What do you do?
"I work in our community response team visiting patients in their homes. Every day is different, it could involve visiting a patients family if they're worried, sorting out medications, or helping manage someone's pain."

Sponsor Sultan and the team

Meet Sultan
Seeking a strong sense of community and a place where he could make a real difference, Sultan found his niche in hospice care, valuing both the supportive team and the opportunity to bring comfort to patients and their families during challenging times.
What do you find most rewarding?
"Definitely working with the team. I've worked in nursing for about 10 years and have never had a team spirit and colleagues like this before – we really look after each. Regarding patient care, the satisfaction you get after seeing someone pain-free when they were suffering a lot, or seeing the relief in their family, is immense. I've had comments from spouses who suddenly realise they don't have to be a 24-hour carer anymore, when we step in to support them. That kind of feedback gives me great satisfaction."
Tell us about a memorable moment?
"I remember a wife in her eighties, who had struggled caring for her husband at home after difficult hospital stays. She was amazed when we offered her a drink in the evening while her husband was being cared for, saying she couldn't believe she could finally rest and be supported too. It was a shock for her. She said she could never believe she could get that kind of rest and support while her husband was still being cared for. That still sticks with me.”
