Theme 6: It is a difficult time for many family carers. Family carers were less happy and more anxious than most other people in Great Britain. Family carers’ health has generally been getting worse since the research started in December 2020.

Feedback like this helps me to remember why full retirement wasn’t an option and going back to teaching LD nursing students is at the heart of what I love.
Replying to @nickygen
Nicky your an inspiration 😍 With this being the second module you have taught me on through the degree, I would not know as much as I do without your teaching, knowledge and experience that you share with all of your students 😊
