She’s worked with BCG, formerly Balhousie Care Group, since 2014. She started off as a carer before becoming a senior carer and then took a short break to finish her studies before returning as a nurse in October 2023.
Ms Scott was promoted to Clinical Deputy Manager within months and has been described as being ‘instrumental’ in developing Wheatlands Service.
She said: “I’m truly honoured to be presented with this award and to represent my incredible colleagues in this way. At Wheatlands and across BCG, I have some outstanding fellow nurses and care workers who are skilled, dedicated and passionate about their work. I feel that I’m taking back this award not only for myself but for my team members and my home too.”
