The amazing relationships we form along the way, creating a trusted relationship at the start of case work creates a foundation for the work and I really enjoy the journey – the catch ups over the phone and the text conversations really lighten up my day. I also enjoy creating care packages and ordering things they need or that can help with their selfcare ?
