Priority Staff member Susan Scott has retired after 19 years in St Columba’s Care Home. Susan started work in the home as a care assistant, then progressed to Senior Care assistant and remained a valuable member of the care team for many years. Latterly, Susan decided to work in the laundry until her retirement. A surprise retirement party was organised for Susan by staff who presented her with flowers, wine and vouchers. All staff enjoyed saying farewell to Susan over a buffet and drinks in the home. Susan will be greatly missed but we all wish her all the best for the future!
