"NEGOTIABLE RATES I am prepared to travel a radius of a one-hour drive. I have had two COVID-19 vaccinations, plus a third-dose booster. I am a qualified Registered Nurse with 44 years of experience and have been working as a full-time Agency Registered Nurse for 8 years. I work in NHS hospitals, private hospitals, and occasionally in nursing homes. As a general registered nurse, I work in surgical and medical wards. I have been a nurse for 44 years, part of which I spent abroad for 22 years as a Registered Nurse and Midwife. I have been in the UK for 24 years and worked in the NHS on a stroke ward for 13 years. (I intend to retire from hospital nursing soon.) My skills include male and female catheter insertion, nasogastric insertion, PEG care, regulating pump feeds, blood collection, personal care, prevention of pressure sores, wound care, stoma care, and the administration of medications both orally and through injectable, intravenous, and subcutaneous methods. I assist patients/clients with activities of daily living, provide holistic care, and support the elderly with dementia, stroke, trauma, and rehabilitation. My hobbies include gardening; I enjoy growing my own vegetables, music, attending church, reading, sightseeing, and travelling on holiday. I am sociable and extroverted. I love people."

🏅 Top-Rated Local Carer

"I have over 11 years of experience working as a carer. I am a patient, kind, and reliable person, and I enjoy helping others in their daily lives. I have worked with people who have limited mobility and with those at the end of life. As a live-in carer, I understand how important it is to create a safe, calm, and comfortable environment. I always strive to treat each person with respect and dignity, and to support their individual needs. I am also a former teacher, which has helped me develop good communication skills and a great deal of patience. Additionally, I am trained in nursing. Even though I did not work as a nurse, the knowledge I gained helps me every day in my caring role. I believe that being a carer is not only about helping with physical needs, but also about offering companionship. I enjoy talking with people, listening to them, and supporting them to feel valued and not alone. In my free time, I enjoy photography, gardening, travelling, and practising mindfulness. These activities help me stay calm and positive in my work. Caring is not just a job for me; it is something I truly care about. I look forward to the opportunity to work as a live-in carer and to make a positive difference in someone’s life. Kind regards, Angela"
