| Hello, Thank you for taking the time to look at my profile. I became a young carer at the age of 15 to help my grandmother with my grandad who was diagnosed with motor neuron disease. It was from then I decided I wanted to help people who needed that little extra support. I have worked within the care sector for 6 years now. I have worked within special needs and residential care. As well as this I have worked with residents with dementia. I always say to my residents/family members I treat the residents who are in my care as if they was my own grand parents. Because I understand how being under the care of someone you do not know can be rather challenging for that individual as well as embarrassing for them. I am very much one for promoting independence. I have seen alot over the years within working in care homes where the independence of the service user is taken away from them. This is why I always encourage individuals to do as much as they can. Unless they are physically unable to do it or is within the care plan that they need assistance.

| I am positive and kind worked personally and paid positions in all sectors of care homes :rehabilitation, elderly respite, dementia care, nursing care, autistic supported living homes and homes for other mental illness such as bipolar and Schizophrenia. Can sleep in some of the week of you live further afield that's no problem.
