"I qualified as a Registered Nurse back in 1979 at Burton Hospital. It was my lifelong dream to be a nurse after a decision I made at 4 years old. After I qualified, I worked as a staff nurse at Geoffrey Hodges Wing in Burton which specialised in elderly care. I then went on to qualify as a midwife .I had my first son in 1982 and became a stay at home Mum for 5 years before starting work at Cedar Court, which was then known as Bretby Nursing Home, in 1987.I initially worked part time as a nurse then increased to full time. I had my second son in 1996 and returned to work at Cedar Court when he was six weeks old. I took on the General Nursing Manager position in the year 2000 and continue in this role until the present day. I am approaching 33 years' service, which will be in November. My life's dream has been realised over these years and I hope to be able to continue to care for the very special people that chose to live here."
