Trusted to care

A closely-knit team of managers, carers, nurses and support colleagues – and each of us is dedicated to your loved one’s care, health and wellbeing.

As home manager, the most important part of my role is to make sure residents are well and feel safe. It is a role that takes a lot of strength and a level head. It also needs you to be fair and impartial.

Being able to spend time with residents and their friends and relatives is one of my favourite parts of the day. It is wonderful to see residents smile. It also fills me with pride to know that families trust us to care for their loved ones.

I have a level five qualification in management and leadership, but I’ve also worked in care for 25 years. During that time, I was nominated by Plymouth City Council as a leader in care, which was a career highlight. I chose to join Care UK because it feels like an innovative organisation.

Outside of work, I really value my family time, it really is the best thing ever.
