Vivant, which officially launched last month, is centred on providing discreet and tailored care support focused on enabling its clients to continue living their life to the full.
With an expanding team and client base, the high end care brand has brought in an experienced industry figure to head up its operations.
Kelly Morris, who joins in the new role, has an extensive care career that spans more than 20 years, with eighteen of those spent leading home care services. Her background includes a focus on older care, dementia care, long-term conditions, physical disabilities, learning disabilities, spinal injuries, and end-of-life care. This breadth of experience uniquely positions Kelly to provide exceptional, person-centred care to individuals with diverse needs.
A registered manager and nominated individual with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), Kelly holds full qualifications in Leadership and Management in Health and Social Care. Her specialisation in End of Life Care (Gold Standard Framework), Safeguarding, and Medication makes her a valuable addition to the Vivant team.
Kelly’s previous roles have showcased her leadership and coordination skills, including jointly chairing monthly safeguarding panels with local authority Safeguarding Leads and overseeing nursing recruitment for a group of 35 care homes nationwide. She has also served as the area manager for homecare branches across multiple London boroughs, and has experience in establishing, registering with the CQC, and developing new branches.
In her most recent role as a Homecare Operations Director at Excelcare, Kelly led a team responsible for supporting 230 adults, delivering 6,500 hours of care each week. Under her leadership, consistent CQC ratings highlighted outstanding performance, particularly in the well-led category.
Furthermore, as a resident of South West London, Kelly also has a deep understanding of the unique challenges and opportunities within the capital, contributing to her ability to deliver outstanding care across the city.
