Inverurie care home appoints new manager

Grove Care Home in Kemnay has announced the appointment of new care home manager, Moira Taylor.

Grove Care Home, part of leading care provider Meallmore, is a 40-bed facility, caring for residents with a range of conditions and needs, including dementia and palliative care.

Moira started her career in nursing with the NHS 40 years ago, building up her clinical experience before moving to the private care sector.

She joins Meallmore with over 15 years of managerial experience. Since 2015 she managed an Aberdeenshire home providing residential, dementia and nursing care for another care provider. She most recently spent the last three years as area manager for the same care group, looking after homes across the East of Scotland, supporting nine facilities from Edinburgh up to Dornoch.

Moira continues to build her knowledge base by gaining additional qualifications from Dundee University, and most recently completed a module on ‘Perceptions of a Care Home Nurse’, something she feels passionately about.

In her new role, Moira will oversee the management for Grove Care Home, including ensuring that staff continue to provide the highest quality care for residents.

Commenting on her appointment, Moira said: “Managing a care home is something I love doing and I’m fully committed to developing the home and our staff to reach their full potential. I’m also focused on ensuring the relatives of our residents feel part of the home, as I’ve found that this really makes a difference.

“Meallmore’s values fully align to my own; the company is kind, considerate and supportive not only to our residents, but to all our colleagues too. I’m looking forward to working with the team here, and my top priority is to provide high quality, personalised care for everyone who stays with us at Grove.”

Grove Care Home, located in Kemnay, Inverurie, is run by leading care home provider, Meallmore Ltd.
