“Who Cares? We Do.” will probably be unlike any other book you’ve ever read before.
It’s written by us for our fellow Carers, the Cared-For, their loved-ones and for people who don’t really know what it’s like to work in this profession. We look at many aspects of the Industry and give our honest opinions on how things really are, using real life observations and recollections.
This book is about Care in the UK, although we're sure readers from all over the world will relate to many of our themes and experiences.
There are uplifting stories of Carers and the Cared-For who make inspiring differences to people’s lives, either in tiny or big ways.
Many chapters are funny, sad, shocking, embarrassing or unusual. Or it’s a combination of all of them! All of these are written with confidentiality in mind so gender, geography and appearances have sometimes been changed to make allowances for this.
We explore issues that are unknown, ignored, or hidden from the public and pose thought-provoking recommendations and questions that need debating.
Some chapters give guidance and help on those who look after loved-ones, or are thinking of placing them in a Care Home. We help you to ask questions and seek support from places that you might not have thought of.
As you can tell, the subject matter is varied and we’ve covered much ground by focusing on compassion, insight, relevance and raising awareness about this incredibly diverse profession.
