Hi, my name is Mike, and I am the Clinical Development Nurse supporting our Yorkshire homes.  I started my career in care supporting people in the community and then attended Sheffield Hallam University where I completed my Nursing Degree.

Since qualifying, I have been a Nurse, Charge Nurse, Deputy Manager, Home Manager and then a Complex Care Nurse in the community before joining Barchester. Barchester shares my ideals of providing excellent care, and this provides the impetus to use my acquired skills and knowledge to support this.

I have worked in the care sector for 36 years, initially working for the NHS at Brandesburton Hospital as a care assistant. When the hospital closed I transferred to Townend Court and continued as a care assistant on the forensic ward for people with a learning disability. It was whilst working with the Occupational therapists at Townend that I discovered my passion for engaging the patients in activities of their choosing, I’m quite artistic and creative so it was an easy transition

I have many years’ experience working with the older generation and those who live with dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and other diagnosis’.

I am really looking forward to bring both my experience and passion to my new role and to see the positive impact on our resident population.
