I have worked with elderly people for four years now, who all have had a different range of disabilities. These include dementia, learning disabilities, bipolar, depression and schizophrenia. Throughout my working life I started off as a regular carer and progressed to being a Senior care assistant. Duties that I do on a day to day basis are: Personal care Meal preparation Handle and dispense medication Pressure area care Assist with eating/drinking Maintain a safe living area Contact GP’s
