The people &
the role:
Love working with the clients, getting to know their
personalities, their life stories and doing my best for
them.
It is a pleasure to work in a sector that strives to better
people's lives and it is a privilege to work with and
alongside people …The joy of doing something that is
worthwhile and feeds the soul.
The way you can get to know people in detail. You
know that person so much more than perhaps their OT,
nurse or physio. You know what makes their heart sing,
what pains them, you share jokes, joys. You coach
them, comfort and believe in them. Yet that work goes
unseen and under valued. I felt like a servant on many
occasions for some people. Invisible.
