About Rebecca

47 years old
I have been working in elderly care for the past five years, primarily in assisted living facilities and providing home care services. My responsibilities include assisting with mobility and personal hygiene, and providing companionship. I am trained in first aid and have specialized training in dementia care. Empathy is crucial in my work, allowing me to understand and respond to the emotional needs of the elderly. Patience helps me manage repetitive tasks and maintain a calm demeanor, even in challenging situations. One memorable experience was helping a resident with severe mobility issues regain some independence through a tailored exercise program. Seeing her progress and confidence grow was incredibly rewarding. Working in elderly care has taught me the value of patience and the importance of listening. It has also deepened my appreciation for the wisdom and life experiences of the elderly. My commitment to elderly care remains strong, and I aspire to continue improving the quality of life for the elderly. I am currently pursuing further training in geriatric care to enhance my skills.
