Being undermined by manager (hardly knows me) in front of clients

I started off with a few hours in this care home some 6 months ago. I was told the clients never made any bad comments about me and so all ok. Indeed I have received some presents from them.More recently I asked to try a longer shift which I have done 3 times. I noticed that on the 3rd I was on a shift with a Manager and being watched by another Manager. They both tore me apart right in front of clients one of whom then behaved badly towards me. Another client apparently tried to stick up for me but failed I think. The Manager questioned what I was doing on my previous shift yet that had been scrutinised and I know I do above the required work . I am still doing the original shift but it looks like the new shift has stopped.
I have never received any training for my work though I received some in the past and had a gap in my employment history which they knew about. It all seems a shame as I adore my clients. I can just stay as I am. I can only work part-time by the way. I do vol work so I think I can get a reference from them to find some other work shortly (but I assume I would need to tell my current employer) Oh and one of my colleagues on the new shift has been criticising one thing about my work to this new Manager behind my back as well. I love my clients and I think if I just go back to working on my own and keep
away from these colleagues/managers I may recover my morale

Is this in the UK, what do you mean you have never received any training, none at all? How can you work on your own in a carehome, don't you all have to work together and are clients really getting involved in office politics and squabbles.
