LJM Homecare Lincoln

My background is in nursing working in a number of different nursing environments. I started LJM Homecare Lincoln in 2014 because I saw a real need for quality, reliable, and individually focused care. My passion is being constructive in empowering individuals to be as independent as possible within their homes and giving staff the ability and confidence to flourish into the best version of themselves.

I believe in transparency, honesty, and people who genuinely have a passion for sharing my ethos as together we are able to achieve real improvements in social care and ultimately change the experience and quality of life for the service users.

I enjoy being involved in any form of fitness and am a regular charity fundraiser for St Barnabas Hospice. Whatever the challenge, be it a mountain or a mud run I am happy to take it on.

I started my career in care in 2012 in the community, which has dramatically changed my views on life. I pride myself on being involved with a fantastic team delivering life-changing care to my local community. In my 10 years in care, I have achieved promotion to Registered Manager and can’t imagine a more rewarding job role.

My passions involve the daily running of the branch, and I consistently strive to improve service users' experience, family involvement, and staff flourishing. My ethos aligns with that of LJM Homecare in its drive for continual improvement to achieve the best quality of life.

I enjoy challenging myself while raising money for St Barnabas Hospice. Such as when I took part in the ‘Don’t quit, get fit’ campaign and climbed Mount Toubkal, where, between 17 of us, we raised over £40000.

I started in care when I was 18 as a carer and worked my way up to Assistant Manager. I am immensely proud to do the job I do as I passionately believe in making people smile and creating an environment where people are proud to be actively involved.

My role involves overseeing the rotas and working towards getting your call times exactly as you would like them. I will also help communicate your requirements to the carers so they are aware of how you would like things to be done.

In my spare time, I am very much a home bird spending quality time with my family. For this reason, I understand the importance of your home is a safe haven.

I started to care as a support worker for young adults with learning difficulties and challenging behaviour. I have now progressed to Carer Manager which I find rewarding as I feel on a daily basis I am able to support the carers in their role in order for them to provide bespoke care for our service users.

My passion is to support and create a team of carers who all have the unique skills to deliver individualised and high-quality care. My main focus is providing training and guidance to carers to maintain staff retention and the well-being of the team which ultimately leads to increased service user experience and quality of life.

I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends and as such passionately believe in promoting a positive work-life balance.

My role is to ensure the smooth running of the business, to work behind the scenes is to ensure that the best possible staff are appointed, trained, and given every opportunity possible to improve and develop themselves to enable them to give the best possible service to our clients.

As an Assessor & IV, There is nothing more rewarding than giving someone a qualification when they lack confidence in their own abilities and showing them that anything is possible.

(Don’t hold this against me) but I also deal with the accounts and send out your invoices. I believe that you should get exactly what you pay for, and if there are any issues, I am approachable to discuss them and solve them effectively, efficiently, and fairly.

In my spare time, I enjoy training at the gym and pushing the boundaries on what I can do physically, spending time with my family and my 2 dogs Molly & Luci Lou.

I am a supporter of Ford Napa Racing in the British Touring Car Championships and enjoy attending the race meets and having a bit of friendly banter with my sister who is supporting the opposing team (Mandy).

Since joining LJM I have enjoyed putting smiles on the faces of our clients. I have always endeavoured to put their needs first and bring the best possible care to them. I believe in listening to our clients to understand them and their needs. I am grateful to work for a company that respects and cares for both its clients and its employees.

Though I began my working life in the RAF, I have worked several jobs and I hope to bring the ethics, morals and experience I have gained, to the role of Client Manager, to make LJM the best it can be.

In my personal life, I have a large family that keeps me busy. I enjoy family days out and sports. I also love a good puzzle and any kind of challenge.

I began my career in care working in secure Mental Health facilities caring for vulnerable adults with challenging behaviour. I progressed into working in the community, as I wanted to work with a wide array of people with many different struggles and support them in leading the happiest, healthiest lives they can.

My goal is to mentally, emotionally, and physically support our service users in any way they need, catering my duties to each individual. I pride myself on being able to assess each service user's needs, treat everyone as the unique person that they are, and adapt my care accordingly.

I enjoy reading, spending time with my dog, going to the gym, and socialising with friends in my spare time.

Senior Carer

I’ve been with LJM for over four years, and I still love what I do every day. Supporting our clients to live independently and with dignity is incredibly rewarding. I specialise in dementia care and medication management, and I’m passionate about mentoring new carers to help them grow in confidence and skill. Outside of work, I enjoy baking and often bring homemade treats to share with the team.

Working at LJM has given me the chance to make a real difference in people’s lives. I take pride in supporting new members of the team by helping them settle in, build confidence, and deliver high-quality care. One of the best parts of my role is getting to meet new clients and learn about their unique stories and needs. Every day brings something new, and I love the variety.
