Meet our registered manager

Frances Meehan

Fran is Heathside’s registered manager and co-owner. She leads a familiar team focused on knowing every resident as an individual and keeping families closely involved.

Being a smaller home means communication can stay direct and decisions remain personal.

What matters here

Familiar faces, comfortable surroundings and honest conversations.

Residents are supported to maintain routines, interests and relationships that matter to them. Families can speak directly with people who know their relative well.

We are always clear about what Heathside can safely provide. If another setting would be more suitable, we will say so.
