Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis:
5/5
I am working as a support worker and I am doing floater shifts as well which is a kind of team lider but we call it floater at my workplace. In my day-to-day day basis I am providing care to our service users, administer medication, provide hot or cold meals and drinks depending on the service users choices.
To what extent do you enjoy your programme?

I love everything what I am learning or the updates I go over and in this way I can develop myself into offering to my service users the best care they need.
