As we done the protective armour that our work requires.

We shut ourselves off from a little bit of our own humanity.

It’s not possible to insulate ourselves from the impact of other people’s lives.

Some people do it for power over others a sick kind of vanity.

Some people have an evangelical bent, and think that they can change the world.

Some don’t really know why it’s just the way their life unfurled.

Some fall into it because they are square pegs in round holes.

Some are in it for the money they are misguided souls.

But all of them add something to the lives that they support.

A skill or an outlook a way off just being, there isn’t a prescription for the right sort.

It’s not about being clones individuality is better than being like the rest.

The people we support are as individual as the staff, and individuality is best.

We respect the right of people to be different that same right applies to all.

Care workers are people too and we don’t all come from the same mold.
