Because people who care for others deserve support too.
The Wisdom Worry Monster represents all the things people working in care worry about every day.
Making sure residents are safe and well. Supporting people through difficult days. Covering extra shifts. Managing challenging situations. Caring for families as well as residents. Keeping up with training. Dealing with staffing pressures. Worrying about making mistakes. Trying to leave work at work — but still thinking about the people you care for when you get home.
One worry on its own might not seem much. But they soon pile up.
Working in care can be incredibly rewarding, but it can also be emotionally and physically demanding. When people spend their days looking after others, it’s easy to put their own wellbeing last.
