Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Therein lies the question; we hear a lot about NHS staff, and rightly so, but as usual, the Care Sector is totally ignored - both in the grateful platitudes of Govt officials, and in the financial measures announced by the Chancellor yesterday.

I'm currently juggling with the needs of 450 vulnerable people, about 30% of whom have underlying health conditions that place them at further risk, and a workforce of 2000 who have been told to self-isolate at the first sign of a cough or raised temperature in either themselves or their immediate family. My clients need round the clock support, usually 1:1, in every aspect of their lives, including personal care - so I am teetering on the brink of some very dangerous situations which could develop quickly. I am certainly earning my corn right now - but the sector desperately needs help.

Making a video message for staff this morning, advising a board level decision to pay full salary during self-isolation; we hoped that Rishi Sunak would announce some assistance yesterday, but since it wasn't even mentioned, we're just doing it - and we'll count the cost later. Interesting conversations upcoming with our bank - the main thrust of which will be "you can shove your covenants up your ar5e."


The commercial world is ever evolving - I don't envy your situation - the banks would be in pretty hot water if they took this an opportunity to clear the decks!!

That would be the last thing on their minds - they fight to keep us away from PE on a regular basis, so I'm not too worried about that eventuality.

They will just have to swallow some revised forecasts based on these extraordinary circumstances - we need to retain our workforce, so we'll be paying them their full wage whilst self-isolating; eye-watering costs now, but far less damaging in the long run than losing them altogether - or having sick people come to work to avoid hardship, and infecting vulnerable people as a result.
