 DT73TS 65544 Due to a change in circumstances, I now have some availability for work from mid October. I work on a relief basis so do please message me to enquire? My rates for Bank Holidays are time and half. Other days usual rate. I may also have capacity for work over Xmas and Nee Year. . Please do look at my client references for validation of my work ethic. OFFERING RESPITE WORK rather than long term placement for foreseeable. I have 35 yrs plus experience in caring for people with different needs, in a variety of settings. I am looking for respite care opportunities covering carers breaks or extra care support needed as a transition from hospital back home. I also enjoy supporting people who need some support to live an independent, full and rich life. Also available for palliative care support. I have had previous experience in this area and appreciate the need for patience, calmness, kindness and flexibility. My primary aim has been to support people to remain living as comfortably and independently as possible at home, to enjoy life despite of challenges and ensuring the family members are also listened to and feel equally supported in collaboratively caring for their loved ones. I worked for a company that works with service users with Parkinson's for 5 yrs and I trained carers in understanding the particular needs of those living with this condition . I have supported people with dementia, anxiety and mental health issues, strokes, learning and physical disabilities, end of life and much more. For the past 7yrs I have been a self-employed carer working in the community. All my work has arrived through personal recommendations. Recently a client said of me " you are irreplaceable, there is only one Helen!" My care is of the highest standard and tailored to your needs. I am happy to arrange a meeting with you to discuss this in person before agreeing any shifts should that be of help? Thank you for taking the time to view my profile. Any questions you have please feel free to contact me and we can explore options together. {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"0","field_care_type_first":null,"field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"0","field_care_type_second":null,"field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"0","field_care_type_third":null,"field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"0","field_care_type_fourth":null,"field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"0","field_care_type_fifth":null,"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}

 SP7 0JX 36277 Hello my name is Dino. I have been a carer for over 17 years. I was working in Rotterdam, Netherlands for 10 years as a Rehab Assistant. After that I started working as a live in carer all around Europe including England. I became a carer because I like to help and support people around me. I try to give people independence and encourage them to live life to the fullest. I'm a family man, so I know how to provide good care for people and how to manage household duties. I have good communication skills, patience and compassion to deliver excellent care. My passion is cooking, I was selected for 3 years as the best amateur chef in the Mediterranean. I look forward to having the opportunity to be able to provide you care 0 1 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"3"}

 BA11 4LT 280578 Hello, my name is Nikki. With over 10 years of experience, I have been dedicated to providing care and support to my clients in the comfort of their homes. My approach is all about patience, understanding, and kindness, and I always strive to offer compassionate and attentive care. I am known for my warm and friendly nature, and I'm a great listener. Whether working independently or as part of a team, I have a care certificate, up-to-date carer training, an enhanced DBS check, insurance, and current Covid vaccinations. My expertise lies in assisting individuals with Dementia, Alzheimer’s, stroke, and rehabilitation. Originally from Zimbabwe/South Africa, I have now made the UK my home.

My ultimate goal is to enrich the lives of those in my care, providing not only assistance but also companionship while promoting independence and dignity. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"1","field_care_type_first":"3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"1","field_care_type_second":"3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"1","field_care_type_third":"3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"1","field_care_type_fourth":"3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"1","field_care_type_fifth":"3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"1","field_care_type_sixth":"3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"1","field_care_type_seven":"3"}

 BA11 1NJ 24354 Respite live in care on an ad-hoc basis I am a calm, organised person that enjoys life. I enjoy company but equally enjoy my own space. I do a lot of walking and enjoy cycling in the summer months. I am passionate about travel and have been lucky enough to have travelled fairly extensively. I enjoy crafting projects when at home. I was born and bred in Somerset and currently live in Frome. I have spent 2 years working as a live in carer and the past 2 years working as a carer for a tour company which specialises in holidays for people with disabilities. I found it very rewarding and nice to connect with other people. I have completed the Care Certificate. I have experience working with Cerebral Palsy, Depression and Anxiety. For many years I lived with a family member with Multiple Sclerosis. I have never worked with Peg but am willing to learn. Currently I am happy to travel to a client within two hours of my home. When the U.K situation changes I will be willing to travel further distances if client is happy to contribute to fuel costs. I drive a large van, so able to get to clients easily, but because of a large step to get in, it is not advisable to take clients out in it. I am more than happy to drive clients car and have a full, clean driving licence. I have an animal allergy, so unable to go to homes with any pet animals. Bank holidays are normally charged at time and a half. Christmas day, boxing day and Christmas bank holidays are charged at double time. {"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":false,"field_care_type_third":"","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":false,"field_care_type_fourth":"","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":false,"field_care_type_fifth":"","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":false,"field_care_type_sixth":"","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":false,"field_care_type_seven":""}
