I have also worked in a residential care home for for two years which has given me experience in more advanced dementia as well. I work only with the elderly and love giving them companionship, taking them out and making their lonely days more enjoyable. I help with all the basic light household duties and personal care where necessary, I have a carer certificate and L2 & L3 equivalent to NVQ’s in Dementia care. Dementia is a devastating diagnosis for any family to receive and I specialise in this area. I am happy to do respite for a few hours in a day if family carer needs a respite so they can have that much needed break to relax or go shopping. I am happy to work with pets in the household and travel within a radius of about 10 miles. I am also fully computer literate if needed. Non smoker to work in smoke free homes only and no evenings or nights. I concentrate on the areas of Sidmouth, Honiton and cullompton post codes.

Excellent

Susan is ace! Dad’s first carer, she has been a huge support. She’s practical, precise, punctual & full of knowledge & common sense. Not afraid of any job, and while officially caring for dad, Susan made a friend of my painfully shy, sometimes unpredictable mum who suffers from dementia. Gaining mum’s trust has been an immense plus for us. She decided to ‘help her’ with simple housework tasks, when she saw how dispirited mum was, perceiving she might lose her purpose in the home. Susan is ace!

Excellent

Susan is a wonderful carer who cared for my father and also my husband. I can’t speak highly enough of her and she definitely deserves to be carer of the month. Julie
