▶ Watch Intro

"My name is Precious, I have worked with the elderly in a care home for 7 years that was from 2014 to 2021. Most of my patients had early and late stages of Dementia. From 2018 up to date I also worked in the community doing palliative care. I find this interesting because I get to meet different people from different cultures and backgrounds. During covid time I was motivated to start my nursing journey seeing how nurses helped a lot of people in such difficult times. I am currently studying access to nursing looking into starting University soon. Working in the community has taught me how to give person centred care. Besides personal care I can also provide other duties like shopping, washing and transportation. I come from a very strong Christian background and I enjoy going to church on Sundays. I would be very glad to provide my care services to the families in need of my help."
