Business:Management
Series 3 Episode 3: I compare being a care home manager to a football manager
Multi award winning registered manager Ben Miller from Castleford House joins the care exchange for an extended chat about making continuing improvements to his service, to his recruitment strategy and to his role as a leader.
Ben shares how his thirst for learning has resulted in a complete transformation of recruitment, retention and culture within his service. He talks about how he has used podcasts and research about social care and other sectors to think about how to make changes and offers some top tips about how managers can use social media to both recruit staff and showcase the excellent work they have done within their service.
Watch Ben talk about the changes he made to his recruitment and retention strategy in a recording made prior to coming on The care exchange.
