My role as a designated care manager is to help the residents to keep as much independence as possible. and to be as socially and physically active as they can. the main part of my role is to plan and supervise social activities. Social care is very important, and it is essential to caring and trusting relationships with my residents that i work with.

Patience, compassion, tact and a sense of humor are vital qualities, especially if i work with my residents who do not like to admit that they need my help. I will need strong communication and interpersonal skills to develop caring, trusting relationships with my residents I must be able to respect each individual's right to keep as much independence and privacy as
