And she does it all with a spring in her step.

“I have tried retiring before but I like working!” says Liz. “I really enjoy the time I spend with the residents. I’ve known some of them for nine years now, so organising and leading activities is always enjoyable.”

Richard Lake, Balhousie Huntly’s Home Manager, continues: “People often don’t realise the different staff roles that comprise a care home team. And as Liz demonstrates, the Huntly team is a diverse one.

“Just as every one of our residents has different needs, so each of our staff can have different needs in terms of their hours, flexibility and career progression.”

Balhousie Care Group operates 26 care facilities across six regions of Scotland.
