What do you think it means? What do you care about?
Why? Is there anything you care for? Who or what?
If you care about someone or something, you feel
concern and affection and that they are or it is
important. If you care for someone, you look after them
and provide them with the things they need.
Here is a room
used for residents
in a care home to
sit. They might
chat to others in
the home, read,
draw or watch
television.
I work in a care home and help the residents
with their daily lives. Some of the things I do
include helping people wash and dress,
providing any medication and helping with
mealtimes. I also help with any social and
physical activities and I chat and listen and
provide friendship.

Care homes provide accommodation and care for
people who need help and support to live their
everyday lives.
Think about your life. Can you describe a typical day?
E.g. get up, get dressed, have breakfast, go to school,
play football, etc. Some people cannot do all of these
things and need some help. They may have a carer,
who visits them in their home to help, or they may
move to live in a care home.
