Hi Christine.
Thanks for writing.
Mum doesn't have a qualification for PCA.
Mum entered back in workforce about 5 years ago after battling Crohns for 10 years. She worked with a lady with dementia taking her to appointments and helping her around place. Helping her live in her house.
About 6 months ago her family decided to put her in a home so mum was out of work. The home she was put in gave her a casual PCA job as she was doing that already.
Mum said the older people pull on her when getting out of bed and in shower and she doesn't think she can do it while healing. Her boss also said this and that she didn't have any small duties for her that wouldn't require this.
So not sure what is next.
Thanks
Danielle
