Over recent years I have gained valuable experience providing care and companionship to my grandparents. This includes assisting with daily activities such as shopping, meal preparation, housekeeping, post operative care, medication reminders, transportation to appointments or just out and about. I love being able to take them out and do things they wouldn’t be confident in doing without me there. I have also been a source of emotional support, especially during times of worry when my grandads spent some time in the hospital. In addition to my hands-on experience, I am qualified in emergency first aid and CPR. I will take time to really understand each individual’s specific needs, preferences and routines. I always maintain a calm and positive demeanour in any situation and these traits allow me to meet the needs of elderly individuals with compassion and respect. My strong sense of responsibility and wanting to improving the quality of life for others means I’m well suited for providing the highest possible care.
