A lawyer has stepped away from the law to launch a business providing a full range of home care services.
Amna Tariq, 27, aims to make SureCare Stockport the leading provider of home care in the area.
The company, based in Heaton Moor, recently secured its registration with the Care Quality Commission which allows it to deliver regulated domiciliary care packages to people in Stockport.
Alongside this, Amna and her team are also offering non-regulated services including domestic and commercial cleaning and shopping.
Amna, who previously worked as a paralegal with law firms in Manchester, said: “It was a big step to leave the legal profession, but I wanted to follow my passion for home care as well as running my own business.
“I had studied health and social care while at college and had also had the experience of having to find care for my mum a couple of years ago.
“I started to research the home care market and SureCare stood out.
“There is so much involved in setting up a business in this sector, but SureCare impressed me with their industry knowledge and support. It’s great to be part of the SureCare family.”
Amna’s team includes experienced Registered Manager Michelle Calvert and three further care assistants.
“Now that we can roll out a full range of regulated care services, we are looking to recruit additional care assistants to meet the expected demand.
“I am hugely passionate about providing local people with the highest quality care. I want to build a successful business, create jobs and become an important part of the local community. I want SureCare to be the first name people think of when they are looking for home care services for a loved one.
“As well as running the business, I am also delivering care along with the rest of my team. It is incredibly rewarding when you see the smiles on people’s faces.
“The services we provide to clients are enabling them to live as independent a life as possible in their own homes, something that makes a real difference to the quality of their lives.”
