Back to Age UK

No 2 days the same,a great supportive team to work with

Volume of work to get through

Clients and work colleagues unsiciable

Unsoicable hours lack of communication not seeing my family.

The clients

All the walking

I enjoy working in care it’s a lovely feeling knowing you are making an individuals day better by supporting them in there choices of clothes and food

There isn’t really any bad things

I work alone and enjoy seeing the clients

When I lose a client

Being out and about working on my own

To much heavy lifting and going up and down stairs with heavy bags

no weekend work can work if u want

Haveing weekends of

Walking over 3 miles a day

The residents and the people I work alongside

Stressful, sometimes feel unappreciated and undervalued

The people I work for clients not age uk

They only worry about money. Don’t really care about the clients when this covid 19 started the old folks were dumped and all staff made redundant .They said old people were always going to be vunrable so didn’t want to bother with them .so don’t have a good word forage uk

most of the time theres no pressure to get work out of the door and the work is not too heavy for a person of my age

I enjoy meeting new service users and helping them with daily tasks and listening to there stories of the past. Taking care of them.

Office doesn’t seem to care about there staff or listening to us.

Meeting different people

Long shifts .. nil communication

The people I look after

My long hours

Looking after the elderly

Medication

Making a difference in people's lifes.

Sometimes feel we are under payed from what we do. Not well informed by HR

Meeting and helping people

Lack of training
