yes there are , but mostly for those who work internally , we who work mostly in direct contact with service users do not usually have the time to go for social activities due to the high demand of care needed to be provided daily

Yes

Because it is the best care agency i've worked with so far.

Be flexible , caring ,empathetic and willing to work well with the elderly and vulnerable in the society.
