I have worked in care for over 15 years in lots of different capacities. From a support worker to a service manager. I have also worked in many different aspects from young children to learning difficulties and even dementia. I find this range has given me a broad spectrum of knowledge when it comes to delivering the best care possible. I am an easy person to get on with and put my clients at ease very quickly after getting to know each other.
