Care Assistant - #2128022

Ray's Healthcare has been named in honour of my Dad. He spent 25 years of his working life with South Yorkshire Police and then went on to support my Mum with their successful company. In 2018 he was diagnosed with prostate cancer which he battle with success over 2 years. During Covid he was taken into hospital where he was diagnosed with dementia…

Dad is currently residing in a private nursing home where he is visited daily by our family.
