Busayo supported a service user with a music passion immensely. It was beautiful to see how he took time to facilitate activities and share his passion for music with this particular service user, sometimes staying staying well beyond his shift to make this happen.
Your hard work, dedication and support is seen and appreciated Busayo.
Chris always goes above and beyond to help his colleagues whilst still providing 1st class care to the service users. He gave up time on a busy shift to help me with someone’s complicated medication administration explaining the situation to us both so that the process went smoothly.
Elaine is a committed and dedicated member of staff who is contracted to a certain amount of hours each week. Elaine will regularly cover bus runs and go above and beyond for the service with no questions asked. Elaine will change her own personnel plans at the drop of a hat to support the service and individuals in her care and has no hesitations with this. She will be flexible with her team also and regularly cover shifts or if some staff may be struggling throughout the day she will take them off and swap roles. Elaine is a fantastic support worker to have around the service and all of this is completed with a positive attitude and person centered care at the forefront.
On my visits to Gledholt and the Mews, Enrico has shown great passion in his work as Cook. From enthusiastically coming in to speak to all guests to inform us of the menu options personally, to presenting recipes beautifully. Not only this engaging with all visitors on the day to see how we found the food and to gain feedback is professional and shows great love for the role. All recipes made to order based on what food is left in stock and still making it taste amazing and present like a Michelin star restaurant shows the innovation and passion he has for cooking. Really a fresh of breath air and truly in awe!
my team leader has been working really hard to keep the service running along side me (deputy manager) whilst our service manager has been off for 8 weeks. They have been working really hard to complete all tasks given to them and been completing their work to high standards. They have been getting involved in making the service users lives more fulfilling ensuring they are going out and completing meaningful tasks. I really appreciate all their support.
Laura is dedicated to her role and ensure managers are supported to become registered with CQC/CI/CIW, supports OD/MD’s/CEO’s to register new services. She assists managers to complete their application forms, explains what to expect from a fit person interview and guide them through the whole process.
Laura is very supportive of all her colleagues, makes herself available and will help to solve problems without being asked.
Lloyd has been with the company 15+ years as a Team Leader of the Service.
Myself, Cara has worked with Lloyd for almost 10 of these years and he has been the biggest support to myself and taught me a lot in that time. Lloyd has the best intentions for the service users and the service themselves and will always put them first going above and beyond daily. I have been covering maternity leave for the service manager which is something i have never done before, but having Lloyd by my side every step of the way pushing and striving for more and always offering a helping hand when needed. Lloyd has been a rock over the past few months and that trusting relationship that we have built is only having a positive influence on the service as we both want the same thing. A big thank you.
Lucie joined the Oaks as a newly qualified OT 6 months ago and in that short period she has gone from strength to strength. Lucie received outstanding 360 feedback at her 6 month probation which demonstrated her exceptional professional skill and also how valued she is by her colleagues from all disciplines. Lucie has volunteered to become the OT student co-ordinator for the South Yorkshire Region – this is a task which even experienced OT’s may feel daunted by, and yet Lucie has taken on this extra responsibility with enthusiasm and pride. Not only this, Lucie has also volunteered to be clinical supervisor to an OT apprentice from another Cygnet hospital who was in desperate need of a clinical supervisor (due to OT recruitment issues at their site) and she has excelled in this despite this being her first student. Lucie has been an incredible support to her supervisor and to the colleagues around her. She is an exceptional OT and it has been a pleasure to see her grow in skills in confidence. Lucie takes everything in her stride and embraces all tasks with positivity and enthusiasm, regardless of how challenging it may be. Lucie is progressing brilliantly through her preceptorship and she truly deserves this award.

Nathan has been working with a resident who struggles with his oral hygiene. Nathan has been using techniques that have been encouraged by the PBS Team within Gotts Park such as Now and Next Board, he has been patient throughout with the resident and discussed activities that interest him. This has been successful and the resident has now successfully brushed his teeth! Well done Nathan, you always show a high level of patience and resilience in every shift.
Nilisha has been very supportive during a critical and constricted time period for the CAMHS psychology team as the team was low in numbers due to people leaving/ going on leaves. She ardently stepped up and covered the therapeutic and admin work for other wards in addition with managing the work on her own ward. She kept the boat sailing for the team to a great standard and I would like to thank her for her exceptional hard work and resilience.
