 SR1 3DP 202541 Hello!! My name is Chiamaka but prefer to be called Lexer, I possess a lovely personality with good communication skills, with a tender care nature, diligent in duty, and highly competent. I have five years experience practicing pharmacy back in Nigeria, moving over to the UK, with the basic experience of working in the healthcare setting and 5 years unpaid personal experience of caring for my late grandmother who was blind and frail before her death. I possess the composite ability to fit in and excel as a healthcare assistant or support worker. Recently I have taken some physical training and online training in healthcare assistant roles, elderly care currently rounding up an online diploma course in caregiving, waiting for the certificates. My hobbies and interests include; solving puzzles, dementia care, cooking. I am looking for clients that are more mobile and do not require hoisting. For day shifts I would prefer longer hours as I do not drive ideally 3/4 hours or 1 client in the morning and 1 client in the afternoon. I love that being a healthcare assistant gives you the opportunity to provide value using beautiful human virtues like empathy, care, compassion etc. It is a job that provides care for people at possibly there weak points making you really sensitive to an aspect of life not always projected.

I’ll update my profile once it is clear if they are able to make a recovery. Thankyou for your understanding. Introduction: Hello. I’m Joe. I am based between London and the north east of England. I also have family in several parts of the country so am able to work in nearly all locations in England and Scotland. I have several years experience as a professional carer and additionally, I looked after both my parents for many years. I specialise in helping those with Dementia. I work on a Live in basis, either full time on my own OR job sharing, working several weeks on/several off, alongside another carer. I can also work waking or sleeping nights. If you would like to discuss your needs, please message me. There is no commitment on your part. About me : I am well liked and a caring person, working at a pace you are comfortable with. I’ll always be sensitive to your needs, appreciating there will be times when you need hands on support and others where your privacy needs to be respected, my being in the background in case I am needed. In terms of duties, I am adept at the full range and carer performs : admin, washing/dressing, medications, cooking and cleaning, companionship and shopping. I enjoy sport, tv, music, conversation and gardening, so if that is important to you, you can be sure that, together, we will have your garden looking perfect. I also enjoy all forms of art. I try to make each day interesting for my client. For example, looking at the news/current affairs/favourite tv programmes and talking about what is happening in the world and locality. Using board games, puzzles and pictures, reading, music and photo albums to stimulate laughter and happy memories. Clients often like to reminisce about the places they have lived and there are lots of clips on you tube, showing towns as they were and are now, which can be of interest. And for those able to get out and about, I enjoy accompanying clients on journeys, be this shopping, cafes, community or gardening centres, or arts and craft events, etc. Additionally, I’m aware of the importance of light exercise, to retain flexibility and muscular strength in old age, be this short supported walks. a tour of the garden, or even chair based movements. I am also very much aware of the need to keep loved ones informed at all times, of any development that may require their attention. And I take the responsibility very seriously of liaising with health professionals and documenting advice/decisions taken, particularly in regard to medications.. To this end, I usually keep a record sheet for each client, recording any important information/developments on a daily basis. Additionally, if a client were to experience a change in their condition (as often occurred with my own father), I am competent at reporting those to district nurses, gp and other health professionals, and in the necessary follow up. I am not trained in physiotherapy but have used chair and bed based stretching exercises to aid client wellbeing/recovery. Overall, I am a calm head on old shoulders and am used to responsibility and decision making, having held senior management positions in my professional working life. But it is in retirement that I have found my true vocation, caring for others and I really enjoy being able to help people in their elder years. Joe.

 SR5 3LR 135948 I have over 7 years experience working in care homes. This is because I enjoy assisting elderly, young and vulnerable people in areas they are not capable of because of my kindness and selfless nature. I enjoy listening to them and making them happy. I have had the opportunity to work with clients with celebral palsy, dementia and learning disabilities. My passion for care started in 2004- 2008, when I had to take care of my mum who was diagnosed of diabetes. This to an extent made me realise how passionate, caring, understanding and patient I could be with people. Since then I have found myself loving the health care sector.
