Meet The Manager
Deepa Baldowa is Home Manager at Deanfield Care Home.
I began my journey at Deanfield Care Home in June 2023 as the Deputy Manager and subsequently it was a great privilege to progress to the role of Home Manager. With many years experience in healthcare and nursing, my goal is to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere and to ensure that residents, their families, our staff and visitors all feel at home.
The wellbeing and dignity of the residents is paramount, and we constantly strive to make sure that they experience the highest quality of life and receive the very best support and compassion.
Please come and say hello when you are visiting your loved ones. Together, we can continue to make Deanfield a wonderful place for everyone.
Welcome to Deanfield Care Home in Glasgow, situated in the suburb of Penilee, just a fifteen-minute drive from the city centre. It’s easy to get to here by public transport, or via the M8 and the Home is close to local amenities. We’re also a short distance from the Queen Elizabeth University Hospital.
We take care of Residents living with a range of needs, including dementia and Parkinson’s. The Home also offers convalescence and palliative care, and our care and nursing teams work side-by-side. Our aim is to ensure Residents can live happy, meaningful lives, safe in the knowledge that we’re here to support them in any way we can.

Autumna has invited care providers to evidence the infection control measures they are carrying out, above and beyond those laid out by the government, in order to keep residents, staff and visitors safe.

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.
