Every morning I look forward to coming into work. The team, Manager and Deputy are all very friendly, helpful and easy to approach.

Our team has good communication and we respect each other, which is why we enjoy our jobs and are happy in the workplace.

I support the Nurses by providing clinical support, such as assisting with administering medication. I also help residents with grooming, hygiene and more to make sure the residents are very well looked after.

This is what I love about the Group as I have received lot of training. We are always up to date with our training and e-learning to ensure we are efficient and have the skills and knowledge to do our jobs. I am also a Dementia Champion, which involved completing a dementia programme.

Family! That is the first thing that I think of because this is my second home and I treat the team and residents like my family.  

Caring and respectful. The team are respectful to each other, which is the most important thing in a work environment. We’re also very caring to our residents.

For those who are consider a job in a care home, I think the most important thing is to always give your heart to the job.
