Caroline Deane
Healthier Working Lives care lead
- Workforce Policy and Practice Lead, Scottish Care
Biography
My experience in the ageing arena. I have been a Care Manager responsible for the delivery of care at home services in Glasgow. In my role at Scottish Care role (representing over 400 care providers) I aim to ensure that their voice is heard by key social care stakeholders making policy decisions that impact their sector.
The impact I’d like to make as part of the HWL programme. Social care is a vital component of enabling people to live independently in their own home and communities. I began my career as a care and support worker, so I’d like the HWL programme to demonstrate why it is vital that we ensure the social care workforce is supported to remain healthy and happy at work.
