Meet The Manager
Donna Rutherford is Registered Manager at Visiting Angels Fylde Coast.
In 2018 became a caregiver, and it wasn’t long before I joined an outstanding rated care provider, where I completed several qualifications in health and social care and also completed my training and education certificate – I spent time as a senior caregiver before progressing to the role of Assistant Manager and then becoming a Training & Development Manager. Each of these roles has deepened my love for our industry and has driven me to want to make a difference. This is exactly why I have joined Visiting Angels Fylde as their Registered Manager, so I am able to be part of a company whose mission is to create an environment where our carers can care more, our clients can live better, and their families can feel assured.
A company where we can begin to redefine the role of carers in society and by doing so, deliver a new standard of person-centred care.
Our caregivers are available to provide homecare Lytham St. Annes, Ansdell, Blackpool, Warton, Freckleton, Wrea Green, Kirkham and towns and surrounding towns and villages. It is important to our homecare service that our caregivers are local to you. This means that they are already part of your community. Firstly, by introducing you to local home care caregivers they will understand your area. Secondly, we are able to cover the rural and coastal areas as well.
