Cate has been brilliant at supporting me throughout a recent sickness. The support I have received from her has took a great deal of stress off my shoulders while I’ve been sick and I’m so grateful. She’s kind, caring and supportive.
Nicola has been an excellent support to the service. She has a housekeeper role. Our chef is on leave this week and Nicola has stepped in to help the service by going into the kitchen and cover the meals. She made a delicious buffet for the halloween party and has been more than supportive to put in the extra hours to support the service users.
Scott is our mental health first aider at Outwood, and over the last few months has supported people through some real challenges.

Since starting with Cygnet, Lawrence has been non-stop improving the home for the service users. Redecorating many of the bedrooms and just giving the home the general TLC which was required.

Recently I was subject to a potential scam, during which someone requested to change my bank details with HR. Selina identified this as a scam, alerted myself and relevant internal bodies, to ensure that I was kept safe. She was vigilant and diligent in her job to keep my details safe and secure.

During a waking night, a service users was having several incidents that were challenging. Paul wasn’t on call, however came into service and supported the night staff team with this. Paul ensured the service user and staff team were supported and all were safe. Thank you Paul 🙂
Rebecca’s empathy is second to none and her continued perseverance in nurturing some highly complex individuals has been beautiful to observe. Through her consistency and empathetic nature, she is able to make patients at the their lowest point in life believe that there is hope and that they deserve to receive a high standard of care. A true empath.
She showed exceptional care with one of our patients during her end of life care. She worked tirelessly to ensure this patient was comfortable, clean during her last days. I have never seen such devotion from a staff member and it truly was beautiful to watch. Sadly the patient has passed, but i know that she would be grateful for Donna’s efforts.
