I would describe myself as someone who is creative and patient person looking after my sister who has special needs I change, feed and also playing with her. I see by being a carer would help out as the perfect next step in my career. In the position working with children I expect to be able to develop myself further as a professional. As I'm studying health and social care this will give me a better idea of what skills I can develop when working with others. I have done 100hrs of work experience working in a children’s Centre and a nursery. My main responsibilities were making sure they were not in an environment that could put them in danger I would feed them change their nappies, bathe, and play with them like reading books. Also helping with homework

Hi! I started doing social-friendly visits, as a volunteer, and guess what? I loved and decided to take a course for carer, and my first job was 2019, with a lovely 85 years old lady, with some health conditions. I would do all the house errands, shopping, light healthy cooking, drive her to her appointments, take her lovely westie dog for walks, we also spent time watching movies, documentaries, also lots of time sunbathing in her garden. After my first lovely client and her westie dog, I've been working with many different other lovely people. I love arts, museums and culture and general, nearly all kind of music, from classical concerts to house music and blues or jazz, especially when I'm cooking. I like to talk about economics, or financial world. I'm a manual and automatic driver( that I prefer). I'm interested in different conversations subjects, and can easily tell when to avoid a delicate subject, to avoid uncomfortable or inconvenient situations. I love to watch a comedy, as I like cartoon or documentaries. I consider myself a very calm, flexible, trustworthy person. I Believe in being Grateful every day, for the sunny or cloudy day! * I’m not working with clients with dementia. If you have any questions, please fell free to ask me. All the best of luck in finding your carer!

My experience of over 5 years has shown that looking after the most vulnerable people is a pivotal role in health and social care that helps to maximize clients quality of life in the face of illness and disability. Which is why, my priority in caring for clients is to put their needs first, win their trust and make them happy and safe in the comfort of their own home. This recognition will help to develop and boost their strength and abilities for an independent and fulfilling life. Passion. As a great carer, my awareness of clients facing mental health issues makes me passionate about their health and safety and empathetic to tailor services that will make a real difference in their life, to support what matters to them. Therefore, my passion to care for those in need helps me treat people with dignity, compassion, respect, and to provide coordinated care. Dedication. My emotional resilience and natural inclination helps me listen to clients' concern, to under-study and understand how the client wants to be cared for. This dedication to people gives me courage to communicate my duty of care to clients and ensure their wellbeing aligns with the NHS standard policies and procedures. Experience. This have taught me and brought out the ability in me to maintain composure and calmness in difficult situations. My experience in caring for people helps me relate to clients more effectively and to focus on the positive, making me go the extra mile towards making the individual happy, or their life easier in some way. Attentiveness. Most clients live in an unfortunate isolation situation, with numerous negative consequences. This implies that humans are meant to interact socially by nature, therefore my presence: physical assistance, engagement and listening to clients will make a huge difference to their recovery. And this explains why attentiveness for me means being insightful, observant and committed to my task; willing to listen to people and be observant enough to look out for signs of early deterioration in clients. This can include anything from low mood, decreased appetite, weight loss or gain to increased confusion or irritability, depression, anxiety or other illnesses. My being attentive and observant means me taking a quicker action for a better outcome that could help make my client's life better. Dependability. This means I'm reliable and always willing to be flexible with my schedule to suit the needs of my clients, thereby helping them make a positive difference by providing support and companionship. I'm dependable because as a health care and personal assistant, who is First-Aid trained means that I can be calm to concentrate during an emergency, and this means peace of mind for my clients knowing they will be well looked after if an accident occurs. Communication. Individuals from varied backgrounds with diverse health issues may be impaired by their inability to communicate. This puts me in a position to interact clearly with clients who may have individual needs for me to assist with effective working practices. Good communication helps me engage and listen to clients, respecting their wishes and preferences while responding to what they want. It helps me ensure clients receive a standardised level of care! Organization and planning. Depending on the work environment, clients have a range of activities to coordinate in a typical day. Which is why my ability to organise and plan helps me support clients, making sure they are safe, warm and comfortable in their own home environment, and also to plan their food, shopping, cooking, paying of bills, emails, posting of letters and ensuring clients attend to their medical appointments. Calmness under pressure. This is incredibly important, because working under pressure when dealing with patients who are frustrated, difficult, or with diminished capabilities can be frustrating. Juggling these time constraints with the desire to provide the best care possible to clients is a constant balancing act that comes with experience. In addition, the constantly changing health needs of clients means I must be alert to the changing needs of my clients, which can easily lead to pressure, yet this demands my experience, understanding and having the ability to remain calm and patient, so the client can get better and improve. Friendliness. This key quality to caring for people is especially needful in a situation where clients are withdrawn or exhibit behavioural issues, having a friendly presence is vital to ensure they feel happy and safe. As a bright and positive person, being open and warm helps me build rapport with clients; it helps me elicit cooperation by putting myself in the shoes of other people to empathize and be by their side to help provide solidarity and companionship, stability and security, thereby winning their trust and acceptance. Patience. My calm presence is essential for a client to be at ease, especially in conditions such as dementia. Also, my working with clients suffering from physical and psychological health issues demands that I be patient to work at their own pace, this can improve my delivery of care. In summary, if you hire my services, you'll benefit from my commitment to care for you and ensure your safety and confidentiality. Some of my hobbies and interests are travelling, writing, reading, cooking, table-tennis, meditation, and exercise.
