Overview
What you will study
Working in care homes can be incredibly emotionally and physically draining at the best of times. The pandemic is placing significant pressure on us all.
My Home Life - Care Home 'Check-in and Chat' course offered by City, University of London has a proven track record supporting care home practitioners to ‘take a breath’, to gain strength and share ideas with peers.
Supported by highly experienced professional facilitators, these are confidential groups where you can share your experiences or if you want, just listen to others. For many, these groups create a new source of support which can last into the future.
