My hobbies are meeting people, playing volleyball, reading, cooking, spending time with family and watching rugby. I've been a carer for just over 12 years now. I've worked mainly in care homes, nursing homes, and community work. My work consists of continence care, support with medication administration, meal planning and preparation, help with chores, and support clients with day to day activities. I have worked with clients that have Dementia, COPD, Stroke, Parkinson's Disease, PEG feeding, Catheter care, Palliative care, and also stoma care. I've done my access to Nursing, Studied Access to Health, Wellbeing and Social Science in Edinburgh College. I am a good carer with empathy. I am able to connect with the client in order to be able to help them. I have a good understanding towards the emotions a client may face as they face new realities. My preference is for live-in positions, ideally 2 weeks on and 1 week off at a time, however this is flexible depending on clients needs and locations, but if these are not available then I am able to do days, nights, waking nights and sleepovers in local areas. I prefer to work for clients in Scotland, but wont mind if I have to travel further, again depending on what is available. I speak fluent English, I don't mind looking after pets. I already have a PVG certificate. I can provide references from previous clients if required.

EH3 9LL 298895 I’m an empathetic, patient, and compassionate support worker with over four years of experience assisting individuals with autism, learning disabilities, and some experience supporting people with degenerative conditions. I always follow a person-centred approach, focusing on building trust, encouraging independence, and creating a positive environment tailored to each individual’s unique needs. I’m highly observant and adaptable, with experience managing dysregulated or challenging behaviours, but also skilled at connecting with a wide variety of personalities and support needs. I’m confident with household tasks, including preparing fresh, nutritious meals inspired by the Mediterranean diet, as I believe food can bring both comfort and well-being. Outside of work, I have a strong connection to nature and enjoy hiking, which helps me stay grounded and energised. Although I don’t currently own a car, I’m an experienced driver and happy to assist with transport when required. I’m passionate about making a genuine difference in people’s lives, and I’m always open to learning, growing, and bringing warmth, respect, and dedication to every person I support.

This has developed my working skills and the ability to work co-operatively with a wide range of multi-disciplinary professional teams. In having that privilege to work alongside with these professionals such as Doctors, therapists, nurses, dentists, dietitians, pharmacists, psychologists and social workers. This has given me an opportunity to have an insight in how the healthcare field works under strict ethical codes of practice and high professional standards, which I feel and think helps to promote person centred caring. All this intertwines with my current employment where the people I support are a priority and the main goal is to improve their lives and daily living in every way possible. Through these work placements, I have developed the knowledge, skills, experience and competences essential for working in the care and domiciliary settings. I have gained the ability to communicate verbally and in writing. I am able to provide a calm and consistent approach whilst being sensitive to the individual service needs of each service user I encounter. l work well as part of a team but can also work individually unsupervised using my own initiative and under pressure whilst at the same time being aware of the support available to me should the need arrive. within the team I pay attention to everyone, take constructive criticism and reflect to my practise. i value others opinion. I have worked with service users with physical, victims of abuse,down syndrome, learning disabilities and mental health problems. This has enhanced my patience and confidence, as a result l am able to socialise with people of all various age, race religion and gender. Some of the qualities l possess include being trustworthy, patient, confident, honest, reliable, smart, punctual, determine, non-judgement , and always have time to spare.l am willing to take any tasks that are presented to me and ensure that they are carried out to the best of my ability. I also poses a leadership skill from an early age of being a class monitor, a prefect in primary, in high school l was a class captain, at college l was a class rep, in my spare time at present lm a the chairperson of board of trustees in a recognised charity in Glasgow and in my present post lm the key worker of my service user. l am a fun healthy firmly with many Interests and hobbies. I like to keep active and have a range of hobbies and interests such as fashion and beauty, travelling and learning about new cultures, passion for food and often provide catering for public functions, planning and organising event,Gardening, Keeping fit through swimming, horse riding and bowling ,Socialising with friends through walking, theatre and cinema. one of my interest has taken me to have a qualification in professional cookery and HND in hospitality management and I graduate in 2022. i did this along as a newly mother and my current job. this was not easy but perseverance see me through. I have managed to overcome the adversity of studying at a higher education level, regardless of being dyslexic and managed to successfully complete my HNC in Social Care course in 2011. I do not succumb to pressure regardless of my dyslexia. It is the hard work and determination that pulled me through. I’m aware of the emotional and cognitive demands of this job. I will manage these demands by workload prioritising, and maintaining a balance of personal life and work. I have no doubt that this is the job I want to do and i have the required qualification and experience. I feel that i know, understand and love my job well ,
