Revlynne R.
Having worked for the NHS Rapid Response team Exeter and HCA Seaton auxillery Bank nurse, this has kept me busy and good grounding. Moving up and down the country working at various nursing and residential care homes. ( as a forces wife) in auxiliary supporting roles and working for Seaton enablement enabling patients to stay within there own homes teaching life and living skills, for autistic adults I have seen many challenging situations. I have been a level 3 HCA support worker within the NHS. and been in care for 45 years. I enjoy working independently and taking responsibility, and I am very confident. I look forward to overnight stays with continuity for both the client and I. Clients like continuity and build a trusting and friendly relationship, confident with the same carer . This is particularly important for dementia clients, building confidence and trust is important to me for the client I work with. I have lots of energy and advice for ongoing care. Covid vaccines are up to date to put your mind at rest. Housework i enjoy are as follows: Cleaning, Ironing, well just general hygiene of the property if required through the night, Reading the news from the newspaper, playing cards, scrabble, giving enrichment to client. Discussing photographs of vintage memories. feeding and walking pets. I have a degree in Animal Welfare, diagnostics, and management. I have hands-on experience with Stoma Care, Hoisting both with ceiling track and manual. Glide sheets, manual handling, repositioning, peg feeding, and pressure care experiences. ,I have live in availability throughout the week and weekend at times. XMAS LIVE IN AVAILABLE. I enjoy the company, caring and helping rescue, fundraising for good welfare of companion animals abroad. I have worked for Cats Protection with rehoming and home checks, along with animal welfare checking. I have a happy disposition, work out at the gym as a hobby, enjoy long walks with my own foreign rescue dogs. Have visited numerous foreign destinations. Have a positive outlook. Nothing really phases me with nursing and care and keep up with modern technology and medications. I give 100% to my patients and can bring new ideas to family with nursing technics, only if asked for. Over the years I have worked with Dementia although this is demanding, keeping calm, defusing situations. It is usually the best way. Every situation is different, and every person is an individual. There are some very unfair diseases out there, and each one of us is left to cope with what we are given. Anyway, if I can help just for a chat, no pressure, just a chat we can face time...... well, have just finished after 24 months of looking after a Dementia pt one can't believe just how much a part of your life they have become, you do miss your patients dearly you can enliken it to losing a part of you. Do contact me if even just for a chat of how you move forward, how Curam works or care needs. Revlynne

My name is Steve. I am originally from Manchester and have been living in South Africa for 39 years, my experience in caring ranges from being a companion to personal care, manoeuvring and handling, caring for patients with dementia, Alzheimers,cerebral palsy, and ability to counselling in certain areas, through various church organizations in South Africa. I believe I have the necessary attributes of being an effective carer, eg, compassion, empathy, and have a sympathetic nature. I have basic cooking skills for old English cooking. I am a good listener and have a copious amount of patience. When starting with a new client I prefer to have a settling in period where I get to know the clients needs and there routines and sleeping patterns, once this has been established I than discuss with the clients family members/ representatives the period of care I can deliver. I have a full UK driving licence and I have experience of driving clients own vehicles this can be manual and automatic.
