Over the years, I have supported elderly clients, individuals with dementia, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, mobility challenges, and those requiring overnight or complex care. My care experience includes personal care, bathing, dressing, continence support, meal preparation, medication prompts, safe mobility assistance, hoist usage, repositioning, companionship, and maintaining a clean, safe environment. I am committed to protecting each client’s dignity, independence and emotional wellbeing while providing reliable, patient and respectful care. I currently hold a valid PVG membership (No. 2302 1758 2597 8417) and SSSC registration (No. 4145222, valid until April 2029), showing my dedication to professional standards and safeguarding. I also have extensive training, including Dementia, Learning Disabilities, Basic Life Support, Infection Control, Safeguarding, Person-Centred Care, Health & Safety, COSHH, Equality & Diversity, and more. Having worked as a Personal Assistant, Night Healthcare Assistant, Support Worker and Domestic Assistant, I bring strong observational skills, excellent communication, accurate record-keeping, and consistent reliability. I am confident in supporting clients with varying needs—from companionship and light tasks to full personal care, mobility assistance, and complex routines. I also hold a full UK driving licence and have my own vehicle, allowing me to assist with community access, appointments, shopping, and social activities. I work with patience, empathy and professionalism at all times, and I aim to create a calm, safe and supportive environment for every client. My goal is to help people remain independent, comfortable and happy in their own homes, while giving families reassurance and peace of mind.
