"I began my career in 2008 as a student and completed a placement in a residential home after qualifying for NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care. I was offered a position in the same home, where I worked for two years, and subsequently worked as a live-in carer for another two years. Following this, I spent four years in the community caring for clients with autism and spinal injuries. I joined NHSP in 2017 after qualifying with Level 3 in Health and Social Care, where I work across various wards, including Dementia, stroke, and spinal care. In all these wards, I support patients with their daily needs, promoting independence, respecting their values, and fostering dignity and diversity. My responsibilities include managing commodes, bedpans, catheters, stoma bags, pressure sore areas, blood pressure observations, blood sugar levels, and PEG feeding. I also worked in the NHS Trust for 11 months before resigning to remain up to date with NHSP banking. I enjoy communicating with patients, creating activities, and supporting them in achieving their goals."

"Dear Patient/Family Member, Thank you for looking at my profile, and please do watch my short video. I'd be happy to answer any questions you may have, so please get in touch via the platform. Additionally, I'm willing to negotiate my rates to meet your budgetary needs, so feel free to discuss this with me, as I am flexible and easy-going. I have spent five years at Liverpool Medical School and ten years working as a Healthcare Assistant. I have both theoretical and practical experience caring for many individuals with differing conditions, ranging from Parkinson's to autism, to name a few. While at medical school, I completed numerous hospital rotations, including obstetrics, gynaecology, orthopaedics, paediatrics, cardiovascular, respiratory, gastrointestinal, and dermatology. I love helping and uplifting people, and I truly appreciate having the best job in the world! I especially enjoy supporting the elderly and love listening to their fascinating stories from the past. I currently care for many individuals with dementia at various stages and with different behavioural patterns. Mental wellbeing is particularly important to me, so I always strive to present myself with a smile, compassion, and empathy. I take the time to understand your needs and will do things your way, tailored to suit you best! I adopt a holistic approach as a Healthcare, Support, and Wellbeing Specialist. In my spare time, I enjoy walking my dog in lovely places, reading, and socialising with friends when I can find the time. I'm a quick learner, so I will make it my priority to understand your routine and preferences. I will always strive to make you happy and go out of my way to ensure this. Please feel free to contact me for a chat or for further information and advice, as I am more than happy to share my knowledge and experience. Thank you for considering me; I know this process can be stressful, but your effort is greatly appreciated."
