Page 1 of 3 What Can We Offer ...? Whether physical or emotional or mental health problem, to create the best 24-hr/365 care possible, all carers - professionals and family - working together to develop coordinated support is much more likely to be effective for a troubled individual. No matter how loving and well intentioned, especially when working without relevant and appropriate information and often lacking adequate resources, family and other informal home carers can struggle to provide support. In trying to build the most effective and coordinated care, sadly there are no magic wands. Professional and family carers can all play important though different support roles as part of a whole support structure. (Some professionals also become family carers when illness strikes their own family.) What can workingtogethercare.com offer professionals – e.g. Social Workers; Psychiatrists; Community Nurses; Mental Health Workers; Special Needs teachers? What can workingtogethercare.com offer family carers?
