Greenfields, April 4, 2025 – Sheila Bennett, a dedicated employee of Coverage Care, is celebrating a significant milestone as she reflects on her 15-year journey at Greenfields Care Home.
Sheila's career began as a care assistant, and she has since risen through the ranks to become the deputy manager, a role she takes immense pride in.

To excel in her new role, Sheila underwent extensive training in various areas, which equipped her with the skills needed to support nurses and management, as well as mentor junior colleagues. Her commitment to professional growth and development has been a cornerstone of her success.
Now, as the deputy manager, Sheila reflects on the numerous opportunities she has had to take on management-level responsibilities. "All the support from my peers made the transition less stressful," she acknowledges. The camaraderie and teamwork at Greenfields have been instrumental in her journey.
Sheila takes great pride in her work life and cherishes the many experiences Greenfields has given her. Her story is a testament to the positive impact of a supportive work environment and the importance of continuous learning and development in the field of care.
