Jane Aitken is Manager at Lornebank Nursing Care Home.
I joined Hudson Healthcare in May 2026, having previously worked across the NHS and private sector, covering roles such as general manager, senior general manager and recently regional director. I qualified as a nurse in 2006 and have achieved my degree in nursing at Stirling University. Fifteen years of management experience has allowed me to bring experience that I am sure will benefit resident outcomes and make Lornebank a great home choice for the residents.
I am fortunate to have two grown-up children and four grandsons who live close by to me. I share my home with my partner and Baillie, who is my lovable boy pet Shih tzu.
Swimming and walking are how I enjoy my free time alongside reading the odd Danielle Steele novel.

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.
