Hello, I’m Isabelle,
I joined Home Instead Central Hampshire in 2022 as a Care Professional and in 2023 I became a Field Supervisor. In this blog, I would like to take you on my journey.
Initially, I knew I wanted a ‘people-centred’ role, ideally one where I could help others and learn something new. Care was something I had thought about for a while, and when I saw the advert for Home Instead Central Hampshire it resonated with me.
As a carer, my journey began with a desire to make a positive impact on people’s lives. From assisting individuals with their daily activities to providing emotional support, being a carer was a humbling experience that very quickly taught me how easily something small like a cup of tea could make a difference to someone’s day.
The evolution of a Care Professional transitioning to a field supervisor role was a natural progression driven by a desire to extend my impact beyond direct caregiving. As a supervisor, I have now completed training that allows me to sign off other Care Professionals for medication handling. Also, I now have the opportunity to guide and support not only the individuals we care for but also the dedicated Care Professionals who work tirelessly to ensure their well-being.
Benefits of Being a Care Professional with Home Instead Central Hampshire:
Being a Care Professional is a journey I’m immensely grateful for—a journey that continues to shape me both personally and professionally. Care isn’t just a job; it’s a calling—a path that leads to personal fulfilment and the chance to positively impact the lives of others.
Thank you for reading, and if you are considering a career in care, please contact Home Instead Central Hampshire.
Many thanks,
Isabelle
