When "Care Home" concept took off every Doctor seemed to open one , as did a lot of Nurses, first Jah Jirah home was such a money dream venture. Cheap unskilled labour on tap, virtually regulation free at first. They fleeced their staff and residents alike as money not care, the motive. Not fair to name individuals but zeal for money making concept gripped a certain sister I knew. Cheap old buildings, 2 or 3 to a bedroom at first, until years later some standards imposed by regulator. Pioneers told they could be paid for being present all night but with no work to do, so able to pioneering day. However, laundry, cleaning, resident assistance made such exhausting work. See Mr Example Family man, Ray Pople a trustee asis Anthony Kendall ex co. Sums them up perfectly, light, action, spotlight please.

Is that Ray Pople from Kent or another guy?

"and there a lot of misfits working " I too have worked in aged -care and this applies here as well.

People who have for years never done any in-service courses or external either. "Cant afford that" but at the next morning tea they are on about their next trip to Bali.

Anthony Kendall.....There's a name from the past! .... A very distinguished well spoken man and a cut above the born-ins they have today..

Anyway, Jah Jirrah, I have known a couple who went to work at one, they had no qualifications that I Kew of. I also know one or two who have been in there for care . I have heard no complaints, but then again, you wouldn't,would you ?

Isnt this discriminatory ? only having JW`s and no other faiths ?that other faiths

are exluded ? is that legal ?

And dont they state that those who are accepted have to be JW`s in good standing in their respective congregations ? and if not they would be excluded ? Discrimination against their own believers ? Who decides ? and on what grounds ?

{ It wouldnt have to do with how much money they had to pay for the privelidge would it ?}

Is that also legal ?

It's not illegal to provide a charitable service to a specific group of people.

What is questionable is the question on the employment application form about being a JW. It's illegal to discriminate on the basis of religion and strictly speaking, it's not even permissible to ask someone about their religion in an interview.

I don't know if there is some loophole or dispensation that they have found in the employment laws but AFAIK they aren't allowed to do what they are doing.

Citizens Advice: Religious organisations and charities - when discrimination is allowed in the provision of goods or services

The law which says you mustn't be discriminated against is called the Equality Act 2010. Discrimination which is against the Act is unlawful. But there are some situations where discrimination is allowed. Sometimes religious organisations and charities are allowed to discriminate against you when they provide services.

I think that would be the issue - but interestingly what about actually advertising job vacancies? - you could almost 'pre-select' people by the newspaper/outlet you decided to advertise in? An advert in a Catholic newspaper or a gay magazine is going to generally attract a certain applicant in the first place...
