Hello, my name is Samantha, and I am the Registered Care Manager at Falcon-Care, overseeing our Preston and Blackburn branches.
I have worked in the Health and Social Care sector for over 19 years, gaining experience across a variety of settings including Domiciliary Care, Complex Care, Residential, and Nursing Care. My career began as a care assistant on an Elderly Mentally Infirm (EMI) Unit, where I supported individuals with advanced dementia alongside qualified mental health nurses. It was a challenging role, but one that gave me a true passion for helping others and a deep sense of fulfilment.
Since then, I have progressed through leadership roles that have allowed me to develop my skills in quality, compliance, and service growth. I hold a QCF Level 5 in Leadership for Health and Social Care and Children and Young People’s Services, and I am currently working towards my Level 7 qualification to further enhance my professional development.
I am passionate about ensuring every individual receives high-quality, person-centred care tailored to their needs. For me, effective communication, empowering others, and supporting my team are the key ingredients to delivering excellent care.
Outside of work, I love spending time with my partner and children, going on country walks, reading, and socialising with friends and family.
I look forward to continuing to grow Falcon-Care’s presence in Preston and Blackburn, building a fantastic team, and providing the highest standards of care to our community.
