Have been doing care for over 15 years originally from Zimbabwe and had been a teacher for 14 years. Relocated to United Kingdom in October 2000.I have supported the elderly, 35 years upwards ,Couples, singles, disabled with varied health conditions in their own homes allowing them to remain independent for as long as they can be. My first client was a student at Aston University in Birmingham who had Celebral palsy (sp)My goal has always been to make a difference in somebody's life, if they had one hand I would be the other hand that they wish they could have, can't be perfect but I try my best to be of help. I have experience with peg feeding, catheters, giving personal care, feeding, transfers with different equipment eg hoists ,triangular boards, rackets etc, end of life care ,MS ,showering ,dressing ,meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, medication ,shopping and ordering medication ,companionship amongst other things. I am allergic to animal fur so can't even use the pillows filled with feathers. I can't support smokers as I struggle withcigarette smoke. I would say in conclusion am a kind ,patient but also cautious in terms of maintaining the rules and regulations of care ethics. I like reading ,gardening, walking, eating out ,watching television, going to movies,swimming ,going to church ,singing hymns, playing instruments like the organ/keyboard and I do like travelling like going on holidays.
