Working at Care UK in a home support role

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 joined Care UK in 2015 as a Night Team Leader, and I worked my way up to Deputy Manager and now Home Manager.

Before Care UK, I worked for another care provider as a Team Leader, but I took a year off when my husband passed away. I wanted to make a fresh start when I came back to work, and I’d heard good things from friends who worked at Care UK homes. Becoming a Home Manager here was the highlight of my career so far.

You need to be caring, understanding and passionate to do this role. Teamwork is also incredibly important. Laurel Dene is a big home and without the help of a great team around me, all working towards the same goal, my job would be impossible.

I look forward to continuing to progress the home forward and improve the lives of all the residents. Spending time with them is my favourite part of each day. They always have interesting stories to tell from their past!

When I’m not at work, I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren – although they love to come into the home and spend time with residents too!
