I work in mental health and if my clients have to change their support worker then they clamp up because they feel they have to relive their life time experiences all over again and this makes them feel that they just want to give up and not bother with having the support. So we have to ensure that even if we go on holiday, another Support Worker does to not visit that client unless there…
