#DonutForgetTheCarers Challenge - Get Involved.

Since we entered into this world pandemic of Covid19 it has influenced my blog posts and highlighted the the new life we have had to adapt to. If you are a freelancer like me then you are probably at home with no work or had to do a different job role.
It has become a life of anxiety, worry and bewilderment for many having to get use to how their respective care homes have had to  adapt to isolating their beloved residents, resident's having to cope with not seeing anyone from the outside and staff having to cope with this  and increased bereavements.

Care home managers having to juggle with keeping the home going and trying to coordinate everything else they have thrown at them ,new admissions not being Covid 19 tested or if they have been and are positive this information in some cases has not been shared and this then causes issues for the entire home.

For these reasons and many more ,I wanted to raise the profile of the front-line staff -carers, activity coordinators, cleaners and all care home staff  by acknowledging them and congratulating them on their sterling work ethic in this very  hard time. We may not be at war but we are at war with an unseen force the Covid19 virus and care staff are on the front-line putting their lives on the line everyday.

I wish to highlight care homes in particular and yes, I acknowledge all what NHS staff do and they have shout outs at a national level,deservedly so but lets not forget the care home staff and the carers and activity coordinators in particular.

So I have started the #DonutForgetTheCarers challenge -movement  encouraging all to buy a few sweet treats and knock on the doors of local care homes  around them and wishing all the care home staff well and acknowledging the amazing job they do each and everyday. Please share this far and wide and share on social media  with the hastag #DonutForgetTheCarers #Lovejoycentre .
