New Manager For Tiptree Care Homes

Dawn Skippins has been appointed as manager of Morley Road and Henderson and Harvard in Tiptree, part of Salutem Care and Education.

Dawn started her career in care sixteen years ago when she was just 19 and fell in love with the sector, believing she was in a role where she could make a real difference to people’s lives. In her career at Salutem she has progressed to a managerial role from her initial position as senior support worker.

Her goal is to encourage the individuals she supports to dream big and live their lives to the full no matter what. She is focused on person centred support to enable each individual to work towards their independence and have the best quality of care they need.

Morley Road is a 24-hour residential home for adults which supports people who live with learning disabilities, mental health support needs and physical health needs.

Dawn said: “Salutem has been incredible over the five years I’ve been working for them and I would never want to work anywhere else. The team is so knowledgeable, and sense of community is something I am really grateful for. It’s like one big family and I am excited to get started in my new role and continue to empower the individuals we support.”

Regional director of Salutem Care and Education, Lucy Bithell said:
“Big congratulations to Dawn and I wish her every success in her new role. I know she will do an amazing job for the individuals we support and her teams. She is a testament to the incredible career opportunities in the social care sector here at Salutem.”
