Park House Partnership boosts Occupancy

Marilyn Andrews in the lead role as Care Home Manager partnering with Kate Fox, is working well and has created outstanding occupancy at Eastgates Park House Care Home.		Marilyn has worked for Eastgate for a number of years, most recently as a successful training manager, helping to progress many Eastgate careers & carers with their qualifications. A return to a 'hands on' role as Care Home Manager seems to be a rewarding change.
