Carer Review

My roles includes personal care, Meal preparation, Mobility assistance, Medication support, domestic duties,
transfers, shopping. I provide care for service users and promote their well being and independence. I safeguard, report any concerns and make sure they are in a safe environment. I work with people with Learning difficulties, Dementia and various other illnesses and disabilities.

In my opinion the Programme is structured very well. I feel I have sufficient time between my online lessons to do assignments. The delivery of the work and how everything is formatted makes it relatively easy to understand. Also if there is anything I have difficulty with there are guides and my tutor is always at hand to help me navigate.

As an organisation on a whole, my employer and designated staff are at hand to help if I need it. My branch manager and field supervisor are very supportive and always check my progress. They arrange my work schedule in a way where I have enough time to do my studies and should any extra need arise they make adjustments.

I receive ample support from my training provider. Not only does my tutor make sure the content I need is readily available to me. But also I receive newsletter on safeguarding for example which is very useful as it keeps me updated and makes me aware of extra relevant information.

I believe that this qualification better equips me for my role. Example I am learning the laws and regulations in more depth so it helps me deal with situations better and never work outside of the scope of my role. This qualification also reinforces my responsibilities to the service user and I can give accurate information if needed.

Yes

I myself was recommended by a friend and I find this job flexible. I receive continual support and training. I have opportunities to further my development and career. I feel I am making a valuable contribution to the service users and their families. I feel appreciated and always get feedback.
