		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t get it. Why do substitute workers seem to think that they have been here before, when the fact is, they haven&#8217;t been?  I mean is it that all patients they tend to, look alike? Or What?
Today&#8217;s substitute worker, Nancy, insists she has been here before, but in the afternoon. Which would mean that ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It happens, a home support worker is off, for whatever reason, and a substitute worker is sent in her place. Nothing unusual about that, and common in the industry, and other professions as well.
I can remember having many substitute teachers when I went to school, and sure, we managed to pull a few fast one&#8217;s ...]]></description>

I think this is one of them, in a growing long line of them, which makes me question, if I can survive this? I wonder too, how it impacts David, and yet I can&#8217;t dwell on that, or on how I feel ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[IF you are sending QUALIFIED STAFF into people&#8217;s homes, as replacements, or as fill in&#8217;s, don&#8217;t you think they should be able to KNOW BEFOREHAND what their responsibilities are?
Surely there is a Patient Profile available, that they can check, to see what condition their PATIENTS ARE IN, BEFORE ARRIVING. I mean it would make sense, ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Granted, scheduling multiple workers, for numerous patients, some only on a temporary basis, is not simple or easy.
