What does Care Work Involve?
Care Assistants support people daily with practical tasks including shopping, housework, laundry and even personal admin. In most cases, Care Assistants largely support people with their personal care needs. Personal Care is intimate support that will mean helping a person to wash or dress, use the toilet or prepare meals. It could also involve helping someone take medicines or manage incontinence.
It’s important that we don’t pretend that care work isn’t sometimes upsetting and tiring – it is. But, it’s also one of the most rewarding jobs anyone can do.
As a care assistant, you have a unique opportunity to bring a ray of sunshine into the life of someone that may be isolated, lonely, in pain or distressed. You can bring peace of mind to family carers that, as much as they would like to, can’t always be there with their beloved mum, dad or grandparent. You can bring hope and inspiration or even just company, kind words and a cup of tea. And, at the end of a hard day, you will sleep well knowing that you have made a real difference. That’s not a job – it’s a vocation.
If this sounds interesting to you, then please don’t hesitate to get in touch. We are more than happy to talk the role over with you.
