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 qualified as a nurse in 2011 and have worked in various roles during my nursing career. This has enabled me to gain the experience and knowledge that I have today and to be in the privileged position of managing Foxland Grange.

My roles have included working in hospitals, in a quality team, developing practice for nurses and in a complex care in a nursing home. Delivering the best quality care is at the heart of what I do.

I do my utmost to ensure that everyone feels valued, listened to and supported with their needs and wishes. I love to get to know each person in my care and have a friendly chat with their family and friends, so please come in and say hello!
