I also work in a care home, and its a lovely place to work, we are caring, all our residents are looked after to a high standard with dignity and respect, as to are the relatives and visitors, who know where the tea making things are, we are there for them when they are told there love one as passed away, and are supported as well as our residents (we are residential not nursing) staff on there days off volunteer to help with trips out, and our residents run the quality circle meetings to make decisions about THERE home, and I have job satisfaction, I agree some homes are not up to scratch, but equally there is a lot of great homes.
