I'm experienced carer looking for a new live-in care position. I started with care jobs back in 2005 and over the years I was carer for clients with: muscular dystrophy, spinal injury, motor neurone disease, MS, Parkinsons, dementia, learning disability, epilepsy. I prefer clients with physical or mental type of disability rather than elderly clients. With my last client I was working via a care agency which I been with 4 + years and decided to move on, to try find a new client privately or via different agency.
I'm a driver with my own car, driving in UK (with gaps) since 2007, also I've been driving a wheelchair adapted vehicles, manual and automatic.
In my free time I like going out (parks, day trips, city centres, cinemas), I like doing walks, biking, jogging, swimming in my free time when on shift. My interests are mountaineering, trekking in National parks, freediving + snorkeling, travelling and photograpy; basically spending time in nature. I hope it could be useful for similar type of personality like myself.
I'm fine with pets if they are around, non smoker.

My care experiences include working with:
muscular dystrophy
spinal injury (C4/5)
dementia, Parkinsons
Motor Neurone Disease
multiple sclerosis
epilepsy
learning disability

Some of the related skills: use of ceiling and standing hoists, wheelchair adapted vehicle, bowel care (insertion of suppositories, manual evacuation), night time bed positioning, intermittent catheters, urinal bags handling,...
That would be in short about me, more details in my CV.
