Hello and thank you for your interest in my page. I am friendly, patient, and supportive and love to laugh at myself. I embrace new experiences and challenges that help people live active and fulfilling lives but most importantly, I truly love my work. I know change and its challenges are a natural part of life; that everyone given time, age or circumstance will be in need of support when life does not easily allow for the difference. So I offer my help to you. I have spent many years within the Independent and Supported Living Health Care Systems in B. C. as a Home Health Care provider, Special Education Assistant and as a Community and Mental Health Support Worker. I was trained in hospitals, supported care facilities, independant living homes and public schools. My primary work has been in private homes of clients in support of their independant living or as additional support to clients seeking to transition to more independant living options. My employers are my clients. As an employee, I will bring with me everything I have gained over a mature lifetime, understanding fully what respect, dignity and support in maintaining as much independence and identity truly means. Its your life, you are the boss. If you have any questions about my knowledge or qualifications, I am happy to meet with you and review your concerns. I will provide a CRC with Interpol vulnerable persons check, ICBC Drivers Abstract, certifications and references upon request. I am interested in part time employment that is a good fit for both of our needs. Take care and stay safe. Kay.
