In my professional career spanning 7 years, I have devoted my time and energy to offering care and support to senior citizens and adults grappling with disabilities. My chosen line of work has allowed me to extend daily assistance to these individuals in a variety of ways, including providing personal care-- an umbrella term that envelops tasks such as bathing, dressing, and grooming. In tandem with the aforementioned responsibilities, I've also undertaken the role of meal prepping, ensuring the dietary needs of my patients are met accurately and efficiently. Another key aspect of my job includes medication reminders to ensure that the prescribed dosage is delivered to the patients at the correct time. Fostering friendship, mental stability, and a sense of companionship is also a crucial part of what I do. Additionally, I assist with mobility, ensuring that adults under my care are transported safely and comfortably within their homes or even outside where necessary. Adding to this, I also tend to the chores around the house, ensuring cleanliness and order, making the living space more conducive for recovery and everyday living. Providing transportation for medical appointments or any other travel needs is also a part of my duties. I have the experience of caring for individuals diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, Parkinson’s disease and those who are in the recovery period post-stroke. I've also worked with other health conditions. In terms of my educational background--I have successfully completed two years of Nursing in university, laying down a strong medical foundation for the care I provide. Alongside this, I have also studied Business for an additional two years, equipping me with the organizational and management skills to perform my duties more effectively. As far as certifications go, I hold valid certifications in First Aid and CPR, ensuring prompt and accurate responses during any medical emergencies. I also hold a valid Class 5 driver’s license, ensuring that I'm able to perform the task of transportation safely and efficiently. I am open to travel and if required, relocation, for work purposes. I am always willing to adapt to the needs of my role to provide the best care possible for the individuals I support. 7 years of experience Some nursing
