Member story: Debbie Coombes, Care Worker
Today’s health systems are made of skilled, multi generational, and culturally diverse work forces, and you all share a common goal. That goal is to provide the best patient care experience in a positive work environment and the best way to accomplish that goal is with teamwork. This is the focus of our new campaign, #OnYourTeam
Debbie Coombes is a Care Worker at Uniting AgeWell Ningana Independent Living at Sorell in the state’s south and became a carer after working in foster care.
She says it’s a demanding role, but very fulfilling.
“There are different challenges every day, but you learn new aspects of care with the new residents coming in.”
However, despite having support available, she believes more help is needed.
“When we deal with people that are passing away, I’d like to see extra support, and then when they have passed away, I’d like to see councillors come and maybe give people (fellow workers) a call. That would be important to a lot of people.”
Updates correct as at 27 September 2021.
