meet the manager
Hello, I'm Elaine
Elaine Payne
Registered Nursing Care Home Manager
Freshford Cottage Nursing Home
My interest in the care sector began in my early teens, when I cared for my elderly grandmother. At sixteen, my career in Health & Social Care began when I became a carer in a home in Worthing. I qualified as a RGN in 2004, specialising in elderly care, having gained experience in acute medical wards and in the community.
At Freshford Cottage, my main priority is that our residents continue to receive person-centred care tailored to their unique wishes and needs. This is strongly aligned to the company values. I aim to bring my wealth of experience to this role together with my energy, drive, and passion for elderly care. I also have the support of a fantastic team and together we will help our residents live happier, healthier, and more fulfilling lives. Hopefully with the aim of establishing Freshford Cottage as an outstanding provider of residential, nursing, and dementia care.
what makes us special
Fresh by name, fresh by nature.
Freshford Cottage is all about fresh air and new ideas for our residents. And who better to ask for a fresh perspective on things than a younger generation? Our residents love socialising with people of all ages and regular visits from schools and nurseries has such a positive effect on both old and young.
