Hi Marco 11 and welcome to this caring forum. Training to become a carer can be accessed on line, by distance learning and by making enquires at your local further education college. Caring for your father will have given you some valuable experience. Formal training will be provided and then you will be able to turn your qualifications and experience into a full-time career. You may wish to have a look online to see the courses your local college offers and / or book an appointment with the staff at student support services to discuss the most suitable course. All the very best with this. Let us know how you get on. Thank you and best wishes.
