Summary

I pride myself of being a compassionate and caring person who is always willing to help others in any way I can. I am a detail-oriented with strong practical skills and a perfectionist approach to cleanliness and organisation. I have excellent communication, listening, and note-keeping abilities, and the ability to cope well in high-pressure situations. I am physically fit, trustworthy, and reliable, with a genuine passion for supporting others and creating meaningful connections. As well as working as part of a team I enjoy working independently, maintaining respect, tact, and a good sense of humour in all interactions. I am always keen to learn, and in starting a career in care I hope to find an increased sense of purpose knowing that I am able to help people who are vulnerable maintain their dignity and independence in their own homes.
