Description

Kate Faulke never expected to become a home care worker, but after leaving her senior role in the NHS, she found caring for people in their own homes to be a more complex job than she anticipated. Despite her initial intention to maintain a professional distance, she developed strong friendships and connections with her 'customers', witnessing the drama and humour in their everyday lives. Her memoir offers a candid insight into the care profession, revealing the challenges facing the NHS and the care system, while celebrating the impact of caring on both those who provide and receive it.
