Meet The Manager
Sara White is Care Home Manager at Meadowside Care Home.
I love working at Meadowside care home and seeing the difference that we make to our residents’ lives. I am impressed daily by the dedication of the staff team who go above and beyond to ensure residents receive the highest level of care. Residents are at the heart of what we do and we always ensure that we are working in a person centred way, ensuring positive outcomes for the individuals we support.
Located in the heart of North Finchley, Meadowside Care home offers first class residential care for older people. Our dedicated team provides person centred care to meet the needs of every resident; whether they have mobility issues, are living with dementia, or simply need a helping hand from time-to-time.
Our recently-refurbished 68 bed home offers the highest standard of living, while keeping residents safe and secure. All our homes come fully-furnished and have en-suite bathrooms and upgraded communication facilities, that includes movement sensors and a new nurse call system.
Situated near Woodside Park station in North Finchley, Meadowside Care Home offers all the benefits of living close to local shops and services, while providing calm and peaceful surroundings for the residents.
