“Before making this change, I was doing long journeys between clients at my own expense and juggling family routines. Now, I can do the school run without stress and spend more time at home, fitting time with clients around my life, which is incredibly valuable.” On World Mental Health Day earlier this month Curam Champion, Ashley-Louise Lumley, was featured on homecare.co.uk talking all about how Care Professionals can look after their mental health while working in the care industry. Throughout her 12 years of care experience Ashley-Louise has picked up lots of helpful tips and tricks to help support her mental health, one is being able to choose her own hours and clients.

“Local authorities grappling with holiday absence typically must rely on agency cover, which is notoriously expensive and slow to organise, causing disruption to clients and draining already stretched budgets. Traditional routes are inefficient for sourcing holiday cover – it’s time for councils to innovate.” This week our Co-Founder and Director, Benjamin Weatherall, was featured in Open Access Government discussing how Local Authorities are navigating care cover during busy holiday periods and commenting on how Curam can help by offering affordable solutions and reducing overheads and admin fees. Unlike traditional agencies Curam is available 24/7, giving Local Authorities access to Care Professionals whenever and wherever they need care cover.

“Besides working flexibly, I found that working through an online care marketplace helps my mental health by giving me greater control over my clients. This is because I can choose the clients I work with and work more closely with them. I find this preserves my mental capacity, enabling me to provide a better quality of care and foster better relationships with my clients”. Curam Champion, Ashley-Louise Lumley, is featured in Care Home Magazine commenting on how to manage stress and work/life balance as a Care Professional. Following World Mental Health Day on the 10th we wanted to help shine a light on Care Professionals mental health and share some tips that Ashley-Louise, who has 12 years' experience being a Care Professional, has learnt during her career.

Our wonderful, experienced Care Professionals are on hand to help with hospital discharge. We know that it can be stressful and frustrating when you or a loved one is ready to leave hospital but there is no one in place to look after those who need care once they’ve been discharged. Curam can help speed up hospital discharge, our platform is available 24/7, so whenever you need care, you have access to 10,000 Care Professionals, with a sector leading average of 10 years’ experience. Our Care Professionals often help organise speedy hospital discharges, here is just one review Curam has received recently. “Great service, the Curam team helped me get my dad out of hospital on Saturday night, if it wasn't for them dad would be still in hospital many thanks...” There are so many reasons a speedy hospital discharge is important. Patients waiting for discharge in hospitals are far more likely to pick up further illnesses or viruses and recuperating at home allows patients to recover in a safe, familiar environment, comfortably.

The first day at any job can be a little daunting, and at Curam we know that Care Professionals are not immune to feeling nervous when they first meet and start working with a new client as a live-in Care Professional. Last week we hosted an interactive webinar for our approved Care Professionals, giving them all the top tips on how to prepare for their first day with a new client and what to expect. Hosted by the wonderful Annika Iantosca, and joined by Lucinda Norreys, a seasoned Care Professional with over 14 years of experience. Lucinda talked through all the best practices that she has picked up during her many live-in care roles. We love hearing from our Care Professionals and made sure that we left enough time for an interactive Q & A session as well. This is just one of the ways we connect with our Care Professional community, and we are excited to continue supporting them through helpful, informative and interactive webinars. #transformingcare #experiencedcareprofessionals #nhssupport #carenews #supportworker #caringwithcuram #selfemployedcarerprofessinoals #carecommunity #stayconnected #curaminthenews #socialcarenews #webinar #carersupport
