Blessing was one of the people that helped organise an African themed night at Beckly House. She assisted in cooking Nigerian dishes such as jollof rice, fried rice, chicken, puff puff and a traditional drink called zobo. All resident loved it and a resident suggested Jollof rice be added to the menu because of how nice it was.Everyone enjoyed it.
Anna has been working really hard to support the residential team (Jade, Mayowa and Amelia). Anna has always managed to help with cost breakdowns, ensuring these are received in a timely manner, which helps our team massively. I would just like to thank her for her hard work and support and to let her know her work is appreciated.
Akorade has become one of the unsung hero’s here at kirkside. Since starting with us he has developed trusting and happy relationships with all our service users. No task is to big or to small and no matter what the day throws at him he handles it with a smile and a calm cool collected approach. He is punctual, polite and extremely reliable.

Ben supported myself to take some of our patients to a local pantomime production of Rapunzel. This required him to work late after a long shift. Ben is always willing to go the extra mile for our patients to provide them equal opportunities to engage in something meaningful. He effortlessly makes those around him laugh and is a great colleague.
One of our residents was told they would be admitted to hospital at some point overnight. Jade didn’t think twice about volunteering to go and sit with her until she was admitted at 5am! Not only did this ensure the night staff at service were safe, but it mean the resident had a friendly face with her to reassure her! Thank you Jade 🙂
In my role as the only Dietitian on site I often use the notes written by nurses to support my assessments of the young people in my care. I can always rely on Blessings to write full and comprehensive notes. She always does what she says she is going to do and ensures that everything is appropriately documented.
Thank you Blessings.

Katie’s can do attitudes is always upbeat, positive and inspiring .
As the administrator for site, I do not have keys & a panic alarm when I am on site. After a staff meeting, I randomly tested the team to check response time for an alert that would not normally show – the basement meeting room. Along with x2 others, Salina responded within 20 seconds of the alarm being pulled. Well done Salina, excellent support!

He is always great and enthusiastic with the patients. I overheard him asking the psychology team how best to communicate/start conversation’s with a patient. He’s always smiling and a great colleague to work alongside.
Deborah is a night senior that has just been advised to go on light duties due to her current state. However, Deborah goes above and beyond to be punctual on shift, attend to all duties assigned cheerfully and give adequate support to the residents and staff members. She has been an exceptional Night senior and passionate about her job.
