| I began my work in aged care at the beginning of this year after a decade of self employment. I work in the areas of community access and social support, domestic assistance, respite care and conversational therapy. I am currently studying a Cert IV in Leisure & Health after transferring from the Community Services stream and have spent the past 2 years as a founding volunteer member of a local mental health & suicide prevention group. I believe in a holistic approach to care, and have a avid interest in good food, essential oils, massage, trail walking, gardening, swimming, reading and fluid painting, while making my own range of heat packs and growing my own fruits and vegetables. I like art, photography, coffee and movies, and am looking forward to advancing my skills in individual care and natural therapies. I have experience in dementia, parkinsons, hoarding, respite and domestic assistance, with additional familial experience with mental health and disability.

| I am Patricia, 20 years of age. I am a student visa holder here in Australia. I am taking up Certificate III in Individual Support at Imagine Education Australia. With my characteristics, I am hardworking, passionate, kind, reliable, and responsible person. With my experiences, I currently started to volunteer at Sundale aged care facility for companionship and assistance to our elderly. During my volunteer, I have observed how the facility should be maintained clean and organized. Also, seen how foods are well placed and hygienic, and how it should be done.

| Hello! My previous experience is 3 yrs with Houseproud Cleaning, 1 1/2 yrs private cleaning. I have a good experience with caring for elderly as was looking after my mother before her passing 5 yrs prior. Animals are no problem as have quite a few myself. I am keen to assist in any way possible as I am very aware of elderly needing help and would love to be there to assist them in any way. I have my own vehicle (Ford BA wagon) which is large and is comfortable and would make it easy for elderly to travel if needed. I am open to all assistance. I may not have full qualifications as present, but would be very keen to gain the qualifications and make it my full time goal. I am a strong woman and have done very large homes in cleaning in the Brookfield area. Travelling is not an issue for me. If you have any further questions, I can be reached on my mobile. Kind regards, Mrs Robyn
