Tracy Wright is Manager at St Winifred's Dementia Residential Care Home.
I have worked in the care sector for over 30 years, building my career through a variety of rewarding roles including Care Assistant, Trainer, Quality Assurance and Registered Manager across nursing homes, care homes and domiciliary care services.
I also spent more than 10 years working as a teacher, and I have valued both career paths immensely. I joined the Nellsar family in February 2022 and feel incredibly privileged to lead such a dedicated and compassionate team who share my passion for making a positive difference in people’s lives every single day.
Welcome to St Winifred’s Care Home in Deal on the Kent coast; a specialist Nursing and Residential care home providing person-centred care for residents on either a short-term or permanent basis.
Over the years our original building has been extended into the 53 bed Home it is today, with spacious rooms and modern yet traditional design throughout.
Our Home Manager is supported by a team of highly trained Nurses, Carers and team members, all of whom have a unique part to play in supporting our residents and offering person-centred care. Many of our loyal team members have worked at St Winifreds for over 10 years. We wholeheartedly understand that our residents do not live in our workplace, we work in their home.

Infection control and the safety of both residents and staff often requires quarantine measures and the isolation of care home residents. To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.

Our Recreation and Well-Being Team take time to really get to know all about our residents’ interests and hobbies to create a calendar of events and activities throughout the week. No two days are the same and you’ll often find us being creative with arts and crafts, playing darts, having a flutter on the horses or relaxing with some gentle exercises. We also love nothing more than a good singalong, so we’re visited regularly by some fantastic entertainers and performers. We’re close to several local primary schools and it’s always a treat when the children come in to perform for us. It’s wonderful to see the interaction between the generations and their shared fun and laughter. |
