Points to consider
Sometimes there's a wait when calling for help, even with enough staff on shift.
There has been the odd occasion when there has been a long wait, but staff usually pop in and say they are coming.
Only basic group activities and one-on-one sessions with the coordinator, so the job is mostly routine care.
People were supported with a variety of activities which included group activities and time spend with the activities coordinator on a one to one basis.
Just standard training like online modules and some in-person sessions, no specialist courses or qualifications funded.
