TRUE OR FALSE? 🏑 Care Home Mythbusting

We recently visited Alexander Care Home to speak with Registered Manager Lindsey and put some common myths about working in Adult Social Care to the test.

Do you need qualifications to work in care?
Is care work flexible?
Is care a career?

Lindsey answers all this and more. Having started her own journey as a Care Assistant before progressing into management, she's perfectly placed to share what a career in care is really like.

If you've ever considered a role in care, now could be the perfect time to take the next step. We're currently recruiting for a variety of roles across the sector.

Speaking of myth-busting, did you know we run our very own myth-busting sessions for those looking to start a career in adult social care, and our next one is tomorrow! Register below and check out our website for more great resources about Adult Social Care.
