Ana Ciobotaru is General Manager at Ridley Manor.
I'm a Registered Nurse by training and have also completed a Level 5 NVQ in Leadership and Management. I've been managing care homes since 2015 and am delighted to be supporting the team and residents at Ridley Manor, our beautiful High Wycombe care home.
I’m passionate about enabling the team to develop their skills and do their best work. One of my favourite parts of the day is walking around the home, catching up with residents and colleagues, finding out what support they might need, and seeing everyone laughing and joking. Seeing residents smiling and happy and living a fulfilling life in our High Wycombe care home is what it's all about for me.
One of the things visitors remark on when they come to Ridley Manor for the first time is the wonderful atmosphere. We're one big family. Everyone is treated as an individual, with love and warmth. We can't wait to welcome you to our wonderful care home so you can experience that atmosphere for yourself very soon.

I've been managing care homes since 2015 and am delighted to be supporting the team and residents at Ridley Manor, our beautiful High Wycombe care home. ![]() Hayley DevereauxHome Admissions AdvisorI was the first person to start when it was still being built, and since that point we have welcomed many residents from all different walks of life into our home which then becomes their home. The home is beautiful and has a wonderful atmosphere - as soon as you walk through the door you can just feel it and I love working here. The best part of my day is walking round in the morning and seeing all the residents. I continuously look forward to welcoming new residents and getting to know them, as well as meeting their families. I feel tremendously privileged to be working here, providing the best possible care. ![]() Alex VasileActivities Lead CoordinatorI am Alex, and I am delighted to be part of the team.

Between my dance moves and crafting, I work on entertaining my new friends, bringing joy and amusement into their day to day routine. ![]() Gabby VasileClinical Nurse ManagerI have over 31 years' experience as a registered nurse, and I am a very dedicated, kind, compassionate and reliable person. I have worked in an infectious diseases department as a Clinical Lead Nurse for 25 years, were I led an amazing team, working together to help eradicate and treat infectious diseases. For the last six years I have developed my career in the nursing home area. The home has definitely given me the opportunity to work in a stimulating environment that brings out the best in people. ![]() Lynette Lovell-ShippeyClinical Nurse ManagerI am a registered nurse with over 20 years' experience providing care in the community, hospital setting, and with older people and individuals living with dementia.

Working here is extremely rewarding - I love the residents and every day I see them, my passion for my job grows just like a flower. I love gardening especially since I built my own greenhouse. I love being outdoors and enjoy going cycling. ![]() Taylor-Drew ThomsonSenior Care AssistantBeing a carer isn't something that is just a job to me - being a carer is walking into the home every day and looking after residents who are very much my family. I have met and looked after the most interesting and amazing residents that have shown me a whole new perspective on life. Working here has given me the opportunity to discover my passion and enhance my skills in ways that I would never have before. Every day is a different but good day, and I always look forward to working with my team and being taught valuable skills. ![]() DawnResident AmbassadorI’m Dawn and I am a resident here and have been here for 2 ½ years. Originally I came from Sussex and then moved to Marlow in 1964 for my husband’s job. My husband sadly passed away in 2017. The house and my large garden were too much too cope with on my own, so I spoke with the family and decided to move here as it is close to Marlow and has meant I could keep in contact with my friends. I have enjoyed my time living here, I have been very happy and had the opportunity to meet lots of other people. ![]() CyrilResident AmbassadorI am 87 years old, I was born in the Peak District, I studied and became a chartered engineer and did this for most of my life, I became the company director of Taylor Woodrow and was there for many years, retiring at the age of 60 years, I kept busy in my own home, I was a very keen gardener and was able to carry out all our own home maintenance, I became a member of the Downley Commons Preservation Society, I moved here just over a year ago with my wife Ellen who I have been married to for 67 years. I am the resident ambassador my role is to be an ear for the residents and to chat to them and resolve any problems, although I must say there are very few. |
