This week I talk with Karolina Gerlich, who has worked in live-in care and home care and is also a founding director of NACAS- National Association Of Care and Support Workers.
This is quite a long interview but the time flew by as we dicusssed the difference between live-in care and home care and what could be done to build a team environment in these quite often lonely jobs. I also learn more about NACAS and how they are working towards creating a national day for care givers. Karolina beautifully describes it as a "celebration of care delivery"
We also cover one of my favourite topics - work life balance and how people working in care often need to be reminded to take holidays, breaks and even to eat! I'm sure Karolina's words will resonate with so many.
