Award-winning care leader Sarah Parkins founded Sarah Parkins Academy with a clear aim: to help carers and care agencies across the care industry raise standards and feel genuinely supported.
With over 15 years’ experience running a home care business rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission, Sarah created the Academy to share practical, real-world insight that works in day-to-day care.
Built from operational experience within an Outstanding-rated service, the Sarah Parkins Academy's programmes offer far more than training. They provide practical tools, guidance, resources and professional development to help teams strengthen compliance, improve quality and grow with confidence.
Over the next couple of weeks, we’ll be sharing key launch dates for our new website, including the launch of our 'Outstanding Care Compliance Programme', which will also feature a full suite of policies and documents!
