My experience is mainly, but not exclusively, with elderly clients with dementia. Most recently I have been assisting a client, as a PA, supporting him with difficulties related to anxiety and phobias. I very much enjoy getting to know my clients, understanding who they are and what their individual needs are. Aside from the daily tasks of personal care, providing companionship can be very enjoyable and rewarding, a real pleasure at times. In my own time, I help my husband where i can on his small holding, growing fruit and vegetables and rearing pigs and sheep. Although, my skill set in that area is limited and so mostly i do the weeding! We have several dogs - two collies and a beagle, and so walks in the local area or through our fields and woodland is also one of my pleasures. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":false,"field_care_type_first":"","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"1","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":false,"field_care_type_fourth":"","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":false,"field_care_type_seven":""}

I like to learn new skills and put my knowledge to good use within my work. I have always had a caring nature and believe working with people is most rewarding. My years of experience has taught me that when I see a person in need they are unique and they deserve respect, compassion and the potential that can be accessed if they are given the opportunity they deserve and not be put under any prejudice. I recognise that every person has the right to a normal pattern of life. false

 TN37 6RA 243122 Helping others is not only a responsibility of life; it is what gives meaning to life. The deepest satisfaction comes from the joy of knowing you've positively impacted someone's world. And for nearly a decade this is what I've been doing. I have experience within, mostly, all facets of care, and will gladly help with all aspects of personal care, medication, administrative tasks, household cleaning and cooking. I am 51 years old. Pardon, I meant young (bubbly, like to chat, have a laugh, and I absolutely love spending time with my grandkids. I could also very easily get lost in a book or a well written essay and take pleasure in enjoying a well made cuppa. More, I take my job seriously and I know it inside-out. A pivotal turning point happened when my husband passed away, and made me more passionate. There simply is nothing I'd rather do than care for others. I'm qualified and trained to cater to a whole range of needs and so, for a personalised care plan please get in touch first and I'll reply as soon as I can. 1 1 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":false,"field_care_type_first":"","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":false,"field_care_type_second":"","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1"}

I have lived in England for over 20 years now, mostly around Tunbridge Wells and Crowborough area, but also lived 2 years in Hong Kong. I speak fluent English. As anyone, I am very vocal about the British weather and love the countryside. To the dismay of my two children, you would often see me quickly stopping in a layby, snapping a photo of sunset or a valley surrounded by fog. I would describe myself friendly, with common sense individual, hard working and efficient, a quick and accomplished cook, lending my hands to anything, especially if it is organising in any form. I can be quite chatty and interested in people's history, but I also recognise silent presence is sometimes valued most, and stay within professional boundaries. During my 7 year care employment for an organisation and private individuals, I have gained valued experience and insight how to care for clients of different needs and alongside with other health care professionals. Welfare of individuals and helping them to have a good day, is what fulfils me. 1 1 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"1, 4","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"1, 4","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1, 4","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1, 4","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1, 4","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1, 4","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1, 4"}

When I moved to UK I missed working in care sector and my friend recommended to try community care which I loved then I had an opportunity to work as a support worker with adults with physical and learning disabilities which I deeply enjoyed but as I like to move around I realized I needed to do something different so just before lockdown I became a live in carer and ended up having a few private live in clients.

 BN22 8AB 66650 I shall be available in the East Sussex area as I am moving back to Eastbourne in early May. I am a Companion/Carer/Housekeeper and enjoy working with my clients and see myself as their 'enabler'. I feel rewarded when I have enabled my client to live a full and happy life. My background involved caring for many family members who lived with chronic health issues. My career was mainly in administration (in the NHS and Social Services) and I also gained a degree in my late 30s. I am also a qualified TESOL (Teacher of English to Speakers of Other Languages). I decided on a change of career six years ago as I considered I had the life skills and experience to offer support to elderly clients and their families. Some of my clients were all living with Alzheimer's. This environment can be demanding and challenging, but with empathy, resourcefulness and common sense I have succeeded in creating a calm environment for them to flourish within. Through an Alzheimer's Awareness course and extensive reading I continue to increase my knowledge regarding this condition. Above all, I would say I am continuingly learning from my clients. Everything I do is completely 'client centred' with the aim of maintaining dignity, agency and independence. I demonstrate initiative, am organised and reliable and like to think I have a warm and friendly nature. I work well within an integrated 'team', which usually consists of family members and health professionals. I am a competent cook and can adapt to any specific dietary requirements. In my spare time I enjoy writing (mainly short stories and poetry) and I have a great love of history, architecture and natural history (I am a member of the National Trust). I have good listening, communication and observational skills and I am well travelled. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"1","field_care_type_first":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"1","field_care_type_second":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"1","field_care_type_third":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"1","field_care_type_fourth":"1, 4, 3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"1","field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"0","field_care_type_sixth":null,"field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"0","field_care_type_seven":null}
