Debbie Cullen
Home Manager
Hello, my name is Debbie and I am the Home Manager at Holmwood Care Centre. I have been working in care homes for 34 years. I started my career as a care assistant, and then went on to become a qualified nurse. Shortly after, I became a home manager. From a young age I have always enjoyed looking after and caring for elderly people.
Here, at Holmwood, we have a friendly and dedicated team which feels like one big family. Each day is unique and rewarding.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my family and friends as well as going on long walks with my dog.
Kim Howard
Administration Manager
Hello, I’m Kim. I have been the Administration Manager at Holmwood for 18 years and have previously worked in Personnel Admin before taking time off to have a family.
I enjoy working in an environment that is challenging and rewarding, which is why I love Holmwood! The residents are wonderful here and I love being a part of their lives every day. There is a good team at Holmwood with quite a few members of staff who have been here for a number of years. This makes for a solid base for our work at Holmwood.
I look forward to continuing in my role and ensuring that Holmwood is a happy home for everyone.
In my spare time I enjoy being with my family.
Leah Cullen
Lifestyle Lead
Hello, I’m Leah.
I have been working in care homes for 7 years and have always loved being around the elderly, learning their stories and helping with anything they need.
I’ve worked very closely with residents that have been diagnosed with Dementia and Alzheimer’s.
Holmwood is a beautiful home and is very welcoming to everyone who comes into this building.
The residents will always be a number one priority for me and I want to make them as comfortable as possible.
In my spare time, I enjoy singing and spending time with my cat Babs as well as my family and friends.
