“…thank you so much for helping us during a difficult time and supplying such good agency staff. Especially thanks to FG for doing so well on the waking nights…”

Well done to Careline worker F, it’s clear that you were a big help to this service!

21st May 2014

Sometimes staff get on so well at a service, they are asked back on numerous occasions. Careline staff member JC has been working at a nursery in Swindon for a while now, and the nursery took the time to tell us:

“…J has been with us for some time now and we are very happy with her. She is like a member of the team and works well in all areas of the nursery…”

Thank you to J for all of the great work that you do at this nursery!

15th May 2014

A positive attitude always goes a long way. A manager of a nursery in Odiham was pleased to have Careline worker EB working with them and kindly called us to say:

“…we have had E in our setting for a number of weeks now and she has proven to be an excellent addition to our team. She has a lovely calm approach to the children and the children have really taken to her…”

Agency work is all about providing the best possible support to services, and we love to hear that staff do it so well! Thank you E!

7th May 2014

A parent kindly took the time to call us with some praise for Careline workers FM, LB, DB and NH:

“…your guys have been outstanding supporting O, he really enjoys his time with them. Please thank them, they really are fanastic…”

It’s great to hear that the young people we provide support to get so much out of their sessions. Well done to F, L, D and N for ensuring that this great service is delivered!

30th April 2014

Professionalism is key as an agency worker. You are sometimes going into services that you have never been to before and you want to make a good, lasting impression. A manager of a children’s centre in Caversham found that Careline worker SW did just this:

“…S has always been professional and polite with all adults in the building (staff and families). She has built good relationships with staff and works well in the rooms. S is willing to work in whichever room/age group she is needed and can adapt her skills accordingly. The children have built good relationships with S and are always happy to see her…”

This comment says it all really!

23rd April 2014

A manager of a nursery school in Slough was exceptionally  impressed with Careline worker PR:

“…from my dealings with P, I cannot speak highly enough of her. She is professional in all her dealings that I have had with her and I know that the comments I receive from other staff members and parents are always that she is a delight to work with…”

What a fantastic comment! Great work P!

16th April 2014

It is always so nice to hear services requesting staff they have previously used to come back and work for them again. A manager of a learning disability unit in Wokingham specifically asked for Careline worker EC when they called us for some cover:

“…E is such a hard worker and interacts so well with the service users. We’d really like him back…”

Well done E!

9th April 2014

A manager of a learning disability service in Bracknell was impressed with Careline staff member ZH:

“…Z is fantastic. She had to be left alone and managed lunch and all the other tasks. Well done Z…”

Using initiative is important for agency workers. Z used hers very well!

2nd April 2014

Area manager SA of Friends Day Nursery had some wonderful feedback about Careline staff member DB-B:

“…D is such a lovely lady, just fantastic. It is like she has been here forever! She is the best temp we have ever had…”

What more can we say? Well done D!

26th March 2014

When services who haven’t used Careline before call us for some cover, we rely on staff to make a good first impression. When Careline worker DD went to work at an elderly service in Wokingham for the first time, they were full of praise for her:

“…D was amazing. She got straight into it and knew exactly what she was doing. We would love to haver her back…”

What a fantastic first impression! Thank you to D for doing so well.

19th March 2014

A fantastic comment from a lovely nursery in Farnborough about Careline worker JP:

“…J was absolutely fantastic! She used her initiative throughout the day, she always got on with things that needed doing without being asked. She had a lovely manner with the children and played with and responded to them well. We would definitely want her back when we next need to use agency…”

Brilliant work J, you’re a star!

12th March 2014

When working with children and young people, it is important to get “stuck in” and enjoy the time and activities that you are involved in throughout the session. A co-ordinator was kind enough to give us some great feedback about Careline worker CW:

“…she was really pleased with his initiative, getting involved in arts and crafts activities and engaging with the children and young people. She felt he got on really well with everyone and would be happy for him to work there again so many thanks for arranging this for us at the last minute…”

Fantastic work C! It sounds like you had lots of fun during this session.

5th March 2014

When working at a service that you have never been to before, it is important to find the right balance between using your initiative and asking for help from senior members of staff when it is necessary. A learning disability service in Sonning found that Careline worker  HS had this balance spot on and kindly told us:

“…H adapted exceedingly well to working with children with learning disabilities. She always consults senior staff when necessary but she also uses her initiative and experience when approaching tasks. She works efficiently and I would be happy to recommend her and also request her in the future…”

Great work H!

26th February 2014

Nurseries are busy places. Especially for those trying to run them! So we were really grateful when a manager of a nursery in Church Crookham took time out of her busy day to give us some wonderful feedback about Careline worker HM:

“…H was really lovely, fitted straight in and got on with the job in hand. All of the children gravitated to her and all really loved her. You’ve got a really good one there! We look forward to having her back…”

Thank you to H for being such a big help to this nursery!

19th February 2014

Careline provide staff for 1:1 work with young people with learning disabilities. A leader of a youth service in Maidenhead had some fantastic feedback about Careline worker FM:

“…F is very good at what he does and I really like the way he engages with everyone. He is fantastic…”

It is so important that the young people we support get the most out of their sessions. It is so great to hear that a good job is being done. Well done F!

12th February 2014

A manager of a Woking nursery kindly gave us a call to tell us how well Careline worker NM had done:

“…she is a lovely girl who got on with the job and settled in really well. The staff and children really liked her during her time with us…”

Well done N for making such a good impression! It is always lovely to hear that staff settled in well to a service.

5th February 2014

We really appreciate services taking the time out of their busy days to call us with positive comments about staff. A manager of a children’s service was full of praise for Careline worker DO:

“…D is fantastic. She is very adoptive, very punctual and very reliable. She has built up good, positive working relationships with all the young people in the home…”

In any work place, it is important to be reliable and punctual. Thank you to D for flying the Careline flag!

29th January 2014

As an agency, it is important that we stay on our toes and be ready to act fast. Services often need staff at the very last minute and we need to be prepared to supply this. This wouldn’t be possible if we didn’t have such dedicated and flexible staff. Careline worker SH received some great feedback from a manager of a children’s service in Maidenhead, after she went to help them last minute:

“…I just want to say a massive thank you for sending S on such short notice. S was fantastic! She was professional, polite, engaged very well with the young people and supported all the staff very well. Her professionalism is a credit to you and we would be happy to have her services in the future. Thank you for your calls and checking up on us too, that was brilliant…”

Not only did S respond to this services’ needs at the last minute, but she also made a fabulous first impression. Thank you S! You really are a credit to Careline!

22nd January 2014

We sometimes provide support to children’s Social Care services and these can include unannounced visits to family homes. These visits are not always easy and it is important to find the right balance between obtaining the information that is required, without being too invasive. Careline workers LB and TM found this balance and a social worker passed on this wonderful feedback from a particular mother, who was receiving these unannounced visits:

“…L was really grateful to L and T for being fun, supportive, respectful and helpful. Please thank them for all of their support…”

It is so great to see how much care and professionalism our staff put into the work that they do. Well done L and T!

14th January 2014

First impressions can go a long way, and we recently received some fantastic feedback about Careline staff member MK after she had completed a shift at a supported living service. Manager D kindly went out of her way to tell us:

 “…M is amazing. She interacted really well with the service users. I am happy for her to take as many shifts as she can…

It is always so great to hear a service requesting a member of staff to go back. Well done M!

7th January 2014

A Surrey County Council service manager took the time to let us have feedback for DD:

   “…We are very pleased with D. She has fitted in well with the team and works very well with the clients…”

Well done D we never get tired of hearing lovely comments like that!

19th December 2013

T manages one of the many brilliant mental health services Careline provides personnel to, and was kind enough to let us know her thoughts on longstanding Careline worker TD:

  “…She is just lovely. Just gets on with it. Really knows about mental health. She is just brilliant…”

If there is one absolute truth about care work its that you have to get the right person in the role. Here we see that T has all the skills and aptitude for this one. Bravo T!

5th December 2013

J, manager from a lovely learning disability residential unit has recently been booking Careline workers VB, SL and MP, and she took the trouble to tell us:

  “…Just wanted to say, your staff are lovely and have a really good rapport with M …”

As always excellence from care staff positively impacts the lives of residents. Well done V, S and M! (and by the way one of the many reasons M was named this month’s staff of the month)

29th November 2013

In the field of care you need both professional and social skills. It looks like Careline carer HC has plenty of both; this from care services manager J:

   “…H fitted in really well. She is really lovely and the service users really like her. We had her for the first time today and really liked her…”

How’s that for a first impression?

25th November 2013

C, manager at a local day centre, has more than enough to do, but nevertheless found a moment to let us know how pleased she was with Careline worker RH:

   “…R is superb, absolutely brilliant…”

Nuff said. Good work R!

5th November 2013

Community support organisations often call Careline when they need additional support workers to work with their own. Recently JB and VG took on some of this work and prompted a complimentary response from the organisation:

   “…thank you for last week, I have had excellent feedback from our carers and clients. We would have them again if they are available…They arrived on time, found all the clients and met up with carers for double -up calls; they were very experienced…”

Well done J and V, that’s yet another happy client!

11th October 2013

A Berkshire day centre found Careline care staff  VB invaluable. The manager told us:

“…V is just brilliant, absolutely amazing with S. She is really supportive, and S has really come out of herself since meeting V. S loves the bones of V…”
