Just a Carer

Knowledge, Dignity and Compassion, these are the values at the very heart of Lapis Care, your local domiciliary Care provider, who continue to raise the profile of care.

Our new Registered manager, Lena LeMesurier has taken the reins and is continuing to deliver the high standard of care, that you would expect from an award-winning care provider. Our Director, Liz Blacklock, has been given a chance to focus on changes that are desperately needed in the care industry and awareness of the professionalism of care.

Recently appointed as a Director of National Association Care and Support workers (NACAS), Liz is creating professional relationships with Care England, Championing Social Care and even visiting the House of Lords in order to change the public perception of Social Care and its workforce. In doing this, we want to implement the registration of ‘Care Professional’s’ as the legal title for a ‘carer’. No more “they’re just a carer”.

Everyone has been, or will experience, care at some point in their lives, even if not for themselves but for family or friends.

Carers should be known worldwide as professionals. Their work involves completing a person’s whole day, from washing, dressing, medication, food preparation, socialisation, organisation, cleaning and so much more. The physical and emotional strain for a carer is tough and the pure passion and empathy that is behind the work they do is outstanding.

No matter who you are, our health is something that we must look after and unfortunately is often out of our control. A carer will step in at some of the hardest parts of a person’s life, to make things easier and help them continue the best quality of life. However, for years a negative stigma has been formed around the care profession and we have heard it too many times, ‘Just a carer’. Lapis Care want this to stop.

In order to make a change locally we have to initiate changes nationally. This is the time now to make difference and spread the awareness and acknowledgment of ‘Care Professionals’.  

If you would like to join this professional Care team or benefit from the services we provide, please visit us at www.lapiscare.com or call us on 01489 890016.

Mary Jackson was born on April 9, 1921. An American mathematician and aerospace engineer at the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), which in 1958 was succeeded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). She worked at Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, for most of her career. She started as a computer at the segregated West Area Computing division in 1951. She took advanced engineering classes and, in 1958, became NASA's first black female engineer.

So need to create a wing-shaped part for a gunpla, and what should walk across my search but this:

Thanks, random internet stranger, because now this GP-02Fb modification will have a NASA/LANGLEY LS(1)-0421 AIRFOIL for part of its wing.

April 19 Remembering Test pilot Scott Crossfield... Seventeen years ago, April 19, 2006 Naval officer and NACA test pilot Albert Scott Crossfield passed away in a thunderstorm aircraft accident. Arlington National Cemetery became his resting place. Between 1950 & 1955 Scott Crossfield was an aeronautical research pilot  for NACA, which would become NASA in 1958. At Edwards AFB, Crossfield tested most experimental jet aircraft, including the Bell X-1, X-4, X-5 and the Douglass D558-II-Skyrocket in which he became the first pilot to fly at Mach 2.0 twice the speed of sounds in 1953. Crossfield became chief engineering test pilot at North American and was the first to fly to rocket-powered X-15 hypersonic research aircraft during it s first unpowered glide in June 1959 and on its first powered flight in September 1959. Crossfield flew 14 of the 199 total X-15 flight tests and survived a  catastrophic explosion  during a ground test in June 1960. Crossfield always wore a Rolex GMT-master 6542 Pepsi pilot watch, which can be seen in this 1959 photo where he was holding a scale model of the North American X-15 hypersonic research aircraft.

"The Bell Aircraft Corporation X-1-2 #6063 aircraft on the ramp at NACA High Speed Flight Research Station located on the South Base of Muroc Army Air Field in 1947. The X-1-2 flew until October 23, 1951, completing 74 glide and powered flights with nine different pilots. The aircraft has white paint and the NACA tail band. The black Xs are reference markings for tracking purposes. They were widely used on NACA aircraft in the early 1950s."

Navigating the Pros and Cons of NACA for 1099 Contractors and Small Business Owners

Embarking on the journey towards homeownership as a 1099 contractor or small business owner can be both exciting and challenging. While programs like the Neighborhood Assistance Corporation of America (NACA) offer promising opportunities for underserved communities, it’s essential to understand the limitations alongside the benefits. Here’s a closer look at the pros and cons of NACA for…

Ridley Releases New Carbon Arena FAST, Aluminum Arena A

As we start to head into the next Olympic cycle, we are going to start to see more brands launching new track bikes to meet the requirements needed for bikes to be used in Paris next year. For Ridley, that means the new Arena FAST, but also includes the Arena A for the rest of us too. The Arena FAST began development along with the Dean FAST time trial bike, as they share a similar design…

Dorothy Vaughan was born on September 20, 1910. An American mathematician and human computer who worked for the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA), and NASA, at Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia. In 1949, she became acting supervisor of the West Area Computers, the first African-American woman to receive a promotion and supervise a group of staff at the center. She later was promoted officially to the position of supervisor. During her 28-year career, Vaughan prepared for the introduction of computers in the early 1960s by teaching herself and her staff the programming language of Fortran. She later headed the programming section of the Analysis and Computation Division (ACD) at Langley.
