practice, and a home-from-home atmosphere, Hillcrest Manor offers a unique blend of family support, care, comfort, and community.
Hillcrest Manor Nursing Home near Shrewsbury is a 43-bed home set within the wonderful Shropshire countryside. The home was originally a farmhouse, and when first registered, it only consisted of the Manor House unit. We have built two additional buildings to accommodate more residents.
Our services include care for nursing residents, palliative care, respite care, and dementia care. At Hillcrest Manor, we provide high-quality, person-centred care for older people and those with dementia. We have a team of highly skilled staff who deliver caring services to individuals and support them in their day-to-day lives.
Our home has a warm and friendly atmosphere, which we'd love for you to experience for yourself. Use this simple form to book a visit today.
