Meet The Manager
Sue Stephens is Registered Manager at Immacolata House.
Sue started her Nursing career in 1989, first as a student nurse then moving to her first post on a stroke ward. Sue continued to work in various nursing roles.
An opportunity then arose to manage a home, who at the time were a small company in (Taunton Somerset). Sue managed the home for 10 years. Her next move involved turning failing homes around and building their reputations, a position she held for over 6 years.
In 2015 Sue joined Notaro Homes, her reason was she viewed the company as small enough to be personal, yet large enough to be effective and combined with an excellent local reputation. Sue has had a keen interest in Dementia care since 2009 which she continues to develop. She also holds a teaching qualification and enjoys mentoring students both pre and post-registration.
