New Management Team At The Helm Of Egerton Manor

A new management team has been established at Egerton Manor care home located on Blackburn Road in Bolton, with Joanne Morton appointed as manager and Katie Dorning as deputy manager.

Both hugely knowledgeable and highly regarded at Egerton Manor, Joanne was previously the deputy manager at the home, whilst Katie was previously Head of Care.

Making an immediate impact, Egerton Manor has been rated ‘good’ in all areas following a recent CQC inspection at the home. The report confirmed that Egerton Manor was well led, safe, effective, caring and responsive, with residents ‘treated with kindness and compassion’ and ‘an open and transparent culture within the management team with a clear focus on providing good care’.

 Joanne has been involved with Egerton Manager since the care home opened in 2023. A qualified nurse, Joanne has spent much of her career in care working with the elderly, an area she is particularly passionate about. Having nurtured the team at Egerton Manor for the last couple of years, she is proud of the overall good rating the home recently received.

Joanne says: “Achieving a ‘good’ rating in all areas by the CQC is a great achievement and I am so proud of the whole team.  It demonstrates the outstanding efforts carried out daily by everyone at Egerton Manor, ensuring our residents are cared for with compassion and respect, and that they are able to live their lives as fully as possible.

“I am thrilled with my promotion; having been involved with Egerton Manor since day one it is an incredibly special moment to be appointed home manager.”

Having worked in the health and care sector for over 25 years, Katie’s experience and expertise is impressive. Her passion to provide the very best care is exceptional, she leads by example and encourages career development through mentoring and training.

Katie adds: “I joined Egerton Manor in 2024 and have worked my way up to deputy manager, with every step incredible rewarding. I am privileged to work alongside such a dedicated team. I remain committed to doing more and making a real difference to the lives of our residents, creating a warm, respectful and inclusive environment for all within the home.”

Dawn Collett, deputy managing director at Lovett Care, concludes:
“We are delighted to have promoted from within the company, furthering Joanne and Katie’s careers. Both are invaluable assets to Egerton Manor, and the recent CQC rating is testament to their hard work and commitment to the home, the residents and the staff.”
