Tricky0212 Posted March 28, 2020 Share Posted March 28, 2020 Yeah, me and my brother being doing Wills for people all week so it’s all done remotely without them leaving their homes etc. Been doing quite a few free for NHS workers too which they’ve been grateful for - never been so busy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also staying at my Girlfriends and her family which is odd but we are getting on well, Rachel is still at work as she works for the NHS so my days are spent at the moment trying to entertain her 5 year old. Also it's a bit odd as Rachel and her parents are all Vegan and Gluten Free, it will do my diet good I think! I donated £1000 to the local foodbank here as people believe it or not have been stealing out of the bins provided to put food in We are in a tiny market town and the pubs are all giving away Beer for Free for donations to the foodbank, the average age of the population here is well into the 70s. Stay safe everyone Adam what a gent,. a very generous thing to do. I know exactly where you are in this photo, a lovely part of Suffolk. Stay safe mate!

I have been running from service to service trying to fill gaps where there is limited staff numbers left to cover. Even slept with my mobile on the pillow as calls and texts are coming in through the night, I am fucking knackered. Now having to print up ID for new staff as the cops are stopping people up here as some of these daft bastards plainly ignore the advice that Sturgeon and Johnson gave us last night. Hows everyone else getting on ? How are you @Blacko is certainly is on its knees and feel your pain. I have been stopped early hours and showed my letter and ID. Had to remind the officer to not touch my paperwork! Same here, calls coming through 24/7 with crisis. A lot of online grooming on the increase as they are isolating and using new methods I feel so sorry for the children on CP and CIN as they are at significant risk and men and women trapped at home with an abusive partner. It will go on for some time and if you ever want to chat as it is emotionally exhausting then PM me and I will send you my number. Keep safe and look after yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The care industry is on high alert at present as the virus seems to be picking up the speed which the experts predicted. I have had to contact social workers to draft up letters vouching for carers which I’ve instructed to them to produce along with their photo ID. I’ve also had to telephone clients family members and tell them that they may have to provide extra care themselves if required. I work in the Lanarkshire area in Scotland and we seem to be alright for now. The situation in the South looks extremely worrying.

Haha I don’t work for a care company, I’m freelance funded through local authorities. I assist families who don’t use providers, I promoted SDS up and down UK when they first started to move people out of care home in 2000. Twice the quality of care at half the price.

PureDogToffee Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 I had a heart attack the other week, thank fuck fer the nhs, they were all amazing, from the Ambulance crew getting me in there fast an the surgeons getting me on the table and the lovely nurses looking after me on the ward. All of them were outstanding, was a bit shocked at how little they get paid. I for one wouldn't mind paying a bit more national insurance to give them all a decent pay rise. Sat at home for a few weeks watching porn hub an netflix. Then back to work fixing heating systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
