Eve has single handily documented all the events and activities that take place at Brunel and created an easy read Quarterly newsletter for the residents. This has been recognised by our Hospital Manager Stephanie Coxon as “outstanding, amazing work and collaboration, what a wonderful newsletter well done”.
Lucas has been with the service for approximately one year. I am currently covering the service until a new Manager is appointed and within two weeks it is immediately apparent that he works with care, integrity and respect towards our service users in any activity that he undertakes. An all round superb attitude! We need more people like Lucas!
During our covid outbreak we had staff members off . Jumoke showed great flexibility and adaptability in changing day shifts to night shifts and working extra shifts to help to support the team and our residents
Rose has worked for Cygnet for more than 30 years, she works tirelessly for the benefit of our residents, she picks up extra shifts, mentors junior and new staff members. I consider her to be the back bone of Tupwood gate and a true unsung hero
Naveed is always working hard making sure all the health and safety is completed, helping all staff and service users whenever needed. Always makes effoort with his key working role. I would like to thank Naveed for all his hard work.
Caroline has been a super supportive manager to not only myself but the whole team. She takes her time to listen to problems you may be facing either within the workplace or outside of work. Thankful to have her as my manager, she listens when you need her to and offers advice when asked. You can also see she is the same with service users.
Jayne identified that a resident at Kirkside House had an error in their finances which was affecting their ability to access funds. Jayne worked relentlessly over weeks, consistently chasing those responsible to rectify the issue, showing amazing teamwork and dedication. Thanks Jayne.
Jade is the day team leader and when I get into work for my night shift she always asks how I have been, and just listens if that’s what I need. After a very hard year coming into work to her smiley face and genuine concern makes it a little easier to get through my shift even on harder days. Thank you, you lovely human being
During a time of need, due to staff shortages another senior came to help from another local Cygnet site. Having never given medication at Kirkside before he was apprehensive as some of our resident have specialised diets and needs. Dotty was extremely supportive towards the senior who was helping and worked very hard to help him throughout the shift!
We had a new resident moving in and needed their room repainting quickly. Dom came all the way over to us at the last minute, was so smiley and positive and has done an amazing job. The new resident is so pleased and Dom was a joy to work with!
Jorden has a good work ethic, is a strong team player and demonstrated a level of flexibility, to support the ward and her colleagues. Jorden is flexible in her approach and tailored her care to the patients individual needs.
Sarah has been a mainstay of the Grange/Lodge team over many turbulent periods. She is the steady and quiet support system for all staff and patients. She steps up where leadership is needed, and is often doing five things at once. Sarah puts her heart and soul in to the therapy here, and in the wider Cygnet context. She is a pleasure to work with.
