Wooow thank you so much Lewis for sharing the valuable information. It was great listening to you and all the advice you gave. Well done interviewer, will be in touch
Hi Lewis, Thank you so much for the informative and insightful informatiom you shared 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wow, thank you so much, I had a horrendous experience with unqualified staff in a supported living.
Good staff is key!!! this can define your business, make or break.
My son has two group homes. It has created a horrible stress on his family. The tenants have to be vetted very carefully. Those sending clients often are not honest in their appraisals and just one troublemaker, who understands the system can threaten everyone involved. There are so many variables in the clients that the learning curve can be never ending. To top it off, staffing is another impossible job. This is not for the faint of heart.
Yes it is very challenging working in Mental Health
