Great Oaks welcomes new care home manager

Registered nurse Sara Muslin has joined the team at Great Oaks in Bournemouth as care home manager.

Sara has been a registered nurse for more than 30 years and has vast experience in the care sector, having managed care teams for over 20 years. Sara has spent the past six years as a registered manager for care homes which specialise in nursing, residential and dementia care.

In her new role, Sara is responsible for all aspects of the day-to-day running of the home, ensuring that the highest standards of care are maintained and that the Care Quality Commission standards and guidelines are adhered to at all times.

During the first few weeks, Sara will take the time to get to know all of the residents on a personal level, seeing them regularly in order to deliver ongoing person-centred care. Each resident has a personal care plan covering the totality of their needs, which will be regularly updated and reviewed by Sara as part of this process.

Commenting on her new position, Sara said: “I am thrilled to be joining a team that is so welcoming and passionate about delivering a high standard of care to residents. The home’s values reflect how care should be delivered and how I myself, would want to be cared for.

“I am looking forward to being part of the very best care organisation in the south, which puts the health and wellbeing of residents at the heart of everything it does. I will also ensure the home remains a happy, safe place where residents thrive and the team are proud to work.” 

Great Oaks is the latest addition of an established family of care homes managed by Encore Care Homes, with two other care homes in Dorset and Hampshire. The 80-bed care home is fitted with state-of-the-art facilities, designed to enable staff to provide the highest standard of 24 hour, personalised care and ensure residents are comfortable and happy in their surroundings.
