Beverley Blakeman – Director / Registered Care Manager
Hi, my name is Bev, I am the registered manager of Essential Health, and it is an honour to be so. I have too many years of experience to mention within the Health and Social care sector, but I would like to say that I am very proud of the united team we are. We all agree that our working ethos is to provide a service of bespoke care with passion, dignity, inclusion and respect.
I enjoy frequenting my caravan in Wales and exploring the stunning surroundings with my Husband. I am partial to a meal out with my friends and having a catch-up. I currently have 3 dogs who I love dearly. They are a mixed bunch consisting of a large Labrador, a medium Springer Spaniel and a miniature dachshund who all keep me on my toes. I enjoy most music; however, my favourite is Motown and Northern Soul. I have one son whom I am very proud of and who appears to be thriving in this world.
Paula Cheney – Quality Assurance Manager
Hello, my name is Paula, and I have been in the care sector for over 13 years. And I have found it a very privileged and rewarding role to support people in their own homes. I started as a care assistant and worked my way up to supervisor, then quality assurance manager; I have recently completed my Level 5 in Health and Social Care. I work with an amazing team of care assistants and office staff.
In my spare time, I like to read, listen to music, and go to concerts. I also look after three dogs when their owners go away.
