Tracey McKean, one of our Support Services Managers, career journey:
"I started as a back shift Domestic Assistant at the old Dumfries & Galloway Royal Infirmary (DGRI) and worked as a chamber maid at a local hotel.
I was promoted to Night Duty Manager, resigned from my Domestic Back shift.
I really missed the people and the department.
In 2002 I saw an advert for an NHS Hotel Services Supervisor.
I now had the skills and experience required for this post and relished the thought of being back home at old DGRI.

I worked as a Support Services Supervisor for 20 years. I love being a Supervisor working with Staff and patients based in DGRI.
In 2022 a Support Services Managers post was advertised. I was comfortable in my Supervisory role, it was daunting applying but I was ready for a new challenge.
I am immensely proud of the part I now play in managing our recruitment process. Our staff are our most important resource.”
