Radfield Home Care Guildford & Woking

At Radfield Home Care Guildford & Woking, we believe in delivering top-tier service standards led by experts who embody our core values. Leading our team is Richard, a veteran care manager with a wealth of experience and qualifications in health and social care management and leadership.

Richard’s career path is a testament to his passion for improving lives. He spent a decade managing businesses in the recruitment industry, gaining invaluable commerce and people skills. Yet, he always felt a call towards a more service-driven sector to create direct positive impacts. He said:

“I always knew that I wanted to move into a more service-driven sector and role, where my input would have a positive impact directly on people’s lives.”

Having tasted the reward of direct caring, Richard developed a desire to shape home care services. His vision led him to establish a Radfield Home Care in his local community in Camberley. After successfully establishing and growing his local service, he branched out with an office providing for the Guildford & Woking area. He said:

“As a registered care manager, I developed a true passion to want to open my own home care business in my local community – providing high-quality person-centred care and support services and offering exceptional employment and career opportunities.”

Mike is the community engagement manager for Radfield Home Care Guildford & Woking, who maintains Radfield’s key relationships in the community.

Having joined Radfield in December 2023 as a care professional following a long career in dentistry, Mike is a dedicated member of the health care sector. In his own words, Mike describes his 20 years of fantastic experience:

“I was a clinical dentist from 1994 to 2011, graduating from the University of Colorado and the University of Michigan. I had my own practice from 1995 to 2004 in Colorado, USA. I have owned 3 businesses and marketed with brand awareness; Boniface Orthodontic Laboratory, The peak centre for advanced dental care and The fresh breath centre of Colorado. I moved into domiciliary care in Fleet, Hampshire between 2014 – 2016 and was the senior carer at The Meath Epilepsy Trust, Godalming 2020 – 2023. Working on a unit of 11 residents with multiple physical disabilities and neurodiverse conditions, all of which had epilepsy.

My background has been diverse and this in itself leads to an adaptability to new ventures and a changing landscape. I have already marketed, networked and branded in the dental sector. I have always been in a caring job from dentistry through being in the funeral and grief arena to the care sector itself. My natural ability is to care and to be with people creating bonds and relationships so a community engagement role is a perfect match for my personality.

As I have aged and gotten older I want to give back and do something that is meaningful and has purpose. What better job is there than to be involved in a company whose mission is to provide superlative private care to the elderly? My experience is in care, compassion and empathy. My values are honesty, being authentic and generous. These coupled together provides me a framework to network and brand with confidence and belief that I can help grow our territory and provide an outstanding service to existing and new clients. My qualifications include Doctor of Dental Surgery, Level 2 in elderly care, Level 2 in Dementia and an adult Care Certificate.”
