NORTH TEAM

Jane Wilson

Operations Manager

Jane started her career in 1983 working for the NHS at Minster Hospital in a rehab physiotherapy unit working with stroke patients, limb replacements and elderly care. She loved the work but shiftwork is difficult with a young family.

After having a family, she moved to working in home care services, providing care to mostly older people and disabled people in their own homes. Jane quickly became the manager of Boldglen Ltd, Sheppey area and continued to work there for 14 years.

To further her career to Registered Manager she moved to Audley at Mote House in Mote Park and set up the new business at the retirement village, providing care for residents and the local community. Here she undertook Leadership and Managers Award and continued her development.

Four years later, Jane moved to Avalon Enterprise UK Ltd, working with learning disabilities and autism in both supported living and home care. Here, Jane found her passion and 7 years later Avalon was bought by PCAS and her journey continues, doing what I love. 

Sandie Love

Area Manager

Sandie has worked in health and social care for over 20 years. Caring for a family member led her to a career turn and make the decision to become a support worker. Soon after she was promoted to a senior, followed by team leader, then a manager in a short space of time. Sandie achieved the level 5 diploma in 2016.

Sandie enjoys helping people to achieve their full potential and find new interests, she is a firm believer in making support sessions fun. She is hard working and always willing to help with anything, she enjoys a challenge and is not easily fazed.

In her spare time she continues to care for a family member, and also likes to spend time with my husband, children and 10 Grandchildren (11th one due in March 2020)

Doris Hunt

Area Manager

 Doris …. Sometimes known as Tracey, no one knows why really? 

Doris has worked for PCAS for 3 years, when she first started she managed just 1 house in Gravesend as the time has gone on PCAS has grown and currently she manages 3 houses in Gravesend.

Doris has worked in social care for 18 years and has been a community carer, worked in a dementia care home and been a PA for a man with MS. She is very passionate about what she does and has made a big difference to the lives of so many people that she has supported,  Doris is a very capable Manager and this also shows in the way she supports her staff team to help others.

Before going into social care Doris qualified as a hairdresser (for the council) apparently some of her service users have "benefited" from this, we use the term benefit loosely? 

Doris likes to think she is a calm and collected person, and when she needs to be she is, however she likes to have a laugh and act the fool at times she is most certainly in the right job.
