💙 Moments That Remind Us Why We Do What We Do 💙
At Radfield Home Care, we are privileged to support people during some of the most difficult moments of their lives. Today, we want to share a letter we received from one of our clients - words that truly touched our hearts and remind us of the impact compassionate care can have.
After the sudden loss of her husband of 47 years, our client found herself facing a future she never imagined. Accepting care was not an easy decision, but it became a turning point. Through kindness, companionship, and genuine understanding, one of our care professionals, Mrs Linda Flynn, helped restore purpose, connection, and moments of joy.
Here are the client’s words:
“I would just like to say a big thank you to my carer Mrs Linda Flynn. After losing my husband very suddenly on 31/12/2022 from a quite rare brain virus encephalitis, my world just fell apart. I just didn’t want to think about the future without him. My daughter suggested I would need carers and at first I declined this suggestion. We had been married for 47 years and he was such a good and caring husband and I knew it would be such a big void to fill. I am so glad I accepted the suggestion, Linda has made such a big difference to my life. Since losing my husband I have gone downhill both in my health and in my general outlook. There no longer seemed any purpose in getting up in the morning. Linda has however changed that. She has taken me out and we really enjoy each other’s company. This job takes a special kind of person. It is more than a job, it is bordering on nursing and that kind of feeling comes from a very special person. I just felt that Linda deserves a special thank you. Thank you to all your carers and the wonderful job they are doing. Thank you so much for reading my letter.”
These words perfectly capture what care is truly about, not just supporting physical needs, but offering empathy, companionship, and reassurance when it is needed most.
Linda, we are incredibly proud of you and the compassion you bring to your role every day. And to all our care professionals — thank you for the life-changing work you do. You make a difference in ways that truly matter.
