Meet The Manager
Heather De-Ninis is The Home Manager at Queen Elizabeth Park Care Home.
Heather De-Ninis has worked in the care sector for over 36 years and in that time has amassed a wealth of care home experience.
Heather has developed a deep understanding of all the essential elements that create a loving care home environment after working in a variety of hands-on roles herself, from housekeeping and catering to maintenance, before taking her first position as a carer.
Heather says: “I love to give back and care for the elderly. I take immense pride in my home and am very proud of what my team and I have achieved in giving our residents a better quality of life.”
In creating that home-away-from-home atmosphere that is so appreciated by residents and their families, Heather, an avid baker, often brings in homemade jams and cakes for her residents and the team to enjoy. She also brings her beloved pet dog, Chumlee, to work every day, who all the residents adore!
When it comes to delivering exceptional care with love and a deep sense of compassion, the amazing people who form our Queen Elizabeth Park team, in Guildford, are everything.
Here at Queen Elizabeth Park Care Home, we will care for your precious loved one with the same tenderness and kindness shown to our own family members.
Through a reassuring touch of the hand or a light embrace, we provide comfort and a sense of safety day and night, caring for our cherished residents whilst giving gentle encouragement to build confidence and independence wherever possible.
To us, these things are second nature, assisted by our detailed knowledge of each person we care for and born by an intense desire to help and strong caring values amongst our team members.
The depth of our knowledge goes way beyond our training and awareness of each person’s medical and physical needs. Whilst these are crucial elements to ensure we are able to provide good care, it is our detailed understanding of who each special individual is now, who they were, and what hopes and dreams they have for their future that enables us to provide exceptional care

| Activities Are So Important |

|
Our residents’ ongoing health and wellbeing is extremely important to us and we recognise that keeping active, both mentally and physically, whilst maintaining a sense of purpose and meaning are key to individuals’ happiness, contentment and joy. In partnership with our residents and those closest to them, our dedicated lifestyle team develops a varied programme of meaningful activities, events and celebrations which are personalised to individuals’ likes, dislikes, abilities and care needs as well as aspirations and dreams for the future. Activities are scheduled to suit each resident’s specific needs or requests, meaning we have a large variety of in-home events to suit all stages or abilities. This ranges from bingo, choir, arts and crafts to knitting, baking, movies and quizzes. Visits from our favourite entertainers are also highly popular, with residents and team members alike joining in with our much-loved sing-a-longs! Our whole team supports our residents to rekindle interests and hobbies, whilst also gently encouraging them to try new things they might enjoy, either as part of a group of friends, on a 1-2-1 basis and in their own room, if they prefer. |
