A DAY IN THE LIFE
OF A CARER
Interview with Alisha K.
How long have you been with the
UK Care Team?
Nearly a year
- What was it that got you into the care industry?
I did some private care work before joining the UK Care Team and have enjoyed the journey. I’ve always had a passion for care and find it easy to talk to people. I wanted to help people and found this extremely fulfilling. - Describe your typical day as a careworker?
My day usually consists of visiting 5 to 6 clients and I use my bicycle to travel to them. I support the clients by assisting them with having breakfast, a bath and with domestic tasks like
washing dishes etc.
- What’s your favorite part of this job?
Meeting new faces, seeing my clients happy, putting a smile on their face which is fulfilling. - What would you say to anyone considering a career in care with theUK Care Team?
You’ve got to really have it within you to make a difference in people’s lives’. Having a good heart and wanting to put a smile on someone’s face. Every day is different with different challenges but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
