From the manager

“When I wanted a fresh challenge, I thought I’d explore working for Care UK as I’d heard only positive things about its care ethos and support for its teams. I’m very pleased I did. I’m passionate about providing the highest standards of care and working with the team to maintain Glastonbury Court’s ‘Outstanding’ CQC rating. Ours is a lovely home to live and work in and it’s a huge privilege to work here and be leading the team. We are always striving for each resident to have a meaningful lifestyle and to fulfil their dreams. In this role it’s important to be open and honest, a good listener and to treat everyone equally. I enjoy seeing the residents, the team and residents’ families and having a chat, and helping to resolve any worries they have. In my free time I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cycling, travelling abroad and soaking up the sun. ”
