Home care in Solihull

Enabling someone to live in their own home makes such a difference in their life, to be surrounded by their memories, is something that cannot be replicated. To be able to do this every day is what gets me up in the morning.

I have been on quite the journey with Home Instead progressing from Care Professional, to Senior, to Deputy Care Manager, to Care Manager, most recently I have achieved my registration with CQC and am a now Registered Manager and Head of Operations.

It is my job to ensure all Clients have their desired times for visits and are covered by Care Professionals with similar interests. I started at Home Instead in 2020 as a Care Professional. In my spare time, I enjoy football, cooking and being involved in a band.

My role is to oversee the recruitment and training of our wonderful Care Professionals, ensuring they share our passion to provide the highest standards of care. I stay connected to our Care Professionals to ensure they are happy and thriving within their role.

I joined Home Instead in May 2018 as a Care Professional. I progressed on to deliver our Dementia Care training to our Care Professionals who would like more in depth knowledge about dementia. Before progressing to deliver induction training to our new Care Professionals.

I started my journey within a nursing home at the age of 18 whilst attending college to obtain my Level 2 & 3 Health and Social Care qualification. I have just completed my last year at Open University to achieve an Honours degree in Health and Social Care.

I started as a Care Professional and now work with the care team to ensure we deliver excellent care to our clients. I oversee the day-to-day running of the office but also like to stay connected with our Care Professionals ensuring moral and well-being needs are always met.

I started working in Home Care when I was 18 and am now on the recruitment side of the role. I interview and recruit new Care Professionals. I love working with and meeting new people, I use my caring nature to assure they are comfortable with the job and are enjoying it.

My role is to cover the recruitment process. I ensure that all of the people that we take on meet the same passion for high-quality care. I look after our candidates through their recruitment journey, as well as making sure all necessary checks are taken care of.

I was inspired to get involved with Care at Home after watching my Grandmother decline so quickly after going into what was supposed to be one of the UK’s best Residential Homes. I know that if Home Instead had existed in those days her final years would have been joyful.
