Angela Keane, domestic supervisor

Each and every person who works at The Christie performs a valuable role which directly links to patient care. Whether it is a nurse delivering chemotherapy treatments, a member of the administration team sending out an appointment letter, a surgeon performing a robotic procedure, the domestic teams ensuring our wards are spotlessly clean, or an IT engineer keeping our computer systems running, there is a huge variety of roles that come together to make The Christie special.

All our staff go to tremendous lengths to help each and every one of our patients and together: We are The Christie.

Angela Keane started at The Christie back in 1984 and recently celebrated her 40th work anniversary.

In 2018, Angela experienced the difference The Christie makes first hand when she donated stem cells to her brother who was being treated for leukaemia. A stem cell transplant replaces damaged blood cells with healthy ones from a donor.

As a domestic supervisor, she and her team make sure that the hospital runs smoothly. This includes things like cleaning and making sure that anything that’s broken is fixed quickly.

I always knew that The Christie was a very special place, but what we do became very real in that moment in a way it hadn’t before. The size of the hospital and the number of services we offer has changed over the years, but the family atmosphere hasn’t. I really love working here and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
