Hopefully by now, you would have met your new foster carer and made to feel very welcome.
On arrival, you will receive a Welcome Pack. This was designed by other young people who we have cared for. Please have a good read and if we can help any further at this stage, please let us know.
We hope you have had the chance to speak with your social worker about coming to Ryancare. Did you know that your carer also has a social worker from Ryancare. If you have not met them yet, they will be visiting soon. Their job is to make sure you are being looked after well, so please speak with them if you have any concerns.
Whilst with Ryancare, you can expect to be listened to and have your feelings respected. We will always “fight your corner” to provide you with the things you need and deserve.
Your carer will provide you with a balanced diet so you stay healthy. They will give you the opportunity to do all the things that young people like yourself want to do.
If you do not feel you are getting this then we would like to know straight away. Please use the numbers in the Welcome Pack should you need to contact us.
Neil McCarthy manages Ryancare and he is an experienced social worker. If you have any concerns, please ask to speak with him and he will assist you wherever possible.
