Having worked in care for over 30 years, she brings a wealth of experience to the role that will have a big benefit to our customers.
Throughout her career, Sam has worked in the roles of private Care Assistant, Assistant Manager in a Learning Disability environment and a senior Care Assistant in a residential home.
Of her decision to start her career in care three decades ago, Sam explained:
I am a qualified hairdresser and had a lot of older people as my customers. I really enjoyed it when I cut their hair because of the conversation really.
I found that I had a real soft spot for older people so thought that I would make a career out of it and what a lovely career I have had so far!
For me, caring comes from the heart and I know that I am making a difference. After a friend recommended that I apply to join the Bluebird Care team and I had spoken with the Registered Manager, Karen, I really got a good feeling.
From my initial conversation, I felt that Bluebird Care was a company that genuinely cares and am delighted to now have embarked on my role!
