Georgina Phillips

I currently work as a Senior Support Worker at Ashington Gardens.

I have extensive experience in providing line management and ongoing support to staff and learners, ensuring the team delivers high-quality, person-centred care. I have a good relationship with the teams I work alongside and where needed, conflicts and difficult conversations are managed professionally.

I have experience working in line with CQC standards and maintaining compliance within the service, keeping records up to date in a timely manner and when appropriate. Being part of the last CQC inspection provided me with a fresh and transparent view of the regulatory system.

I am trained in the safe administration of medication as part of my role and take responsibility for managing service users’ care needs. My role also includes overseeing house budgets, ensuring accurate monitoring and accountability. Alongside the team, I contribute to planning enrichment activities and daily support, promoting independence and well-being, These are just a few of my responsibilities within my current role.

I am confident using Microsoft Excel and other Microsoft Office applications for record keeping, reporting, and administrative tasks.

I have completed an extensive range of training provided by my employer, further developing my skills and knowledge in health and social care practice.

• Following my time in Swansea, I relocated to Brighton with the same agency, where I worked from 2019 until the beginning of 2022. During this period, I worked across several care homes in Brighton, including assignments with Bluerock and Newcross. This role enabled me to further develop my experience in providing high-quality, person-centred care to a variety of service users and broaden my skills within different care environments.

• Started my career as a Care Assistant following a one-week induction provided by an agency in Leeds. I was initially placed in a residential setting in Cambridgeshire before relocating to Swansea. I worked as a Healthcare Worker for the first few years of my career in England, where I gained practical experience in delivering person-centred care. During this time, I successfully achieved my NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care and developed strong foundational skills in the sector.
