Dawn Gower

Dawn has worked in the health/care industry for over 30 years. Having trained as a nurse at Solihull and Heartlands Hospital, once qualified, she chose to work with older people as she found them a most rewarding client group.

After working in a hospital environment for over 3 years, she then ventured into the care home industry. Dawn became a care home manager of both a nursing home and residential home which spanned ten years.

Dawn also worked in the recruitment sector as a Consultant up to senior level, achieving major awards in that sector by recruiting social workers and residential social workers up to senior management on behalf of local authorities and private organisations.

Dawn has worked within this current sector for the past 13 years as both an Advisor and Coordinator. Dawn says “It’s a very enjoyable, rewarding position working with How to Find a Care Home. Individuals and families are always very appreciative of the support we offer at what can be a very difficult time. Equally, the role of coordinator suits me well as I thrive on the excitement of finding placements where speed and accuracy of placements into care homes are at the essence of what we do, when working with hospital trusts and their discharge teams”.
