A new home with new opportunities

Cristina works at Nuthall Road, our service which supports people with mental health, learning difficulties and additional needs.

Having been in the UK for eight years, Cristina has worked for NCHA for nearly three years. Having previously worked in a care role in Spain, when moving to the UK she already had lots of experience.

Holding a Nurse Assistant NVQ and a Diploma in Social Care, she’s been a real asset to our team. She’s also done voluntary work with Red Cross Youth in paediatric wards and in schools supporting children from different backgrounds.

“ I think after the lockdown period and the whole pandemic, people became more in need, mentally talking principally… that is when more people searching for job opportunities should be encouraged to study and work in the care sector, so people in needs can be supported by professionals, as we all at some point will need care support. The care sector is currently in critical state around the world, and that made me feel strongly sure about I want to improve my career as a professional care.”
