A career with Advinia means more than just a job — it’s the chance to make a real difference every single day. Whether it’s in care, hospitality, or support services, every role helps create a true sense of home for our residents.

Here’s what Richard, our Hospitality Development Manager, had to say about his journey with us:

“I started my career in palliative care, working across hotel services from housekeeping to kitchens. It was food, though, that showed me how much comfort, dignity, and joy a good meal can bring.

Since joining Advinia in 2021 as a Chef Manager, and now as Hospitality Development Manager, I’ve focused on raising standards in both food and hospitality. Through initiatives like B Happie, we’re showing how mealtimes and hospitality create joy, reassurance, and a sense of home for our residents.”

At Norwood Nursing Home - Advinia Healthcare, we were delighted to give resident Philip Stockwell – a former teacher, violinist, and Paisley choir member – an unforgettable experience through our Day to Remember framework.

Philip, his wife Kate, and their closest friends were whisked off to Glasgow’s City Halls to enjoy the West of Scotland Schools Symphony Orchestra. What made the day truly special was Philip being invited on stage to meet the young musicians, view the instruments up close, and capture a moment he’ll cherish forever.

A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful team for making this unforgettable experience possible. 💜
