LifeCare Residences is delighted to announce the appointment of Alexandra Albu as the new Head of Care. In this pivotal role, Alexandra will oversee the clinical excellence and bespoke care services for The Albert Suites, London’s luxury care home, as well as the comprehensive care functions within Battersea Place, London’s first luxury retirement village overlooking the verdant expanse of Battersea Park.
Alexandra joins the team with a distinguished career in nursing and social care management. Originally from Romania, where she completed her studies in both Nursing and Tourism Management, Alexandra moved to London in 2016. While her early ambitions were set on Accident & Emergency medicine, her journey through the UK’s social care sector sparked a profound passion for building long-term, meaningful relationships with residents.
Most recently serving as a Home Manager with HC-One, Alexandra has cultivated a reputation for combining clinical precision with a compassionate, person-centred leadership style. Her philosophy is simple yet profound: excellence is achieved through the art of listening.
Alexandra Albu, Head of Care, commented:
“I am incredibly honoured to join LifeCare Residences. My mission has always been to provide the highest standards of care while creating a positive, lasting change in the lives of those I support. I fell in love with social care because of the unique privilege it affords us to make a genuine difference every single day. I look forward to fostering an environment of transparency and excellence, where my door is always open to residents and their families.”
