The Exit Interview Lied to You: Why Good People Leave Care Homes
Are you confusing niceness with kindness in your care home leadership? In this episode of Inside the Care Home from Care Home DigiHive, our host, Robin, is joined by Samantha Crawley (EQ Care) and Anish Patel (Oaklands Rest Home) for a candid conversation about what really drives staff recruitment, retention and workplace culture in social care. Building a thriving care home culture isn't about fancy break rooms or modern buildings, it’s about intentional design, psychological safety and being brave enough to lead with kindness over niceness.
