Meet The Manager
Charlotte Levin is Home Manager at Ambleside.
I began working for Care UK in 2017, and it was evident from my first day that Care UK has a strong ethos and is passionate about delivering high standards of care. Care UK is continually expanding and has many support teams available.
Before joining Ambleside, I was the deputy manager at Scarlet house.Prior to Care UK I held a number of roles at a domiciliary care and live-in care provider.
As Home Manager, it’s important to be a good listener, approachable, accommodating, motivated and have high standards.
My favourite part of the day is spending time with the residents and making a difference to their lives. It’s fantastic to see residents happy and smiling. Making a positive impact on their lives makes the stresses of the job worth it, and I look forward to continuing fulfilling residents’ lives at Ambleside.
Ambleside is a purpose-built Care UK home in Stratford-upon-Avon. The care home provides professional and personalised residential care, as well as short-term respite care and sensitive end of life care.
The superbly decorated interiors include a coffee shop, hair and beauty salon, cinema and spacious en-suite bedrooms, many of which open onto large, secure gardens. Other rooms have stunning views over the surrounding countryside.
The dedicated team believe that moving into a care home is just another part of life, and they are passionate about supporting residents to enjoy a wonderful, fulfilling lifestyle. With easy access to surrounding towns, residents can enjoy a rich cultural heritage on days out.
