I am a mature lady now but I came to England in my late teens. I have been Care and support worker since 2014. Most of my clients I have cared for for 5-6 years in domiciliary care .I have been a Carer for 11 years. Some clients had physical issues some mental. Some just needed companionship. I have been told one of my strengths is good communication. I did a short English language course in Brighton in Sussex where I fell in love with England. I went back to Finland after my course back to grammar school. Then when little older I returned to England this time to London where I lived in Central London for decades. I have a grown up daughter now and I stay with her sometimes. I did domiciliary care for nearly 7 years in Surrey where we moved eventually but now I do mostly Live in care. I have cared for people with many different issues over the years some younger than myself some 100 and even over. Some just wanted companionship or running the household. I have experience of Parkinsons Disease End of life care Dementia Down Syndrome Autistic Spectrum Disorder to name a view I have been told by my Care Manager that I have good communication skills. I have no prejudice. I respect others and expect it from others. I returned to England to London this time where I lived and worked for decades. Then I moved to Surrey. My interests are anything to do with the house. I like to improve my surroundings. House and Garden is one of my favourite magazines. I go to auctions and antique fairs and art exhibitions, I love music and dancing from Classic FM to Pop. I have even tried Flamenco and Salsa.I am also interested in Current Affairs. I like cars and driving but also walking , I could not live without TV. I need to see what is happening in the world and I enjoy shows like Strictly Come Dancing and some of the soaps and documentaries. In my care work I truly care and I follow person centred care. To me care is not just a job. However I work within professional boundaries. I have cared for many amazing people and of course sadly some are not with us anymore. One of my clients was 100. I was proud to attend her big party with 100 others and managed to even get a card to her from her favourite TV personality and politician in addition to the one from the amazing Her Majesty,s ' . Early this year I moved into Live In care . My daughter is grown up and lives in Wimbledon . I sometimes stay with her, Her father has passed away.. Experience in Parkinsons Dementia Bipolar Aspergers MS Sight and Hearing issues End of life care I truly care and offer person centred care.
