I started my career in care with Essex county council and completed the NVQ2 there doing domiciliary support for about 20 years Also did a year of live in care when my sons left home. Am now living in Pakefield , suffolk and looking forward to finding some lovely clients to support on an hourly basis .I do have special interest in dementia and have completed some training to better understand the condition. I love that feeling of going home knowing I have helped someone today. I am patient, kind, sympathetic, understanding and have lots of empathy and a good listener, a can do attitude with a cheerful positive approach to most situations and am happy to get stuck in to jobs that need doing. I am calm and resilient, very used to this and happy to work on my own initiative while always taking into account the need and wishes of the people I am supporting.
