Summary

As a carer, I maintain composure during emergencies and offer a range of services to ensure client's comfort and safety. I am committed to the challenges ahead and believe my positive attitude and determination will lead to success in my career.

I am a dedicated and compassionate professional with extensive experience in caregiving. My journey as a caregiver began in 2016 when I provided care for my diabetic grandfather, working alongside my mother to ensure he received the attention and support he needed. Over the past eight years, I have worked as a school carer, Voluntary Care Assistant, and Care Assistant, assisting clients with various medical and physical challenges. My expertise includes incontinence management, moving and handling, personal hygiene assistance, meal preparation, laundry, and vital signs monitoring. I continuously improve my skills through relevant training and have completed courses in First Aid, Health and Safety, Infection Control, and more.

My goal is to continue developing my skills as a care assistant with dedication, honesty, and integrity while displaying professionalism in all my duties. I aim to work in an organization that values its employees and fosters a caring environment. Confidentiality and upholding patient dignity are of utmost importance to me.
