A poem written by Angela Fuller from Everycare Eastbourne about carers having to wear masks has appeared on the UKHCA website.
We hope people enjoy reading it.
‘Behind The Mask’
Our faces have gone
They’re cut in half
No longer a smile
No longer a laugh
Our eyes are smiling
I hope you can see
But there’s a barrier now
Between you & me
I hope you can hear me
I’m speaking the same
But you can’t hear me clearly
When I’m calling your name
I am the same person
That comes to your door
I look very different
But you’ve seen me before
Please just bear with us
We have to protect
That’s part of our job now
But never forget
That under this face mask
I’m smiling the same
And I hope you can hear
When I’m speaking your name.
Jane Townson, chief executive of UKHCA, which represents home care companies, is calling for home care to be “centre stage” in the government’s battle to contain the coronavirus.
Both home care and live in care services can provide a huge contribution to keeping the vulnerable in society safe in their own homes avoiding hospital visits and reducing pressure on the NHS during the pandemic.
She argues that home care often prevents “unnecessary admission” to care homes and hospitals as it enables to people to stay living well and independently at home.
Consequently she says preventing these unnecessary admissions “should be a priority” and “supporting people at home, as far as possible, would be an intelligent and cost-effective strategy for the nation’s health and well-being”. However she says: “Instead, the opposite is happening. The majority of public and private funding, as well as media attention, is focused on hospitals and care homes, which between them support only 0.5 million people at a time.
