We recently relocated our Bright Care Training Academy to a picturesque location in Perthshire. This bespoke training facility offers our staff a week-long comprehensive Care Assistant course. All our Carers receive this training before they are matched with their clients; this way we can ensure they always meet our extremely high standards.
Nichola Tyson, Head of Bright Care Training Academy
Nichola Tyson joined us in June 2023 as Head of Bright Care Training Academy. We believe her passion, drive and vision will enhance all our Carer and Manager training. It will enable every one of our employees to thrive in their role and exceed the expectations of our clients. We know that Nichola will help share our company vision, that every elderly person can live their later years, with peace, security and purpose, in the comfort of their own home.
