I have been a carer for over 20years, I ran a little private care company in Essex before moving to Cornwall over 7 years ago, my care experience covers a wide range of skills, prompting meds, personal care, palliative care in different settings.. care home and dom care.. I am reliable, respectful, friendly, I work well on my own and as part of a team and I like to believe I treat everyone with dignity and respect.. I have completed my care certificate again and am currently waiting to start my Level 5 in Health and social care. I also cared for my elderly parents before they passed away

I worked for nearly 3 years until recently in home caree support for people with a variety of vulnerabiities, providing anything from personal care to enabling, having previously run a Social and Therapeutic Horticulture project for adults, mostly with a learning disability. I now work only part-time, if that, through Curam. I am patient, personable, kind and compassionate, well-educated with an interest in other people.

My story I have looked after my dear dad solo in 2022, I gave him everything he could possibly want or need as wished by him as he rightly deserved (he looked after me so it’s only right I am able to do the same) I gave him his medications, cooked for him, picked up prescriptions, guided him with his walker, to the toilet safely, then the commode in his room, when bed bound I gave him a shave to feel fresh, washed his body to feel fresh, dressed and undressed him, changed his adult Bed pads, stayed right next to him, read him story’s he read to me, like old fables, simple stories he read me. I stayed with dad overnight for 2 months in his room and watched him closely mostly at night to be sure he was safe as he had to have one leg out of the bed due to his bad leg which was tricky keeping him in his own bed with no hospital bed as it wasn’t workable in his case and also the medication he was on was very strong, i kept dad safe from any falls in the night and have no regrets with the care I gave dad, he said thank you for everything you do for me x I’d love to help you or your loved one have the same care and attention as my own dad, with upmost respect, stories read, help with crosswords, jigsaws, colouring books, watching period dramas or anything from the good old days, feeding, watering and watching the birds, I know exactly how you feel in these adapting times. My love and drive in this life is to help others, it always has been especially after looking after my Dad. I do have a nutritional background which has been a passion for the past 15 years and still ongoing alongside my ambulance care assistant and community carer. I Look forward to having a friendly chat with you for your tailored needs and wishes for you or your loved one.
