Aura Care Living have restructured an expert, industry leading management team at Stratton Court Care Home in order to improve their services. This restructure has included the hiring of a new Care Home Manager who has an extensive background in Mental Health Nursing and brings her wealth of clinical knowledge and skills to the team.
