Each Manager will have a very knowledgeable mentor who will be stepping up to be the RI once you have settled into your role as the RM.
🏡 About the homes;
Each home cares for 3 children. They both have great staff teams recruited and both have great children settled within them. The children are aged 5-18yrs and have been referred because they have been removed from their family homes due to neglect, inconsistent parenting, DV, MH, substance misuse and high medical needs such as brain tumours ect. Our children have contact with their family’s from either 2-3 times per week or on an ad hoc basis.
