My name is Tsungirirai, but I prefer to be called Tsungi for short. I am a respectful, friendly, compassionate, kind, hardworking, reliable, and trustworthy person. I have more than 16 years of experience working in the care industry, primarily as a support worker/carer for individuals with acquired brain injuries, traumatic brain injuries, dementia, learning disabilities, and autism. Caring for others is in my nature, and I love what I do.
I am a calm, patient, and friendly individual who is approachable. Throughout my career, I have developed excellent communication skills in both writing and verbally. I am a quick learner, willing to acquire new skills. Over the years, I have completed a range of training, including NVQ Level 2, emergency first aid training, manual handling, food hygiene, infection control, PEG feeding, medication transcribing, fire safety, and lone working.
For the past 12 years, I have worked with young adults with acquired brain injuries, supporting them with rehabilitation in the comfort of their own homes. I have also worked with adults with learning disabilities and autism, assisting them in living as independently as possible. This includes providing support with personal care, washing, dressing, grooming, toileting, feeding, cooking, cleaning, shopping, attending medical appointments, and accessing the community.
I offer cooking and meal preparation plans to promote healthy eating and a balanced diet. I excel at working with multidisciplinary teams and various organisations to support individuals' wellbeing. I enjoy outdoor activities, such as going for walks in the community.
