Hello I am Helen. I have looked after people as a carer in various situations and with various illnesses. My first experience of professional caring was with my County Council where I received excellent training on all sorts of illnesses as well as the mandatory moving and handling training training. Due to working part time I had the opportunity to take up another part time role as a physiotherapy assistant. This position was working with elderly patients transferred from a London Hospital. As well as these appointments I was looking after my parents at a distance ensuring that they had medications at all times. Looking after there bills and any other payments. Ultimately arranging care for my father as his vascular dementia got worse. Moving back to London in 2012 I looked after my next door neighbour in mornings and evenings for a year. It was wonderful year proving that my care skills were still very much alive I love making sure people are comfortable and if I know of anything that help them even more I will try and find out how it can be done. So if you want a compassionate, professional, hardworking carer then I would love to be given the opportunity to work for you.

My name is Anoja. I am kind, having good patience, listening and hard worker. My home country is sri lanka. My mother language is Sinhalese. I can speak English (including writing and reading). I studied for 13 years. My school education was completed in 1982, after that I did a stenography course in an institution called polytechnic, after I completed that course I worked intermittently as a steno/typist clerk in five companies from 1983 to 2012 in sri lanka (more details are mentioned in my application). In 2014 I came to united kingdom and joined as a care worker and got that training. Then I worked in three organizations in the same sector (in short, the work that was entrusted to me and done responsibly - personal care, to get in and out of bed (lifting / moving) using hoists / personal hygiene by showering / bathing / to get dressed and undressed / light general domestic duties as detailed in the care plan or instructed by the management / cooking / feeding / medication and maintaining "mar charts". I am currently still working as a live-in-carer one of the best care agencies in the uk. I am very happy doing this job. that's because my mother is also about 98 years old. even if my mother is not with me, I can get that happiness by looking the elderly people. Thank you

I am a kind, caring and compassionate carer having worked in care for more than 15 years.

My most recently role was with an elderly lady suffering with Alzheimer's and I provided full support in hygiene, toileting, eating, cooking, cleaning, and administering medication.
