Meet The Manager
Emma Pickett is Home Manager at Stones Place.
Emma has over 30 years of experience of working in Care Homes. She started out as a bank care assistant and over the years worked towards becoming a Care Home Manager. Emma has been the Registered Home Manager at MHA Stones Place since December 2017.
Stones Place care home in Lincoln, originally a country manor house, is situated next to Hartsholme Lake, a beautiful country park which is accessible for wheelchair users. MHA made major additions in 1972 and the home was subsequently refurbished in 1996, with the rooms increased to 42 in 2004.
Stones Place was opened just three months ahead of Maidment Court in Poole. At the time, then MHA Chairman Sir George Martin, expressed “pride in my church for establishing these wonderful rest houses for people in their old age."
We are committed to providing alternative therapies such as reflexology, which does much to help promote the well-being of each individual, while our Chaplain offers pastoral support to all, whatever their beliefs.
Funded through charitable support, every MHA care home also prides itself in being able to offer unique and memorable opportunities and activities for residents to quite literally help them 'seize the day'.
Whatever you need and whatever you want, Stones Place promotes physical and mental wellbeing for each individual.

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.

We encourage our residents to furnish their own rooms as they wish. This could be as simple as hanging a couple of their favourite pictures on the wall, but they’re also welcome to bring their own comfy chair, or anything that makes them feel at home. The most important thing is for everyone to feel comfortable, happy and settled. Our 42 single bedrooms are fitted with a call system which can be operated by a hand control or a pendant depending on personal preference. All floors are secured by keypad coding to ensure that residents are safe and secure at all times. |
