Caregiving is an occupation that makes a huge difference in local community. As a Homecare provider you know the value. Still, as you know that very well – the crisis in care sector has catapulted in the last two years. While you may have been personally facing the brunt of this crisis, your peers are in the same boat.
According to the UK Government’s own figures, over 40,000 social care staff has left their jobs in the last six months. Even in the quarters of Westminster, the waves of upcoming care tsunami could be felt. While they might blame it only on the ‘unprecedented challenges prompted by the pandemic’, they did all of us a humongous favour brought forth changes in the UK immigration laws.
Here's the good news that the UK government bestowed on the homecare providers like you
“…from 15 February 2022, the job title ‘care assistant’ (job code HC1019) will be added to the shortage occupation list…”
In very simple terms, this is the UK government telling you that there are no carers in the UK – you can’t hire them through job fairs or job portals. Those who are there are also fast leaving. The UK government is giving homecare providers a solution, a way out. You should definitely take advantage and take the first step by getting a sponsor license.
