Social care is a huge and varied area of work, which can take place in a number of different settings and means working with many different types of people. Some work involves direct care for elderly people or those with physical disabilities, providing assistance in their own homes or in residential care homes with washing, dressing and a range of other domestic tasks.
Other roles could involve looking after children and young people in children's homes or nurseries, giving practical advice to families with low incomes or providing support for those with learning difficulties.
