Over the years, I have enrolled in e-learning courses on Safeguarding, Health and Safety in the Workplace, and Safeguarding Children and Vulnerable Adults from Abuse and Exploitation. I am aware of the best practices to promote equality and diversity in caregiving. I understand that I must take into account the rights of all individuals and groups, and I have always considered this in my dealings with clients, both adults and children. I always strive to ensure that I treat everyone equally, irrespective of race, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, belief, or age. This commitment has been reinforced by the courses on equality and diversity that I have attended in the past. I am fully aware of the current issues in social care in general, as stipulated by the QCS, and I strive to implement these principles in my caregiving activities and my work with people in general. In all the roles I have filled, I have a strong presence and have formed positive working relationships with everyone. I am a dedicated carer, educator, and trainer, always striving to perform my duties in a professional manner. I am keen to respond to feedback and implement strategies to improve my work and learning. Having worked in several organisations, I respond well to and uphold the ethos of different organisational settings. I have actively participated in professional development, departmental meetings, and training, and I am always willing to share good practices with my peers. I also possess strong administrative skills, reinforced by my proficiency in MS Office. I am able to work efficiently within a team to ensure the proper maintenance of all necessary administrative documents, both current and past. **KEY SKILLS** Catheter Care; Incontinence; Parkinson’s Disease; Stroke; Physical Disabilities; Diabetes; Multiple Sclerosis; Visual and Hearing Impairments; Epilepsy; Dementia; Checking temperature, blood pressure, and blood sugar levels. I am currently looking for a regular live-in client within a maximum travelling distance of two hours from my area in Dunstable, provided that travelling expenses are covered both ways by my future clients. When delivering live-in care, I prefer to have a two-hour break each day, but I can be flexible regarding when this is taken to accommodate the care of the client. During my two weeks of downtime from live-in care, I am seeking regular clients to deliver either three or four waking or sleeping nights within a five-mile radius of my area in Dunstable.
