⭐️ October Employee of the Month - Community ⭐️

A huge congratulations to our Community Support Worker, Zoe, who was awarded October Employee of the Month!

Zoe is part of our Potterton/Balmedie team, and commits herself to a permanent morning/lunch schedule. Zoe celebrated 2 years with Aberness last month.

Zoe demonstrates a strong commitment to the clients she visits, and utilises the allocated time to the best of her ability. Zoe is diligent, thorough and attentive towards meeting the clients’ needs, whilst often going “over and above” to ensure the clients feel valued.

Clients consistently share positive feedback regarding Zoe’s dedicated approach and kind nature. One client in particular described Zoe as a “wee treasure”.

Last month, a member of the public witnessed Zoe’s caring and kind approach whilst on shift, and was so touched by the genuine nature of the interaction, that she reached out to Aberness to praise Zoe:


“As a line manager for home care myself in the shire, I couldn't walk away without saying something to the carer who works for yourselves. What I witnessed yesterday in M&S Bridge of Don was so lovely. A lady/client was distressed because she couldn't get home, how your staff member handled the whole situation and put her at ease/reassured her was amazing. I did pass on to her that her hard work doesnt go unnoticed and the lady/client said that the carer 'has wings and is an angel in disguise'. I did make the carer cry, but in a good way.
I unfortunately didn't catch her name, but hopefully you will know who she is.
I just wanted to pass on as she really did go above and beyond, whilst being professionals she demonstrated values in the way she cared. She seemed like such a lovely girl, it made me so proud of a complete stranger and shows how great care staff really care.”


Zoe, the level of care and concern you demonstrate on a daily basis is admirable. Thank you so much for representing Aberness in a positive light, simply by being you 💜💚

⭐️ August Employee of the Month - Community ⭐️

A huge congratulations to our Bridge of Don Community Support Worker, Jacqui, who was awarded August Employee of the Month.

Jacqui is part of our Bridge of Don team and has been loyal to Aberness for over 5½ years now. Jacqui works a permanent morning/lunch shift schedule in Bridge of Don, and clients trust when to expect Jacqui, as she has been committed the same schedule for years now (with an excellent attendance record).

Jacqui never fails to deliver positive feedback from clients and their families, who comment on Jacqui’s “brilliant” and “patient” approach. Jacqui’s kind nature and wealth of knowledge/expertise has enabled her to effectively manage complex situations.

Jacqui has further been commended for her attention to detail; she recently identified a small change in a client’s appearance which prompted for further testing.

Jacqui is always prompt in her response to updating training requirements and is currently working towards achieving her SVQ level 6.

Jacqui, thank you so much for your loyalty over the years, and always making such a positive impression out in the community. You are a huge asset to us 💜💚

⭐️ July Employee of the Month - Community ⭐️

A massive congratulations to our Peterhead Community Support Worker, Stephanie, who was awarded as our July Employee of the Month.

Stephanie joined Aberness in May 2022 and commits herself to our Peterhead team. Stephanie is a conscientious member of the team who strives to contribute abundantly to clients, colleagues and management. Stephanie has established strong and trusting working relationships, subsequent to her determination to consistently practice at the highest standard. Stephanie demonstrates key team player qualities; she acts as a good mentor to new staff and is often flexible to ensure full shift cover in Peterhead.

Clients comment that they feel like a priority when Stephanie is on shift, due to the time and effort she invests during scheduled visits. Stephanie is regarded highly in Peterhead, and is regularly praised for her kind and caring ways. Below is an extract from feedback we received from a client’s family member, highlighting Stephanie’s positive contribution.

“I saw first-hand the compassion and professionalism of your team. Among them, Stephanie stands out as a stabilizing presence, especially while other carers are on leave. She has shown remarkable initiative in supporting newer colleagues to understand Dad’s routine and preferences, effectively demonstrating peer leadership.
Stephanie brings warmth, diligence, and genuine care to her work—treating Dad’s home with the same attentiveness as her own. She’s the kind of person any care service should seek to retain and reward.”

Stephanie, congratulations again! Thank you so much for all you contribute to the team, and for representing Aberness in such a positive light 💜💚
