Care Myths Busted

You need experience…..
Care companies are looking for staff who are caring, good communicators and have enthusiasm for caring for others. We can fully train you and support you to get your Level 2 Health and Social Care Diploma, so no need to worry about being unqualified.

You might have more experience than you think. Have you cared for a relative, popped in for a chat with an elderly neighbour or supported someone through a difficult time? All of this is great experience, it doesn’t have to be paid work on your CV.

The experience you get in care work may help you move on towards management, nursing, psychology or even training.

It’s for girls!
No way! I’m 18 years old and have been a support worker for Dave-a 19 year old adult with a learning disability- for 6 months now. I support him to do activities, cook and go shopping each week. It’s the perfect job for me, and I’m the perfect carer for him!

You need to wipe people’s bums!
There are plenty of jobs in care that don’t require any bum wiping! However in some areas you may need to carry out intimate personal care. If that’s not your thing, We’ll try to match you to a different type of care work.

So, don’t leave it any longer.
Contact us, we’ll answer any questions and if you think it’s the job for you, we’ll get you started on your new career.
We can train you, help with CV and interview skills and organise job interviews, and it’s all for free!
