    Nursed a patient today that was so depressed they’d lost the ability to wash or feed themselves. Spent over an hour bathing them and talking through their emotions. I may not have a degree, but being a care assistant is NOT unskilled.

        And it's scandalously poorly paid, isn't it? Nurses are underpaid for their skillset and level of responsibility, and carers even more so.

        Hey Jade, both my parents were in care. My mother-in-law is currently in a dementia home. I have the greatest respect for what you guys do. I couldn’t do it. Trying to rank people I find abhorrent but in terms of value, carers are worth their weight. Thank you for what you do.

        Yes Jade, this exactly sums up how I feel too. In NZ we had a landmark decision that now values carers, & acknowledges the skills required & they are paid much more. Its interesting that in a market economy, it took legislation to pay for a job most people don't want to do.

        It's a busy job where you constantly multi-task & a good care worker will usually work with many & get to know & support them physically & emotionally as well as provide dignity in life & in death.This is hugely important yet so undervalued. It can't all be trained & is priceless
