What inspired you to join Right at Home?
The good reviews online.
What does a typical day look like for you?
I start with my morning job, and then in the evening I go and support my two clients.
What do you enjoy or find most rewarding about your role?
Spending time with the clients and listening to their stories and them listening and taking an interest in mine, especially when we have gone on holiday to the same place, and hearing their stories from 30 years ago... and comparing how things have changed!
Can you share a memorable moment or achievement that you have experienced as a caregiver?
Trying a clients baked mince pie and critiquing like we was on Masterchef.
What’s the best piece of advice you have ever received?
Everything will make sense in the end.

As you get older...your back isn't what it was.
