A few years ago my 17yr old daughter who was working in the care sector at the time was asked by special request of a client to go give a makeover. This was no ordinary make over as it was to be the last one the client would ever receive. I asked my family member how on earth did she manage to do it; “well I would just like to think that someone would do it for my Granny.” came her reply
Whoever of us knew that three letters would come to mean so much; PPE (personal protective equipment).
Here are another three letters PSW (personal support worker).

PSW
It takes a special person
To do the job we do
Our job isn’t easy
We could use some help too.
Sometimes we get yelled at
Honestly that’s okay
We come home bruised and battered
But they don’t mean to act that way
Some say our job is crappy
For us that isn’t true
Someone has to do it
One day we may need them too.
Our heart and soul are with us
In every task we do
We only hope that someday
Someone will care for us that way too
Be proud of what you do
No matter big or small
Always hold your head high
That’s what makes you PSW strong
