Graham Dalton's Company Details

At 1st for Care, we set up and manage teams to care for clients up to 24 hours a day. Our ethos is simple, apart from our client and CQC obligations, we employ a team that works with the client and that is picked with client and family involvement. Then we make sure we support the team as valued employees. These simple tactics help ensure our clients are well cared for and feel valued as people. Our company is led by nurses who have complex care experience. I have worked as a Care Service Manager for a national complex care company where I managed teams from Chester up to Carlisle and Newcastle, I am an adult nurse, with experience of managing teams who look after spinal cord injury, ABI/TBI, MND and ventilated clients amongst other things. I wrote a dissertation on MND and have qualifications in Long Term Conditions and Integrated Care. My wife, Amanda, who runs our company is a mental health nurse and also has spinal cord injury, ABI/TBI and MND nursing care experience and obvious mental health nurse skills, i.e. an interest in therapies and great communication skills.
