Event description
This session has been developed in order to explain what the role of the buddy is in more detail.  The session will look at what you enjoy about the role as well as worries and concerns that you may have. We will identify how you can support your new carer with their TSDS and hopefully alleviate any concerns that you have in this area.  We will also have a look at the new recording sheet.  In addition we will look at a few scenarios and " What would you do in this situation?".

It would be great to have a few anonymised examples of your weekly recordings, to share on the day, so if any of you are brave enough to perhaps send in an anonymised example of a recording sheet,  that would be amazing.
