Andrew shares his mixed experiences of receiving care since a toe amputation following a workplace accident.

Home care support was arranged after they returned from hospital, which he appreciated because they were struggling but reluctant to ask for help at first.

He recalls one carer who was excellent, but they were sacked by the care company, he found this upsetting and difficult.

Andrew talks about the set up of his care, how he has some choice over the carers, that the conversations he has is what makes the difference and his frustrations when cares leave before the time they have allocated.
