Seven Years in Domiciliary Care

What really happens behind the doors of domiciliary care?

After seven years working on the frontline, the author has learned that care rarely goes to plan. Care plans look neat on a screen, rotas are carefully timed, and calls are often described as “easy” but reality is far messier, louder, and funnier than the paperwork suggests.

From missing information and unexpected situations to smells that change you as a person and cups of tea that are never quite finished, Care Plans, Chaos & Cold Tea offers an honest, humorous look at life as a care worker. Told in a conversational, down-to-earth voice, this memoir captures the moments no training manual prepares you for.

Written for carers who will recognise themselves in every chapter, and for anyone curious about what care work is really like once the door closes this book is a tribute to the resilience, humour, and humanity of those who keep turning up.

Funny, truthful, and deeply human, Care Plans, Chaos & Cold Tea is a celebration of the real work that happens between the ticks on the app and the end of a long shift.
