Who Are Live In Care?

After spending many years in various management roles in retail, I founded Live in Care with my wife Elaine in 2014 after seeing that many large care organisations having lost their personal touch due to their sheer size. This has driven us to provide a much-wanted care service and more importantly make a real difference to people’s lives as well as the Live in Care sector. We have since developed this personal care service to cover all aspects of care from short term respite and companion care through to full-time live-in care and Palliative care. This passion for quality care we want to maintain by Live In care being Family orientated and family led.

I joined this amazing company as Registered Care Manager in July 2018. It was the shared ethos of care that attracted me to the role because it meets my intrinsic values and the fact that the company is privately owned, retaining its passion for quality care. I’m privileged to be a part of our wonderful and supportive office team. I have worked within the continuum of care and have experience in sheltered/supported living, domiciliary, residential and nursing care, so understand the changing needs of our clients. I have an extensive knowledge of ageing and various health conditions, my areas of expertise being rehabilitation, Dementia and end of life care, gaining trainer qualifications to enable me to share this knowledge with others. I have a BSc Hons Degree in Health & Social Care Management

I have extensive experience of caring for those living with specialist conditions, including dementia and Parkinson’s having had a successful career as a senior nurse in the NHS for over 30 years. I know how important it is for people to feel in control of their lives and to have choice. I'm passionate about giving people that choice and good quality care. Live In Care was founded on the basis of supporting people to live at home for as long as possible in their own homes, to help prevent crisis situations, hospitalisation and the need for long term residential care.

I started my career in care in 2003 working as a carer, supporting a wide range of clients living with both complex care needs and Dementia. I have progressed over the years to managing a team of carers and then recruiting quality carers for roles within the care sector. I passionately believe in delivering high quality care in a safe and compassionate way. At Live in Care, I have joined an Innovative company with a fantastic, friendly team.
