duty of care

I'm on shift with another support worker for 2 hours while she is there for 6 hours. During that time, she's consistently on her laptop doing personal uni coursework, then switches to her phone with an AirPod in and then later watching videos or taking personal calls. When I arrive at 6pm, her laptop is already open and she's mid-typing, which suggests she's been on it since earlier in her shift, but I can only confirm what I see from 6–8pm myself.

I've also noticed her give medication to the client directly when the client is capable of taking it herself, and I've seen her k*ss the client on the forehead many times before leaving the shift.

While shes on the computer doing all of that, i am the one who is actually engaged with the client. We mainly watch tv with the client as thats what her main activity is, and this support worker does do her other duties correctly such as making dinner for the client. However this behaviour is making me upset especially when i come to the shift and see this.

I've also noticed her give medication to the client directly when the client is capable of taking it herself which is by literally putting the medication in the clients mouth, and I've seen her kiss the client on the forehead many times before leaving the shift.
