Right at Home (Mid Cheshire)

It has been a lifelong passion of mine to run my own home care business. I’ve worked in the home care sector for over 15 years, including time spent as a CareGiver working my way up to being a Registered Manager and latterly as a part of the Senior Management Team with a market-leading national home care provider.

I have a Level 4 NVQ Registered Managers Award and am an active Dementia Champion in Crewe and Nantwich, delivering free information sessions to organisations and businesses to help create a dementia friendly community.

My real motivation comes from my Grandad who sadly passed away in 2014 following after living with Dementia and Alzheimer’s Disease for nearly 10 years. I grew up in Kendal, in the Lake District living next door to my Nan and Grandad and enjoyed many great years working for my Grandad in his family-run paint and wallpaper shop. As my Grandad’s Dementia progressed, he, of course, needed support and care as he started to struggle with his normal daily routine, and unfortunately, although much of his care was excellent, this wasn’t always the case. I use this as my constant guide to the quality of care we provide our Clients – “Would it have been good enough for my Grandad?” The answer must always be yes.

“I have enjoyed working within the home care sector for over 25 years, starting my career as a CareGiver and progressing to become a Registered Manager.
My dad lived with dementia, so this is an area of care very close to my heart. My passion is to deliver the highest standard of care and support to people from all backgrounds who need help to remain in their own homes. Jo has a Level 5 Registered Managers Diploma.

I believe it’s important to always be learning and developing your skills and to ensure my team of amazing CareGivers have the skills, knowledge and support they need to provide outstanding care.

Outside of work I love being with my two daughters and my son. My nan is 103 and we have the best time together! I love anything to do with K-Pop, especially BTS and Stray Kids.

I am an avid reader and always have three or four books on the go at once. I love learning about other cultures, travelling and art.”

My career in health and social care began in 2010 as a care assistant in the community. I instantly knew it was what I wanted to do and I was eager to learn and grow my experience to help more people.

I have worked in various settings such as complex healthcare, learning disabilities, acquired brain injuries, respite care and residential. My true passion is community care, enabling people to remain in their own homes maintaining as much independence as possible. I returned to community care in 2018 as a team leader, and progressed to quality and compliance officer thereafter.

I am a dignity champion, enjoy solving problems and my focus means I have a keen eye for detail. I pride myself on delivering the highest quality of person centred care to all clients and that’s why I chose to work for Right at Home Mid Cheshire.
