Natasha Franklin – Care Manager Infinite Care Caravonica
“I love that in this role I get to make a difference for the residents from behind the scenes. Sort of like a secret agent!”
Tash is the real life version of Wonder Woman – mum to three, full time Care Manager at Caravonica Waters and even holds the role of being Treasurer at her daughters Gymnastics Club. Her Infinite career journey is inspiring – we need more Tash’s!
Natasha applied at Infinite Care as a newly graduated RN in January 2020 – right before the Pandemic hit. Her hard work was quickly noticed and she was promptly promoted when the current Care Coordinator went on maternity leave. Part of this role involved filling in for the Care Manager when needed, and then Tash took her own maternity leave for short time.
Tash returned to a new Facility Manger and a few new team members to get to know. Undaunted, Tash says that she is, “good at adapting to different personalities and getting along with everyone.” Tash also embraces change – especially when she can see the benefits to the residents or the organisation at large.
The new FM, Anoop quickly saw how hard Tash was working and recently promoted her to the Care Manager role – and she is flourishing!
Tash is the proud Mum to three children, 12, 5 and 6 months old. She often brings them in to visit the residents and her 12 year old loves sitting with them playing boardgames and listening to their stories. Tash said she loves seeing the residents light up around the children, and of often pops her head into the bedridden residents rooms to show them the baby (photo at left), and it just means the world!
Tash also makes a point to join the crochet group when she can and loves bantering and learning a new skill with the residents.
We love you Tash, please don’t ever leave us!
