Greetings from the new month of May! We're all eager for warmer days and the taste of summer Let's hold onto hope - it will come! April passed by in a blur, almost unnoticed The end of the first quarter means a lot of administrative work for the business, but it also reveals the amazing results we've achieved together Well done, everyone, for your hard work every day Let's enter the new month with renewed energy and motivation for the weeks ahead! As the summer months approach, offering more opportunities to enjoy the outdoors and have fun, let's maintain our dedication to excellence
Meanwhile, we're busy planning our annual Summer Party, which promises to be as fantastic as ever! And there's much more to come

As we gear up for the busy Holiday Season from May to September, it's crucial to ensure our clients receive uninterrupted care Please note that you may be asked to cover for colleagues on leave and vice versa Ensure holiday plans are approved before making commitments, as demand for leave may be high
While we strive to accommodate all requests, priority may be given based on business needs if there are overlapping requests We appreciate your flexibility and understanding in such cases
Since the new year all of our office team were working extremely hard to completely rebuild our Induction program After much trial and error we have finalised and have launched it last week So far the feedback was really positive and we are hoping that these efforts will pay off in much better trained staff
At the moment we have prepared the Induction only for HCA staff but Nurse Induction might also be revised soon We are really excited for our new carers to join us and have the best experience to get ready for their shifts
Big THANKS to everyone, and mostly - our Team Leaders for huge help creating this
On this note, if you ever feel like you need extra training for ANYTHING (catheter/stoma care, client communication, infecton prevention, or One Touch)let us know and we can book you in for of the sessions to refresh your learning There is absolutely no shame in wanting to improve your skills and we will always support you
