WORKING AT THE CARE COLLECTION – RACHEL, HOME CARE ASSISTANT

Jan 10, 2019

We recently asked one of our fantastic Home Carer Assistants, Rachel (pictured with one of her Clients), to provide us with some feedback on her experience of working at The Care Collection. This is what she said:

“It is a privilege to say that I work at The Care Collection! They say that if you love your job, then you won’t work a day in your life and I now find this to be true. I have a career where I love both the rewarding job I do and the company I work for. 

At the time of writing this I have only worked for The Care Collection for 3 months but already the differences I see compared to previous care companies make me glad I made the move. When I wasn’t happy at my previous company and was debating a change, I was naturally unsure of the whether working at The Care Collection was as good as it seemed. But I need not have worried! Throughout the whole recruitment process  the company have been extremely supportive and knowledgeable and they have delivered on all the things which set them apart.

Joining The Care Collection is the best career move I have made. I am rewarded for my efforts, my hard work is recognised and I get to build great relationships with my Clients through the minimum 1 hour calls. We all work as a team and everything I was told at the point of recruitment is true.

My role involves supporting Clients of all ages and abilities to be able to live independently at home. My job is varied which is something I really enjoy. In my day to day role, I become numerous different people – I am a therapist when I carry out physiotherapy with my Clients, I am a chef when I prepare meals for my Clients, I am a friend when I join my Clients on shopping trips and I become family.

For anyone who is looking to join a care company with strong values and a fantastic culture, who have the best interest of their Clients and staff at heart, I would recommend speaking to The Care Collection!”
