I'm a social care nurse (official title) or care worker as its more commonly known. I assist adults with learning disabilities and challenging behaviour. I've been doing it for fourteen years now and wouldn't give it up for anything. I have a HND and Degree in theatre studies but I get more out of what I do now even though the pay is only just above minimum wage.
