At Sublime Care, we have the privilege of working alongside exceptional people who bring not only skill but heart and empathy to their work. Trish Hugh, one of our dedicated support workers, stands out for her unwavering commitment and passion. As she celebrates her fifth anniversary with us, we’re excited to share Trish’s journey—one filled with memorable moments, personal growth, and a strong sense of family.
Trish’s passion for helping others has been clear from the start. Over the years, she’s witnessed incredible progress as participants reach milestones in their lives, big and small. Seeing their smiles light up after a new achievement is what motivates her, reminding her each day that her work truly makes a difference. “Seeing the people I support smile makes me know I’ve made a positive impact,” she often says, and it’s this mindset that drives her forward even on the most challenging days.
Of course, Trish has encountered her share of challenges, and she’s faced each one with resilience and grace. She sees challenges as opportunities to grow, and through them, she has become a trusted pillar of strength and patience for both her participants and colleagues. Trish believes that, in support work, challenges unlock our potential and teach us invaluable lessons in patience, adaptability, and empathy.
One experience that stands out in Trish’s journey was supporting a participant on a family holiday. From sunrise to sunset, she watched as laughter, love, and connection unfolded, and she felt honored to be part of such a joyful occasion. For Trish, it wasn’t just about supporting the participant; it was a reminder of her own love for family, and the importance of cherishing those special moments that bring people together.
Beyond her role at Sublime Care, Trish balances the responsibility of being a devoted guardian to her granddaughters. Her dedication to both her work and family is awe-inspiring, and it’s clear that the values she brings into her work—empathy, patience, and reliability—extend into her personal life as well. Her compassion shines through, allowing her to create a safe, supportive environment where her participants feel heard, valued, and respected.
Trish is also committed to sharing her wisdom with new support workers. She knows the work can be both challenging and rewarding, and her advice for newcomers is simple yet powerful: “Relax and be yourself. Remember, each person has their own dreams and goals.” Trish understands that every day in this field is different, and it’s this diversity that makes support work so fulfilling.
As she looks to the future, Trish remains as passionate as ever about making a difference in the lives of those she supports. She knows that her work goes beyond providing care; it’s about empowering individuals to live their lives to the fullest, no matter the obstacles they face. With her characteristic warmth and dedication, Trish inspires us all to embrace the journey, cherish the smiles, and remember the value of compassion and respect.
