Philippa O'Shaughnessy is Registered Manager at Apollo Care Blackpool (Live-in Care).
I am the Registered Manager at Apollo Care Blackpool, a position I’ve proudly held since 2023. With almost 15 years of experience working in diverse care settings, I bring a deep understanding and passion for delivering exceptional care to our customers in the community.
Being part of the team in Blackpool is incredibly rewarding, and I am dedicated to fostering an environment where excellence is the standard. I take great pride in leading a team that consistently demonstrates our core values—caring, supporting, empowering, and inspiring through every interaction they have.
My goal is to maintain and enhance the high standards we have set, ensuring that our customers always feel valued and supported. Outside of work, I’m a mum of two and love spending quality time with my family.
There’s no place like home. We get it. That’s why keeping your loved ones there is our goal. At Apollo Care Blackpool, we bring a world of care services home to you and the hearts you love.
Health is one thing, happiness is another. We want you and your family to live happily and feel fulfilled with the peace of mind that you’re receiving the quality home care your loved one deserves. Designed by a qualified community nurse, each of our care packages has both health and happiness at the heart of them.
