She has achieved all NVQs in health and social care from 2 to 4 and up to a Diploma level 5 in Leadership and Management.
She is a very interactive manager and loves nothing better than to sit and chat with each of the residents that we care for at Windsor house. Her aim is that each and every one of them feels like part of our family.
She is very cheerful and positive and leads by example, to deliver the highest standard of care possible.
