Liam went above and beyond when one of our Service Users left something in town on her leave. He spent his entire 1.5 hour break retracing her steps, going shop to shop, trying to find the item. He embodies so many of our values!
There were high numbers of staff isolating and a couple of Covid-19 cases in the past month. Ashie worked along with her Deputy to cover a lot of shifts.
Good leadership and commitment.
Phil is our walking tower of strength, no matter how hectic shifts are or how things don’t go with plan, he will find a way to make sure all deadlines are met. There is no job too hard on the shop floor for him. Stays calm and professional. Always.
Julie has had to lockdown Shear Meadow twice now in the last month due Covid-19 cases of staff and has had to cover long days and weekends. No complaints just got on with it. A real good leader.
Dave helped us at Harrogate during a difficult period for the team, running two supportive sessions which were very well received.
Dave was so accommodating and willing to help despite his own busy schedule which speaks volumes of his character.
After the loss of a staff colleague Jayne took it upon herself to pick the team up and bring a smile back to the unit. A simple thing of a Disney App creating each member of staff into a Disney Prince or Princess, all staff found this the amazing.
Camille is an inspirational role model to the staff here at Blackheath, nothing is ever to much, always smiling, always willing to help. She always puts every other person first & never expects anything in return. 1st in and last out everyday.
Lynda Willis worked alone on shift whilst short staffed, been going through a hard time personally but still comes in works hard daily and gets on with the job that needs doing.
Patients are at the centre of her focus and nothing gets in the way.
I would like to emphasize Amanda’s support towards my growth within the company. She encouraged me to explore my options, and she has been very flexible and supportive of my learning. I am very grateful to have her as my boss!
Lisa is very proactive in planning events for the service users at Beckly. She has helped to organise activities such as BBQ’s, the Pride event and the Afternoon Tea. Lisa will make sure photos are taken and displayed to show everyone having fun.
Megan was stranded taking a patient on an island day trip. She worked to find solutions, including finding a place to stay, avoid distress for him and trying to source medication. She kept a cheery, positive attitude despite the unplanned stopover.
Andrew is always willing to be flexible in his approach to his working pattern, he will regularly swap and change his shift pattern to meet the needs of service users and skills mix. He will come into work to drive for unit needs on days off.
