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.

I’m delighted to be part of the Care UK team, bringing 26 years of experience in the care sector to my role. I trained as a Registered Mental Health Nurse (RMN) and have completed a range of additional training, including leadership, teaching and assessing, coaching, and mental health in older age.

I believe patience, resilience, and compassion are essential qualities in my role, as is taking the time to listen to both residents and colleagues.

My favourite part of the day is completing my walkarounds, as they give me the opportunity to spend time with residents and colleagues and see how everyone is doing.

What makes me most proud is seeing positive feedback and satisfaction from both residents and colleagues. For me, this is also the most important part of my role: ensuring people feel happy, valued, and supported.

Outside of work, I’m a big football fan, particularly Leeds United! I also enjoy travelling, spending time with my family and grandchildren, reading, and taking my dog out.
