Meallmore has appointed Moira Taylor as care home manager of Grove Care Home in Kemnay, Aberdeenshire, a 40-bed facility, caring for residents with a range of conditions and needs, including dementia and palliative care.

Taylor started her career in nursing with the NHS 40 years ago, building up her clinical experience before moving to the private care sector. She has more than 15 years of managerial experience and since 2015 has managed an Aberdeenshire home providing residential, dementia and nursing care for Sanctuary Care. She spent the past three years as an area manager for Sanctuary, looking after homes across the East of Scotland, supporting nine facilities from Edinburgh up to Dornoch in the Highlands.

Taylor 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.”
