So, the sun keeps shining, and at Apollo Care South Liverpool our spirits remain high.
Over the past week stories have continued to flood in about how much support and respect we have received for what a great job we are doing in the field.
From “Hero” Easter eggs being handed out in the supermarket, for one of our carers who was getting shopping for a client, to taxi drivers stopping in the street and offering one of our carers a lift.
One gentleman (who would like to remain anonymous) very generously took the time to make face shields for each of our team!
Such acts of kindness are so inspirational and motivating and show that whilst there are those that are considered “Key” workers, the amazing support we are being given is the “Key” to a successful transition through these testing times.
Perhaps more importantly though, what about our clients?
The sun is shining, but what use is that if you can’t leave the house?
Some of our clients will be feeling the effects of isolation more than others, and we have to be prepared to be dealing with low mood and anxiety.
We have to be their sunshine, they may rely on us to inspire and motivate them.
