When I first joined cygnet as a foreigner I was first given the very welcoming and positive vibes that made me more confident that I am safe and my ideas and skill towards supporting with respect trust empowerment and dignity is accepted even amongst my fellow staffs.
She with the company of Shara gave me a proper introduction unit by unit. Thank you.
Every ward needs a Paul; he is just so positive and carries this in his daily working practice; often getting our service users engaged in games and often see him laughing with our service users. He is very dedicated and supportive; will go above and beyond which is massively appreciated. I will sure miss you when I go back on Days.
I have nominated Cris because she has such a fabulous approach to communicating with the individuals in our service. She is so skilled at presenting a calm, low stimulation, reassuring presence for those individuals who need it. This is great person-centred working and wonderful to watch!
Thank you Cris!
Ejiro is absolutely amazing, she supports the service user and staff at Bury Upper East ward with tolerance and kindness. She is a fantastic to work with; staying calm and ever compassionate in tough situations and then acknowledging when it is time take a break to recoup energy for the next challenge that may come along! Thank you Ejiro
Eleanor has shown fantastic resilience, being able to support and build therapeutic relationships with the patients despite the ward being extremely challenging. Eleanor showed compassion and flexibility in her approach to the work which led to improved outcomes and better psychological understanding of the patients that needed extra support
Riah is a fun and passionate Occupational Therapist. She has contributed towards the development of a Model of Care Group for patients, and did a great job in presenting the Model of Care Presentation to new staff this week. She continues to demonstrate growth and progression in her role as an OT. Well done Riah, keep up the great work.
Charlotte is a very experienced member of staff who is a real team player with lots of ideas to share. Charlotte has an excellent sense of humour and is always on the ball with everything that goes on here at Norcott. Charlotte can also be super professional but always has time to help out others. Charlotte has lots of respect especially from myself.
Chloe is due to go on maternity leave and until this point has worked to cover all shifts, meet residents activity requests out of her own working pattern and has generally gone above and beyond repeatedly to better improve her service and her residents day to day lives. Chloe is an advocate for person centred care.
Robert has spent lots time working with some of our most challenging residents both on Kirkside House and Lodge. He really takes the time to build a good rapport with all of our residents, learning what they like to do and talk about. Robert is always happy to help and is full of great stories which keep both service users and staff entertained.
Lauren has really helped me to transition homes. She has supported me to learn about the residents and my new role and has offered guidance when needed. Lauren has an open door policy and has been very supportive whilst I’ve been transitioning. Lauren trained me at my old home in order to be confident enough to go for this role.
Throughout a challenging time on the ward Hannah has assisted with covering the ward manager alongside assisting with nursing duties on the ward. This has been appreciated by all the staff and patients, so thank you very much for your flexibility and hard work in assisting with ward improvement.
Bex is an excellent leader, colleague and psychologist. She is incredibly motivated, hard working, supportive and fun. She is extremely resilient and is able to manage her ever growing workload, and remains positive regardless. She contributes lots to her service and wider region, always being available to lend a hand and offer advice to others.
