Marie Beasley – Care Coordinator
Marie Beasley – Care CoordinatorTalk to me about your healthcare requirements

I have worked for a large recruitment agency providing industrial and driving staff in London for six years, in various roles dealing with banking and other office tasks.
I then became a healthcare worker for several years – starting out as a care assistant and ending up as a senior carer specialising in domiciliary care.
My work entailed assisting the elderly and frail as well as those with special needs to continue living in their normal home environment, avoiding the need for longer-term residential care.
Since joining Fire Healthcare, I am now able to combine the two experiences of working in recruitment and healthcare to provide assisted-living care packages and domiciliary services.
My passion in life is to find good, committed and empathetic carers, working within the healthcare industry, during very demanding times we all live in.
I work hard to please our clients and our employees alike, and ensuring full compliance with all our responsibilities as carers and employers.
Everyone at Fire Healthcare is offered the training and learning opportunities to fully develop their skillset to boost their employment and career prospects.

My passion is always bettering myself and getting further experiences in education and professional training.

I ran a care company for over 4 years specialising in the care sector and it has been part of my DNA to establish best of breed care services. Fire Healthcare approached me to support them in developing the domiciliary and healthcare side of the business.

My core strength is providing continuity of care for all service users. This is a key ingredient to support vulnerable and the elderly. I can advise families in making decisions for their loved ones.
