Lauren Covey
Branch Manager, Redhill
I have worked for Prestige Nursing & Care in Redhill for over four years. I left the retail industry to work within a more fulfilling role. I joined Prestige as Care Co-ordinator which helped me gain an in-depth knowledge about the provision of high-quality home care. I then became a Care Manager and was seconded to temporarily manage the Prestige branch in Dartford.
Since working at Prestige I have continued to develop my skills and qualifications and am proud to have achieved a Skills First Level 3 Diploma in Business Management, Skills First Level 5 Diploma in Leadership for Health and Social Care and Children and Young People’s Services – Adults Management. I am currently working towards Skills First Level 5 Diploma in Operational and Departmental Management.
I am now responsible for managing the Redhill branch. My heart has been, and always will be in care and I have a huge passion for ensuring people get the very best care and my team is supported to deliver the high standards of care we expect at Prestige in Redhill.
VANESSA BROOKS-OKE
REGIONAL CLINICAL LEAD
I began adult nursing in 2004 having previously spent around 20 years as a veterinary nurse in mixed practice. Since qualifying with a Dip. HE Nursing (Adult) from Plymouth University, I have gone on to gain experience in surgical urological care, including brachytherapy and hormonal implantation for control of prostate and bladder cancers. I also spent six years working in adult intensive and high dependency care for the NHS. This discipline involves care of the critically unwell involving expert and close monitoring of chemically induced coma care.
Throughout my career, I have developed and maintained a passion for teaching and have coached and mentored many members of both professional and allied staff in order to reach their potential. In my spare time, I actively volunteer for Cancer Research UK, and am Vice-Chairlady for the Bridgwater Friends branch in Somerset, which despite being small is very busy and the branch has recently celebrated raising one million pounds for the main charity.
As a Regional Clinical Lead with Prestige, I provide professional leadership and operational management to the registered nursing workforce, across the South West Region. Working alongside our expert regional nurse team I support all aspects of complex care provision ensuring every client receives compassionate high-quality care which is evidence based and aligned with best national practice guidance.

This regional group is affiliated to Rare Dementia Support (RDS), a world-leading UK-based service provided by the UCL Dementia Research Centre (DRC) funded by The National Brain Appeal.

ANGELA STRACHAN
REGISTERED NURSE
I always knew I wanted to be a children’s nurse even when I was in primary school. I achieved this in 2000, when I completed my Registered Nursing (Child) qualification at Kings College, London.
My first role as a nurse was at Great Ormond Street Hospital where I worked on a general neonatal surgical unit specialising in gastro-intestinal conditions. After gaining valuable experience, I then joined two nursing agencies in London providing both support in complex care packages and various London hospitals in the private and NHS sectors on surgical and medical wards. In 2012, I joined a Children’s Community Team in London, where I worked for seven years. It was a hugely rewarding role, with much of my time spent providing care and treatment for children with cancer.
The experience I gained as a Children’s Community Nurse has proved invaluable in my current role at Prestige Nursing & Care in Shrewsbury as I am able to support our teams of carers and nurses, as well as the children and families we care for to ensure they get a high-quality and competent nurse-led service.
SUE HOLLIDAY
REGISTERED NURSE
I qualified as a Registered Nurse in 1994 at East Surrey Hospital and as a Paediatric Nurse in 2000 at Kingston and St George’s University Hospitals. I have gained a wealth of experience in a variety of settings firstly in adult surgical nursing, then working in the outback of Australia providing paediatric nursing in the community, paediatric care in a hospice and on general paediatric wards. My areas of interest include oncology and high dependency. I have always enjoyed teaching and have been a mentor to many colleagues.
I joined Prestige in April 2018 where I have been given the opportunity to develop in my role. As the Paediatric Clinical Lead and Paediatric Safeguarding Lead for the company, I am particularly proud of the work we have done to further develop our paediatric training.

Professionalism and compassionate – from the management team to the carers. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone who needs peace of mind, trust and quality of care.”

COST OF OUR CARE IN REDHILL
The cost of our care is dependent on the level of care and support you require. If you are receiving our hourly care service, the overall cost will be determined by the number of visits and frequency of visits to you at home. Our experts will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your needs at your home, or in East Surrey Hospital if you are awaiting discharge to truly understand what you need and therefore how much care at home will cost.
