Feven is almost always at work, whether she is on site or not. She often completes her shift at Raglan House, then goes home to start another shift doing audits, care plans etc. She is always available if staff needs her. Staff calls and she picks her phone up regardless of the time. The best bit is, she does it with a smile.
The Outwood Night Team- We have had shifts consistently available due to being unable to recruit to them for a variety of reasons. Over the last year this team have worked so hard to ensure that the shifts are covered, they work together to ensure consistency for the residents as well as to support each other. Their hard work has meant that we very rarely run short and we always can meet the needs of the residents. They are a great team and a great support to the effective running of the service.

Derek has done a fantastic job to improve the front and back garden at Adel Cottage where he works. He has relayed turf, planted flowers in tubs and built and painted a new fence encouraging his patient to work with him so he feels he has meaningfully contributed, learnt new skills and has ownership of the space where he can sit out in the summer.
I am new to this role and Amber has given me tremendous support and ongoing training to enable me to get to grips with all the software systems and processes required. Amber has made the responsibilities easy to understand and shown great patience with all the many questions I have had. She is an absolute star!!
during an incident whereby a service user fell down the stairs and sustained a head injury Arron managed the situation extremely well, remaining calm, leading the scene & obtaining medical assistance. this event was traumatic for the individual and the staff. Arron ensured that everyone remained calm and the individual was supported to the hospital
