I'm currently working as a care assistant in an elderly home, and while I like the job I've realised there is so much more I can do. I feel that while personal care at the home is given to a high standard, the social aspect is slightly forgotten.
I would love to be able to start offering a service independantly that would focus on the social side of care. For example alot of clients are religious but have no means of getting to church. Ideally I would offer this service to anyone needing help to get out and about even if it's to go for a walk.
So my question is am I able to do this independantly? I know that there are social care companies available but they do not cover everyone, and alot of people just don't have the choice.
Thanks to eveyone who answers, and thankyou for having the patience to read it all!
