Meet The Manager
Kaye Payne is Manager at Priory Residential Home.
I have been at The Priory care home since 2019 and worked in the care industry since 2004. We pride ourselves at The Priory on providing a home away from home environment for our residents and being one big happy family. I am very fortunate to work with a hugely dedicated and passionate team of staff who are all committed to providing the very best person centred care for each and everyone of our residents.
Welcome to The Priory Care Home in Romford, Essex, where our expert team provides person-centred care for Residents aged 65 and over. Our Home is within easy reach of London, and located within a leafy and peaceful setting.
Our care and support teams work side-by-side, to care for Residents with a range of needs, including those living with dementia and Parkinson’s. Our aim is to give Residents the opportunity to live happy, meaningful lives, safe in the knowledge that their wellbeing is our top priority.

Some of our 24 rooms are available for couples to share, so loved ones can continue living together at our Care Home in Romford.
