Judy Duggan, Training Manager: “I worked in retail but always thought that I would love to work in care. I took the plunge and applied with Eden Country Care in 2015 as a home care assistant. I had a lot of support to begin with and soon loved my new job and clients. In my first year I applied for senior carer and loved this experience, but I always had my eyes set on becoming a trainer. Within 3 years I had moved up from carer to senior to coordinator to the training team and now I am Training Manager. I’m out in the community a lot signing off new carers for the Care Certificate and assessing colleagues as well as developing our training further. Senior carer opened doors for me - I’m loving my role and I’m working on Level 5 with my eyes set on further promotion”

Don’t worry if you don’t aspire to management, if you want to remain a carer forever we would love to hear from you. Go on, contact us (confidentiality assured and job chats welcome).
