Anusha Mantri

Care Coordinator

My name is Anusha from Hyderabad, India. In my country it is our culture to care for our elders. Despite having my MSc in IT Security, caring for one another, makes me who I am; very caring, compassionate, dedicated, patience and an effective communicator.

Working as a Service Coordinator for Stellar Care NW has enabled me to combine my IT and people skills to deliver the highest quality service delivery. I have developed my ability to multi-task; to take a person centred, holistic and collaborative approach to each client as well as their families care needs while always considering the health and well-being of our staff.

I feel deeply privileged to have the opportunity to also work as a Care Support Worker in the community as working in the community has lend an in-depth understanding to the care I provide; not only with my hands but I have learnt to care with my heart.

Because we care

At StellarCare NW LTD, we believe that a good carer is passionate about the care they provide and the needs of the people they care for. They ensure the care they are providing is person centred and in the interest of the service user and their families.

Passionate carers view working in the care industry not as a job, but as a professional vocation and will always want to learn more and build on their existing knowledge and skills. 

A good carer may hold qualifications in Health and Social Care as well as completing specialist and specific training for health conditions such as Dementia. 

The skills and qualities of a carer go above qualifications so no one is disadvantaged should they want to work as a carer.
