We are excited to announce that Janet Mercer, one of our Senior Care Specialists, was featured on CareLineLive!
Janet joined our fast growing team at Bridgewater Home Care Halton back in October 2022 and has been going from strength to strength utilising her knowledge in medication administration, correct dosage, noticing changes to medication and their adverse reactions. CareLineLive took a keen interest on her change of career and requested an interview from Janet so that her story can be shared to make a positive impact on anyone who wants to make a change in their profession.
In the interview Janet said “Working as a Care Specialist has been incredibly rewarding. Every day, I get to work one-on-one with clients and provide them with the care and support they need. It’s a job that requires a lot of patience, empathy, and compassion, but it’s so worth it to know that I’m making a real difference in people’s lives. Although the pay is considerably different from my previous job, getting up in the morning and enjoying the job I do is a ‘money can’t buy’ feeling I am extremely grateful for. My colleagues are amazing and I always feel appreciated by them, and my employer”
