My name is Cynthia, a devoted and energetic Personal Support Worker with over three years of experience compassionately supporting individuals in need. I hail from the rich cultural lineage of Africa and am a proud wife and mother of two adorable girls. I have always found my calling in taking care and serving others, which forms the fundamental core of my profession. Throughout my career, I have developed and nurtured key skills including assisting individuals with daily living activities, health monitoring, efficient and compassionate communication, and most importantly, adapting quickly to changing situations to provide optimal care. I'm available to provide my services during evenings and nights throughout the week. As I have pursued an educational journey through college, coupled with an associate master's degree in relevant health care disciplines including Personal Support Worker (PSW) and Home Support Worker certificates, along with indispensable First Aid and CPR certificates, I am well-equipped to ensure the best care for your loved ones. Additionally, I am open to relocating and can travel as the job demands, coupled with my personal vehicle and driver’s license to ensure transportation is never an issue. Having worked with individuals struggling with various diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Dementia, and Cancer among others, I am confident in my ability to provide empathetic care and support. I am proficient with a myriad of necessary duties, ranging from housekeeping and meal preparation to providing medical assistance and support for heavy patient lifting and transfers. I am looking for a full-time Caregiver or Personal Support Worker position, preferably in a home health care setting or retirement homes. And I am more than willing to obtain a police check for your peace of mind. Finally, as an English speaker, I aim to foster clear and open communication with all. My motto in life is simple; ‘Be Humane’. I am always prepared to step beyond my comfort zone and adapt when it comes to fulfilling this motto in serving others. I look forward to assisting you and your loved ones.
