Georgie

Training and Quality Co-ordinator

Georgina Lewin has won our employee of the month for May 2020.

She is one of our many bright lights over the past few months but she has excelled in her care, her responsiveness, her reliability and her willingness to take on new responsibilities and roles.

Well done Georgina

She has taken the time to explain a little about herself and her experience with Right at Home.

My name is Georgie, I joined Right at Home in September 2019.

–       My first impressions of Right at Home were that all the office staff were very helpful if I needed any help or had any problems. The carers that I met were so helpful (as I was new to care) and kind, it gave me a lot of confidence!

–       I didn’t have any previous experience in care before I joined Right at Home.

–       During my spare time when I am not caring I like to relax and play football. I train twice a week and play games on Sunday for Watford. I don’t mind the gym either!

–       The thing that has surprised me most working at Right at Home is that everyone within the team has the same positive attitude and not only go the extra mile for our clients but also for each other!

–       The most challenging thing about being a carer for me personally is getting attached as you see your clients every-day you almost become a little family so if any of them become unwell even with a cold you worry all the time! Also trying to stay on time, as once you’re in a good conversation, you just don’t want it to end!

–       The thing I enjoy most about working at Right at Home is that you make such a big difference to the clients, you go in and just by being there and taking the time to listen makes their day. Their smile when you leave is amazing!

–       Before Right at Home I was studying for my A Levels.

–       Something that might surprise you about me, not sure if this is what is meant, but I actually have three kneecaps!

–       For someone who is looking to join the team, I would say do it if you really want to make a positive difference to somebody else’s life! Everyone welcomes you with open arms and if there is ever a problem, someone will always be there to help / guide you.

–       Clients would describe me as jolly and probably a perfectionist! I actually asked a client earlier and they said I’m patient and have a lot of time to give, I always give them a laugh in the morning, so I was pleased with that!

–       I first got involved with Right at Home when I wanted a pathway to my ultimate goal of being a paramedic. Right at Home seemed a good place to start and I was right!
