From zero to hero, how a big change can be good – read Debby’s inspirational story.

Three months ago, Debby made the life altering choice to move away from retail management and start a career in care. After receiving a recommendation from a neighbour, Debby applied to Source Care and was soon on our free Care Certificate training. Since day one, her empathy and determination has shone through and she has impressed the team with her caring nature. Our training was the perfect starting point as Debby had no previous experience of working in the care industry.

Debby says: “I enjoy my work because I am helping someone to gain more confidence. It’s very rewarding work and I thoroughly enjoy it. This was a big career change, but the best move I have ever made. I have learned that there are people out there that are worse off than others. I believe I have become more caring and helpful since I started with Source Care.”

Soon after completing her training, Debby got underway with her first shift as a Healthcare Assistant. From this first shift, we knew Debby was special, with amazing dedication towards her work, doing all she could to assist clients in every way possible and spreading smiles around. Debby currently works with two of our clients helping to provide a range of care and assistance. Gaining experience working within Mental Health and Alzheimer’s.

“Debby is a fantastic carer. She is my neighbour and regularly helps with care for my dad who has Alzheimer’s. She always keeps me updated on how he is doing. My dad always has a big smile on his face after she has visited and he talks about her visit a lot when I see him. She clearly loves her job and has an amazing, bubbly and caring personality.” – Source Care Client

With the continuing help and support of Source Care, Debby hopes to continue her career by working within different sectors of the care industry. Debby is doing an amazing job, and we would like to thank her for all her hard work and dedication, as she has brought joy to many people. We wish her the best for her future development and whatever roles this may bring.
