Meet The Manager
Fiona Yurteri is Care Home Manager at Southlands Place.
We provide quality residential, nursing and dementia care on a permanent and short stay basis. I have been at Southlands Place for over two years and am proud to have been promoted from Deputy Manager to Home Manager in that time.
As a registered general nurse, I started out my career at Hurstwood Park Neurological centre working in the intensive care unit specialising in brain trauma and injury, supporting patients with Neurological deficits. From there I transferred my skills into working with residents living with dementia. I have previously managed Nursing Homes and supported the needs of a diverse range of residents.
As Home Manager it is important to me that our residents receive the care and respect that they deserve and that they see this as their home and family. Everyday myself and my team want to make a difference to our resident’s lives, seeing a smile on their face and laughing makes everything worthwhile.
Ship ahoy! Don’t settle for any port in a storm, but find a luxury berth at the stunning Southlands Place care home in Bexhill-on-Sea in East Sussex. It’s close to Hastings and Eastbourne and all that the Sussex Heritage coast has to offer.
With a view of the coast from our upper floor, this first-class care home offers all the amenities that you would expect. All ensuite rooms, a café, hair salon and barbers, cinema and private dining room all make this feel like a cruise on land. Any landlubbers though will enjoy the landscaped gardens, ideal to host visiting family and friends in the summer months.
Our care home in Bexhill-on-Sea offers top-quality dementia, residential and nursing care to residents on a permanent or short-term basis.
Engaging daily activities keep the mind sharp and creative, or you can unwind with a good book in one of our quiet areas. There are plenty of spaces to welcome visiting friends and family, and we also provide trips out to local shops, cafés, and places of local interest.
