Over 10 years he worked for several care companies and worked with people with physical, mental, emotional and situational difficulties. Sadly he saw that health and social care simply doesn't live up to the human standards that it should do. Staff are under-funded, over-worked, and under-resourced, so the care quality suffers. Peter believes that change can only come from within - the people who provide the front line care.
