Samantha Rose-Taylor is The Home Manager at Whitby Court Care Home.
Our focus is on providing quality care in a safe and comfortable setting. Whitby Court was the town's first purpose-built ecological care home and includes a biomass boiler, solar panelling, LED energy saving lighting and underfloor heating throughout to minimise our carbon footprint.
Every last detail, from the layout and furnishings through to facilities such as a residents' kitchen and a sensory room have been carefully managed, helping us to create an environment where the highest standards of care and comfort are paramount.
Whitby Court offers care for people looking for residential, dementia or nursing care.
Our residents are individuals and we support them with their needs in a happy and cheerful way. Our teams are the key to our success. We employ the very best people, and they are encouraged to fulfil their potential in every way, including supporting them to become our future nurses and managers.
