It’s big cheers for Sharyn, one of our amazing residents at Acer Mews - Exemplar Health Care
She recently had a leg amputation but hasn’t let that stop her! She's taken back her independence with a brand-new mobility scooter.
Our team put her through a fun driving test, and she passed with flying colours
She was awarded a certificate, L plates, and even personalised number plates!
What an inspiration!

Nurses do more than care - they connect, support and empower
Over the last couple of weeks we've been showcasing this as part of our International Nurses' Day celebrations
We asked the people we support 'What does your Nurse mean to you?', and created an exhibition centred around their heart warming answers.
People connected with our stories, chatted to us about social care nursing, and left messages of thanks to Nurses everywhere
You can still join our celebrations! Visit our online exhibition here https://www.exemplarhc.com/international-nurses-day-2025
