REMINDER: The clocks go back tonight, meaning some of us get an extra hour in bed 🙌 and those of us on the night shift have a slightly longer night 😐

We are now heading towards winter, with less hours of daylight and darker nights drawing in. It's also colds and flu season, which usually sees our sector and the NHS under extra 'winter pressure'.

This Menopause Awareness Day we're encouraging our carers who might be experiencing symptoms to look after their wellbeing.💜

Giving a thought to self-care can always be helpful and what's often recommended to tackle menopause symptoms is 'lifestyle medicine' - looking after your sleep, diet, exercise and stress awareness.

And if being told to look after your sleep, diet, exercise and stress gives you anger management issues, we hear you! It's not going to solve everything, but it may help.🙂

Take a look at our blog 10 wellbeing tips for care assistants for general guidance, and tips on sleep and staying active. https://bit.ly/47JmzAk

Her story demonstrates the value that individuals over 50 bring to the care sector, and how rewarding it can be.

💬"It’s one of the best jobs I’ve ever done, I get a lot out of it, knowing the people on my round are being looked after.”

A gentle reminder for our team this 💜
Caring can be an emotionally challenging job.

And it can hit carers and branch staff hard when a much-loved client is receiving end-of-life care, or dies. If you've experienced bereavement recently, read our blog about coping with grief when caring ends. https://bit.ly/48uuxhs Look after yourselves, and each other.
