Our brilliant staff continue to impress by going above and beyond their job spec to win our Employee of the Month award.
Gerard Rodrigo is one such individual. He works as a Health Care Assistant on our Kensington Suite where residents are often younger adults who require the highest standard of specialist nursing care for complex needs. These span traumatic or acquired brain injury, early onset Parkinson’s, stroke, multiple sclerosis or Huntingdon’s disease.
This suite also offers long term rehabilitation alongside maintenance physiotherapy and occupational therapy programmes. Staff are well versed in the management of specialist feeding systems, nutritional needs and inputs, complex continence care, bariatric care and diabetes management.
As a Health Care Assistant, Gerard works alongside our nursing and other medical staff providing invaluable support that enables others to carry out the more specialist procedures. His colleagues, as well as residents, nominated him for this award citing a long list of positive attributes including his passion for the job, his caring attitude, helpfulness, energy, patience, professionalism, excellent timekeeping and being a good team player.
Well done Gerard. You are a credit to the Kensington Suite and to CNC.
