Care UK has appointed Carolann Hinson as the home manager to lead the team at Cuttlebrook Hall, on Stock Road, when it opens in September.

Having worked for Care UK for five years previously, before leaving to pursue a managerial role at another care provider, Carolann was keen to re-join Care UK as an integral part of the new home.

Barbara Howlett has been appointed as customer relations manager and will be the first point of contact for all potential residents and their relatives.
Bringing over six years’ experience to the role, she said: “I’m excited to be starting this new role and to help families find the right care and environment for their loved ones – picking a care home is an important decision and I’m keen to support future residents to feel informed, safe and welcomed when they walk through our doors.
“I can’t wait to start welcoming the first residents and making their experience as seamless as possible – from their initial contact to helping them settle into their new home.”
