Healthcare Assistant/Care and Support Worker
Bolton, Manchester,United Kingdom
Summary
I am a compassionate, caring and diligent individual with a strong passion for providing support and care to those in need. I do so by empowering them to become independent thereby having the capability of getting things done by themselves with little or no support/supervision. And possess excellent interpersonal skill, which allows to connect with both adults and children, ensuring that their needs are met with empathy and professionalism. With experience in healthcare support, human resource management, and community outreach, I have developed a well-rounded skill set that allows me to provide effective care and ensure the smooth-running of teams and projects. My goal is to contribute my skill in a support worker role thereby making a meaningful difference in people's lives through care, dedication and attention to details.
