I have 9 years experience working in care in different aspect’s and working with a wide variety of needs. I started my career in care in a small, personal residential home and worked my way up to help to ensure the smooth running of the home by working closely with the homes Directors, Manager and Healthcare professionals such as Doctors, District Nurses, Community Psychiatrist Nurses, Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists and most importantly our lovely residents and their family! I have worked for community care companies however I am now working in a care home 2 days a week on 12 hour shifts. I offer my care services privately on my days I am not working at the home. I have built such lovely relationships with all those I care for and with their families too! I have experience, but not restricted too, working with the elderly, dementia, reduced mobility, mental health, challenging behaviour and learning difficulties. I have a diploma in Health and Social Care and I have The Care Certificate. I am experienced and keep up to date with all relevant training such as Moving and Handling, Trips and Falls, Safeguarding, Food Safety, Medication, Dementia, End of Life, Pressure Care, Fire Safety and more.
I am a friendly, reliable, trustworthy, compassionate and caring person by nature. I like to build a good rapport with those I care for and with their family. I understand how difficult some situations can be and I may be able to offer you some support by caring for yourself or your loved one to enable you to continue with day to day tasks, work commitments or needing a load taken off - I understand this.
I am passionate about delivering high standards of care and I have a good understanding of individuality - not ‘one size fits all!’
I treat those I care for with upmost respect, dignity and confidentiality. I love to help others and to put a smile on faces where I can, I find this really rewarding and it gives me a good sense of achievement. I love doing what I do and visiting my lovely customers, it doesn’t feel like ‘work’
