 BH15 1RJ 131688 Hi my name is Karlene but usually my colleagues call me Kay. I am from the lovely sunny island of Trinidad and Tobago. I have been in the health care profession for over 20 years. I’ve worked in the hospital and this is where I gained most of my knowledge, training and experience and this is where my passion and motivation grew tremendously in caring for others. I have always taken caring very seriously and as such have devoted myself not only to ensure the health of the patient but also their happiness. I believe all clients should be treated equally with respect and dignity. I am a jovial, empathetic and devoted individual who takes my clients needs very passionately and it gives me comfort knowing my clients are contented. I’m currently working one to one with a young client with autism and learning disabilities, I am always willing to broaden my spectrum and further my career in the health care profession. I am fully vaccinated . Over all I am very hard working, committed and am always willing to learn more, as this is a passion that I hold true to my heart.

 BH12 5HT 262948 I have worked in Care for 10 years and realised that this is where I find the most joy meeting clients and learning more about them. By doing so, I am able to provide the best experiences for them to enjoy their interests and hobbies, making them feel like they are in control of their day to day choices. My first exposure to Care was when I volunteered a Care Home in Chile where we spent our time assisting with meals, feeding, clearing up, then doing activities such a playing games, knitting, crafts, also manicures for the ladies and nail cutting for the men. This was the deciding point in my life where I realised my passion is to Care for individuals, always trying to make it fun and varied. I am very patient and accommodating, always keeping the next person in mind. Having done all levels of training in the industry, I can utilise those skills to ensure I complete my tasks safely and effectively. I like to approach my Care as if I am caring for my own Mom and Dad, I would do anything to ensure they are well cared for and lack for nothing. I have worked with clients with Alzheimers and Dementia, Parkinsons, Stroke and challenged mobility. I have assisted clients in end of life care and ensured the family was kept informed at all times. In all these cases I work well with third parties, GPs, Physiotherapists, District Nurses, Palliative team, Specialist therapists (speech) My typical day would be ensure my client is assisted with their personal care and is well groomed. I am able to provide a nail cutting services and make sure they look their best, ensuring they have been given the choice of what they would like to wear. I would then prepare any meals, administer medication and ensure there are sufficient drinks so they stay well hydrated through the day. I am more than happy to then complete any home chores, put on the washing, change bedding, hoover, empty bins, and ensure the home is pristine. If I need to leave a snack for later, that will be left ready for when required. If the client is wanting to go out to any activities, or to do some shopping, I have a full clean driving licence and will happily take my client out to their favourite coffee shop for their most enjoyed treats. Before I became a Carer, I worked in Regulation in an office environment, and since I have done Care, it has made me realise how valuable and precious our lives are and to be able to give the next person the opportunity to live their lives their way and to the make it as fulfilling as possible. I love entertaining, cooking and travelling, which is another way to meet people from all walks of life, discover the interesting foods they eat, and just to learn about the history of their country. This has proved beneficial being a Carer because I can always share my travel stories and prepare meals differently to make it all the more interesting. Having "crafternoon" sessions, is another way I enjoy engaging with my clients ensuring they are improving their fine motor skills, it improves their self esteem and will bolster their mood. It is always lovely to have a sense of achievement. I would love to hear from you, so do get in touch. Thank you.

 BH22 9TL 165266 Hi, my name is Kev. I have been involved in private care work for two years now. Before that I worked for the Ambulance Service NHS Trust for thirteen years, working on front-line emergency ambulances as an Emergency Care Assistant (ECA). Before that I worked as non-emergency ambulance crew for three years. During my ambulance career I encountered pretty much everything that can happen to a human being in life (and, unfortunately, death). My day-to-day role was being part of a front-line NHS emergency ambulance crew and responding to emergencies as needed. I attended everything from mental health crises, to life-threatening medical emergencies, to serious and fatal trauma. My role over the years also gave me a vast experience of dealing with non-emergency work which could range from people calling us out just to talk to someone due to loneliness; people calling for clarification on medication or smaller chronic health needs; even someone who needed some advice on using their new telephone! I dealt with a whole array of departments within the spectrum of the health system - GP’s (both patients own and out of hours), hospital wards, social services, mental health teams, safeguarding teams etc. My work was often challenging and I became very adept at using the resources available to me but also thinking outside the box and often taking unorthodox routes to gain the best outcome for a patient. Before leaving the Ambulance Service I was offered the role of carer for a lady who had severe mental health problems and would not/could not provide adequate care for herself. During this role I worked closely with mental health nurses, to whom the lady was known. We developed a system of care, through trial and error and slowly establishing trust. It was an organic process that took into account the lady’s fragile mental health and the requisites for adhering to at least her basic needs. I was told after working with the lady for some time that the team had seen the most progress in her for the seven years they had known her. Unfortunately she passed away after a short illness and I was again looking for a suitable client. Shortly after I was put in contact with a man who had autism and early-onset dementia. The family of the man had been trying for a number of years to find a suitable carer for him but, due to the difficulties of his autism, complex stoma needs and then dementia, they had struggled to find anyone to stick around. I bonded with this chap straight away and over the course of the next several months we formed a close bond. Sadly the chap became ill and was unwilling to accept any form of medical help during hospitalisation. He deteriorated quickly and was taken to a hospice for palliative care, where I stayed with him and his family for over a week until he passed away. Recently I have been working with a couple of clients simultaneously. One is a chap who had been referred to me via the mental health team as someone who I might be able to help with. This man had developed acute mental health problems and his family were struggling to understand and cope with the situation, meaning that basic day-to-day functions were not being taken care of. I visited him a few days a week to give him some company, companionship, hopefully some laughs! The other is a lady with complexities resulting from her dementia. I now find myself looking for suitable clients that I think I could bring something of value to. My work with the most difficult patients and situations during my ambulance work has given me a rare ability to deal with those clients/patients/families that have, for want of a better term, ‘slipped through the net’ and find it almost impossible to retain the services of a carer. I seem to have found myself using a mixture of my character, temperament and long and wide-ranging experience within my ambulance career to work with those people whose care needs are a little more diverse or different to others. I always loved the challenge of trying to get a positive outcome from a difficult situation or person. This has now filtered down into my current working practices and I enjoy meeting people who are otherwise deemed to be problematic or even impossible to deal with. A lot of situations can be defused and made better with a sense of humour, I have always found. I try to have a laugh with the people I work with as well as listening to them and trying to anticipate their needs. My range of experience/skills are listed in my profile, but I believe those little green tabs don’t fully cover the qualities needed to be an effective carer and there is no substitute for compassion, understanding and patience. I have old-school values when it comes to working with clients and I believe in being open, honest, respectful and treating clients with dignity. I have a very flexible approach to working, with regards to hours and needs and am always willing to talk and chip in if someone needs help. I am willing to provide basic grooming and personal hygiene care, also basic housekeeping needs, including shopping. I drive and am more than willing to take clients for a day out somewhere for a change of scene. I am very experienced in dealing with medications; administration, keeping up-to-date records and organising nomad/dosette boxes etc. I am also more than happy to perform medical observations and liaise with any departments that would need to be updated/informed etc. My medical background places me well to be around in the event of accidents/injuries/falls etc. One of my biggest enjoyments is cooking and I am more than happy to provide meals (either ‘meals-on-wheels’ varieties or fresh home-cooked) and make up batches of meals if required/wanted. I am/have always been a pet owner and am very happy to care for pets too. I have many hobbies and am, by nature, a naturally curious person and love to listen to people talking about their experiences and views. I have excellent references available. If you think I could bring something to your particular situation or needs then please contact me and we can chat about it.
