Regional Care Director
As the Regional Care Director for the north, I am responsible for all types of care delivery to our customers - whether it be live-in care or our hourly service. My role involves ensuring that our carers deliver a consistent and seamless high quality of care to our customers. I manage a team of dedicated, hardworking people who strive to deliver a fantastic service. Following a highly successful career in welfare to work, recruitment and training, I wanted to look at a fresh challenge, and following some research and numerous conversations, I believed that the care sector would be a good fit and that I could easily transfer my skills and experience into this role.

Better than a care agency in Scunthorpe
-
We’re better at what we do than an agency ever could be because we care so much about our customers and carers. We’d never expect our carers to be self-employed like some agencies do, and we’d never charge our customers hidden fees for ‘matching’ you with a carer or referring you to someone else. We’ve always been transparent about our services and that will never change.

Fully trained carers in Scunthorpe
-
Our carers are amazing at what they do; we value them incredibly highly because without them our thousands of customers wouldn’t get the support they need to live their best lives possible in the home they love. Every day of the year our carers are with our customers and to enable them to manage their roles we train them well when they join us, although there are things that we can’t train that they need to have naturally, such as empathy and kindness. Because we’re fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission and Care Inspectorate Wales you can be confident in our high standards of care too.
