1
00:00:01,173 --> 00:00:03,033
Callum was unsure about school.
2
00:00:03,187 --> 00:00:07,147
He didn't really know what route
he wanted to take, so they were happy
3
00:00:07,347 --> 00:00:10,000
for him to come here to do
some work experience.
4
00:00:10,107 --> 00:00:11,297
Through this apprenticeship
5
00:00:11,437 --> 00:00:14,597
with the one to one support,
there's somebody there guiding him.
6
00:00:14,857 --> 00:00:18,030
Some people forget it's not just a job
where you go and make cups of tea.
7
00:00:18,103 --> 00:00:21,383
It is dealing with very scary situations
sometimes.
8
00:00:21,743 --> 00:00:25,097
You could see him
get more confident as the months went on.
9
00:00:25,517 --> 00:00:27,063
The residents love Callum.
10
00:00:27,117 --> 00:00:30,543
They are shouting his name,
and they are just all smiling.
11
00:00:30,690 --> 00:00:32,743
He's really good at his job.
12
00:00:32,923 --> 00:00:36,230
So this is a letter from
one of the residents that I looked after.
13
00:00:36,617 --> 00:00:39,483
I really felt close
to several of your excellent carers,
14
00:00:39,603 --> 00:00:43,803
but what came as a surprise to me
was how mature and caring Callum was.
15
00:00:44,197 --> 00:00:47,037
I don't know how old he is,
but he seemed to young
16
00:00:47,083 --> 00:00:49,830
to be so confident,
patient and perceptive.
17
00:00:50,430 --> 00:00:55,083
His self-confidence reassured me,
and I always felt safe when he was helping me.
18
00:00:56,557 --> 00:00:57,923
To take good care of someone
19
00:00:57,970 --> 00:01:00,600
you need to have empathy and compassion,
20
00:01:00,677 --> 00:01:03,410
to listen and to give them a voice to be heard
21
00:01:03,503 --> 00:01:05,323
and give them the best life possible.
22
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:14,440
Start your career in care with an apprenticeship
