About the role
We’ve expanded our presence in Weymouth with the acquisition of Weymouth Manor, a new 66-bed luxury care home, complementing our long-established Queen Charlotte Care Home. At Kingsley Healthcare, family values and dignity-led, person-centred care are at the core of everything we do.
