Thank you for the positive feedback about your training and working with colleagues along with the people you supported. Unfortunately recruitment in social care remains an issue and as such we try our best to ensure timely cover for vacant hours. Managers can only request cover for vacant hours from existing staff due to the working time directive and our opt out scheme. The well being of our workforce is off paramount importance so thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
