From Mental Health Nurse to Sylvian Care Franchisee

Sylvian Care franchisees come from all walks of life, and every possible background, but each and everyone has embarked on a transformational journey to an exciting and rewarding new career with our help. Every franchisee story is special and unique in its own way, but we are especially inspired by how Sylvian Care Bristol franchisee, Betty Ndewku, has combined both passion and purpose to transition from mental health nurse to home care business owner. She has now gained her CQC registration and can began her career with Sylvian Care in earnest, and achievement which highlights both her dedication and commitment to contributing to her community in a new and meaningful way.

Betty’s background as a mental health nurse means she already comes to the role with invaluable insights into the nuances of caregiving, a well-developed sense of empathy, and an understanding of the profound impact of mental health support. When she encountered Sylvian Care’s business model, she was immediately drawn to our unique approach. Sylvian Care, known for its relationship-based ethos, aligns closely with Betty’s belief in the power of personal connections to foster well-being and support independence.

It is exactly this focus on creating genuine relationships between carers and clients that makes the Sylvian Care model stand out in the crowded home care market, and able to attract talented partners like Betty. Our unique approach not only combats loneliness among the elderly and vulnerable populations but also builds a foundation of trust and respect, making Sylvian Care a beacon of compassion in the challenging world of the modern care sector.

For Betty, receiving her CQC registration is a dream come true, enabling her to officially start trading and begin building a team at her Bristol office. She is eagerly anticipating the opportunity to apply her nursing experience and passion for mental health in a new context, offering a broad spectrum of care services—from personal care and dementia support to companionship and more—each tailored to meet the unique needs of her clients.

Betty’s story is a shining example of how Sylvian Care’s vision and mission resonate with individuals who are not just looking for a great business opportunity, but also for a new vocation they can feel truly passionate about. A chance to make a positive contribution to their local community and help raise the quality of life for those most in need. As Betty prepares to make her mark in Bristol, she is not just launching what will be a very successful business. She is also becoming a champion for our mission here at Sylvian Care: to expand our compassionate service nationwide, transforming the landscape of domiciliary care with every new franchisee and client relationship formed.
