It's Carers Appreciation Week and throughout the week we'll be introducing and celebrating our amazing carers. To kick it off, we'd like you to meet Lisa, one of our team leaders.
Lisa is an incredibly talented woman, a ballroom and Latin dancer, and she's brought that talent directly to our residents.
And here's the thing she'll tell you herself: she can't sing a note, but loves soul music. Something that's close to her heart in care when working with residents living with dementia, is music. It's the key to reaching someone when nothing else can, and in her own words "It's a truly magical moment when you see a resident with dementia light up to an old song and remember every lyric".
It's something we find truly powerful too.
She's been in care for twenty years now. It started on nights when her own children were small, and she worked her way up to her NVQ Level 5, worked at five different homes. But the qualifications aren't what make her Lisa. Ask anyone here.
She's the one who'll get down on the floor to help someone back to their room. She gets right into the moment, every time. We're incredibly grateful for Lisa.
Thank you, Lisa. 💙
