Job overview

  • My Uncle was recommended to wear a catheter. The task was not easy but had no option and made a decision to help him. I took it upon myself to make sure that he attends hospital clean and ontime. He has taken his food and medication. I used to dispose and change his catheters. He is since off the catheter.
