I started my career in communications, which has shaped how I work today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<span class=\"dots\">&#8230;<\/span><span class=\"more\">\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I care deeply about clear, honest communication and building strong, collaborative relationships that make change feel achievable and meaningful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have led a range of large-scale programmes, including redesigning pathways, reducing waiting times, and working closely with providers to improve how services are delivered in practice. I enjoy bringing structure to complexity and turning ideas into practical, high-quality solutions that genuinely work for both teams and patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What motivates me most is improving people\u2019s experience of services, whether that\u2019s making access easier, supporting teams to work better together, or just making sure things feel a bit more human along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outside of work I like to stay active with running, yoga, and walking my dog Penguin!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n<button id=\"myBtn31\" class=\"btn\">Cite\u0219te mai mult<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns col_bios_last is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column service-item is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" src=\"https:\/\/beta.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/KeziahOliveira.png\" alt=\"Keziah Oliveira\" class=\"wp-image-9787\" style=\"width:100px;height:100px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/KeziahOliveira.png 301w, https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/KeziahOliveira-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/KeziahOliveira-12x12.png 12w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"larger wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Keziah Oliveira<\/strong><br>Administrative Manager<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"clear wp-block-paragraph\">I have been part of Skylight Psychiatry for two years and currently work as the Administrative Manager.

After finishing my dance career, I moved into the care sector, initially working as a carer before progressing into care administration and later joining Skylight Psychiatry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What I enjoy most about working at Skylight is that every day is different. It is incredibly rewarding to be part of a service that makes a real difference to patients, and I am always looking for ways we can continue to improve. I believe some of the best ideas come from listening to the people who use and deliver the service, so feedback from both patients and my team is a really important part of how I work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Outside of work, I enjoy exploring new places, travelling and spending time with my son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>\n\n\n\n<button id=\"myBtn31\" class=\"btn\">Cite\u0219te mai mult<\/button>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column service-item is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"301\" height=\"301\" src=\"https:\/\/beta.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/CaronAger.png\" alt=\"Caron Ager\" class=\"wp-image-7710\" style=\"width:100px;height:100px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/CaronAger.png 301w, https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/CaronAger-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.skylightpsychiatry.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/CaronAger-12x12.png 12w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 301px) 100vw, 301px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"larger wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Caron Ager<\/strong><br>Patient Experience and Client Relations Lead<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"clear wp-block-paragraph\">I have over a decade of professional experience in the NHS in both hospital and Integrated Care Board (ICB) settings.
