Please find below a summary of my care work experience and history
I have been a carer with 10yrs.
From ####-#### (#yrs) I worked in a care home setting in Bushey Heath looking after elderly clients with various needs and levels of care.
From 2011-present (5yrs) I have been a private carer working one to one with clients/families in their own home.
I have worked for various families within those 5yrs.I say various because sadly clients pass away and so you have to find work elsewhere.
My longest contract with one of my clients was for 2yrs until her death.I have references that you can contact.
