Chloe Chambers is Manager at Royton House Care Home.
I have 19 years of experience in the care industry, starting out as a care assistant and advancing through roles as I gained experience and qualifications.
My background in care has allowed me to continually build on a foundation of practical skills and develop a caring and compassionate team. Our team prides itself on delivering person centred care, focusing on what residents can do to remain as independent as possible for as long as possible.
My goal is to enable residents to celebrate their abilities by focusing on holistic care and working with multidisciplinary teams to improve their quality of life. At Royton House, we are dedicated to creating an inclusive home, where everybody feels valued, safe and respected! We look forward to welcoming you.
Royton House is a welcoming care home in the peaceful Shaw suburb of Oldham. Our purpose-built home provides specialist dementia, residential and nursing care, as well as support for palliative, convalescence and respite needs.
Guided by Christian values and respect for cultural diversity, our care plans are tailored to each individual. We focus on enhancing quality of life, supporting independence, dignity and well-being. Care at Miller House celebrates each resident’s unique gifts and lifestyle, marking a new chapter in life rather than an end.
