I work in an Aged Care Facility and do Home Care for the aged in the community in small town about twenty kilometers away. Ive been there nearly eighteen months now and I’m still on the bottom of the ladder; cleaning , kitchen and PCA but mostly the cleaning and kitchen. The boss said to me last week “but you are getting good at it”. The Home Care is much better I only do personal care no housework….yea. There is only thirty low care resident in the facility so there is only a small staff, but unfortunately there all female and you no what happens when you put a bunch of women together, all from the same small country town and your not the local. If the rest of the place is anything to go by it will be another twenty years or so before I make it to the next rung on the ladder.
