| For the past nine years, I have been the sole carer for my aging mother, who suffers from arthritis and hypertension. My responsibilities included managing her medication, assisting with personal care, preparing nutritious meals to help control her blood pressure, and supporting her with mobility. This experience has given me valuable skills in providing compassionate, hands-on care, attention to detail, and the ability to manage health-related tasks. In addition to caring for my mother, I have also volunteered at a local hospital during my free time. This allowed me to contribute to the community, offering assistance and support to patients while aiming to brighten their day and put smiles on their faces. This has deepened my passion for helping others and strengthened my commitment to providing empathetic care.
